Somewhat strange to hear @bbcnickrobinson haranguing an NHS Consultant for being on “over £100,000” and claiming to channel the feelings of ordinary people. His salary in 2024 was between £345,000 - £349,000. For presenting radio programs. Which never saved anyone’s life?

BINFLUENSING IS REAL One of our neighbours put out the wrong bins this evening and several other houses just copied them. I went to nearest and asked and they said they just copied the people next door. 😂😂😂

The whole world right now is trying to figure out if these posts Donald Trump posted on a social media platform he built for himself means the US is at war with Iran or not

If this were true, what were the Tories doing for the past 14 years? They had plenty of time and the power to act. What did they do? I’d be careful what they wish for. A Public Inquiry might just look at their inaction too?

John Bolton on BBC R4 PM claimed the only ballistic missile attack in history was on Israel by Iran. What were the 3,000 V2s launched at Britain then? No wonder people struggle to understand history and geopolitics when nonsense like this goes unchallenged?

You can't understand the behaviour of US elites - Democrats being too timid, Republicans debasing themselves, bureaucrats who behave like pushovers - without reference to the constant threat of political violence that has come with MAGA. Every day is January 6. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

Newsom: Trump, he's not opposed to lawlessness and violence as long as it serves him. What more evidence do we need than January 6th?

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)
