"Peace for our time...." #Trump #Ukraine #appeasement

The errors of 1938 loom large; weak diplomacy is not an option for dealing with this President. #Trump #Gaza

The language really has to change. Trump and Musk do not work on the basis of legality and illegality, the latter is always an occupational hazard to be overcome. #trump #musk #uspolitics www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

But, but.... fiscal rules. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I hope Starmer has the wit to see this for what it is. I'm not hopeful. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Ten days of Trump, and I'm worn out by the fatuity.

Why? Gutlessness, compromise and negotiation are not options against Trump. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

please share :)

I cannot decipher that word salad of factory workers as pioneers in the wild west...

Trump is deluded at a hitherto unimagined level for a US president... more importantly, it's unlikely to matter to the MAGA crowd when he doesn't deliver.

This inauguration is overdosing in sanctimony, and Trump hasn't even spoken yet...

Goodness. What is this godly bollocks...? #Trump

What an utter pillock this woman is/ www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Same tired justifications; it really is business as usual after all... www.theguardian.com/money/2024/d...

What goes on in Starmer's head? Harking back to Thatcherism with one hand, and dredging up deep statist Trumpian tropes with the other. How depressing; how lacking in vision? #Starmer #civilservice

Are they lamenting the skewered opportunity?

So far beyond farcical, I haven't the words www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

I'm interested in seeing the reading list for this... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

A predictably reactionary statement of intent from Streeting. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

There are some reasonable points here, but mostly it smacks of the usual uninformed, knee-jerk guesswork that permeates any discussion of universities and their value. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
