Just watched Johnny English Strikes Again. What happens in that film is remarkably similar to the world today!

Hard fought for game against the Welsh. Ended up winners. Wales improving. Good to see. But Ireland had it in them to take it, thankfully. A proper test game.

Yesterday my wife Bunty & I had Liz Truss around for a boozy lunch after her successful American visit. We’ve known Liz for many years. After eating, Liz did her usual rendition of ‘Knees Up Mother Brown’ & showed us her musk. She then fell over, blamed the deep state & exited.❤️

This is beyond fucking despicable. Threatening to shut off Starlink to Ukraine, a raped pillaged country (invaded by a dictator that this headcase and his bitch president refuses to condemn) unless they give up their natural resources is the most grim act of coercion I’ve seen.

We may have left the EU in 2016 after lies, misinformation, and promises of prosperity that have not materialised Luckily for us, the EU isn't that far away, it's just next door Anyone else want the UK 🇬🇧 to rejoin the EU 🇪🇺 ?

The UK's anti-protest laws pre-legitimise far right authoritarianism. Labour must repeal them now. My column today. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

So, Farage struts around on stage in the US, slagging off the UK and the EU, blaming anything but Brexit for us being poorer and unhappier and crawling up Trump’s backside… What a repulsive spectacle he is. If you actually could be put in prison here for ‘saying anything’ he’d be my top pick.

For THE LOVE OF GOD, stop taking money from RUSSIANS. We don’t want our politicians OWNED BY RUSSIA. It’s not rocket science & surely by now, we should know better. If you agree, repost.

It is my duty to report that the Daily Mail, through its lawyers RPC, seems to have abandoned its hopeless attempt to bully us into submission with feeble defamation threats.

"Trump Bump" in polls for Zelensky. His approval rating is now MUCH higher than the US president's.

1. European and UK ministers are still talking as if their biggest potential security problem is a withdrawal of US support. But that is not their biggest potential security problem. It’s that, under Trump, the US will back Putin not just diplomatically but also militarily. 🧵

From Dominic Grieve:

Those who claim to be fighting to “save civilisation”, as the Nazis claimed, will destroy it. This was the Holocaust. And no one who understands what civilisation is talks of “saving” it (nor wields chainsaws, throws Nazi salutes, praises mass murderers, denies science, steals, lies and rapes).

They are deliberately crossing the red lines, in order to make the unacceptable commonplace and, eventually, acceptable again.

A whooping 83% of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent J6 rioters. EIGHTY-THREE PERCENT!!!

Trump is on the brink of betraying Ukraine and the UK. Britain must lead in Europe by increasing defence spending immediately and all political parties should get round the table to make that happen. I fear what happens if we don't take this step.

The US may be turning its back on Europe, but could this open a door for Britain to rethink its future? A choice is coming. @eastangliabylines.co.uk

@riotgrandma.bsky.social did it Carol! Your inspiration. Told those in the café I didn’t want an Americano as people might think I supported Trump. My bestie also changed his mind about what to drink. Let’s all do this!

Two years ago, I made the decision to provide free school meals for all state primary school children in London. I’m proud to see the difference it’s made—helping children stay healthy and focused with a nutritious lunch while easing the financial burden on families.

If you've spent decades surrounded all the time by sycophants who owe their lifestyle to you it's little wonder Trump thinks everyone likes him. Cleese is spot on.

Ed Davey comments on Starmer talking to Trump #r4today Acknowledges the difficulty of his position but stresses the need to be firmly honest and to protect our interests. Managing to be both supportive and oppositional. A very welcome change from the twatty point-scoring we get from the Tories.

How Hitler seized power: 1. Create a crisis. 2. Demonize opponents. 3. Declare a state of emergency. 4. Undermine elections. 5. Make the rule of law irrelevant. 6. Rule by decree. If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.
