Byline Times is facing major DDOS (malicious traffic-flooding) issues on our site apparently after this article went live... bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Are congrats in order in a case like this? 🤨

The next Bond movie will be titled "Time to Die Mister Bond, Handcrafted Artisanal Film Movie for Men – Perfecf Christmas Gift and Funny Realistic Spy Gag, Harmless Entertainment Prank for Kids and Adults, Realistic Vanilla Scent 7.9 Ounce Motion Picture (Pack of 1)"

The Daily Star this morning is brutal.

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Sláva Ukrayíni!

Trump is financially beholden to both Musk & Putin…more than a grain of truth!!

Europe doesn't need any more wake-up calls. It's awake. It's just very comfortable in its warm bed and procrastinating on getting up in the hopes something turns up to magically take care of all the chores it knows it should be getting on with.

Trump is an enemy of us all. Europe needs to unite - and the UK needs to rejoin the EU. If you want to see that happen… join European Movement UK right now. We’re driving this. ✊

Yes, which means all those famous scholars and journalists with their incessant calls for “peace” are actually calling for occupation, and genocidal occupation at that. They won’t acknowledge it, of course, since it would obliterate the very premise of their arguments.

Another way the dictatorship might kill you. This is from a friend who is a retired air traffic controller.

148 signatories call for the government to reconsider it's refugee citizenship ban, including Unison, the Conference of Liberal Rabbis, Islamic Relief UK, the Methodist Conference, the Baptist Union and several lord bishops www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

"Do you try to tackle the Right by imitating them, or do you stand up for what you believe in? Too many politicians right now are making the wrong choice on that.” #Holyrood #EU #Democracy #Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Angry about Brexit like all over again - like it happened yesterday - because of @bylinetimes.bsky.social

🔥 NEW: “Former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said that Prime Minister Keir Starmer is wrong to stick to Labour’s “red lines” of keeping the UK out of the European single market and the customs union.” I agree entirely.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Vance & Trump are both clearly enemies of Europe. Which is fine. That will only make us stronger and force Europe to become what the world needs it to be. ✊🇪🇺

Just let this sink in In 2016 Vote Leave marginally won The UK gov knew of Russian interference to deliver Brexit And despite that, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak, and now Starmer have chosen to do what Putin wants- weaken Europe- instead of protect our democracy from Putin Shameful

What can you do? THIS. Be there next Saturday - and show the world, America included, that Europe is united with Ukraine. 🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺

The Gulf of America. As Trump abandons Ukraine and Europe, this my theme in the editorial for the new print edition. For Brexit Briaint our 1940 moment, but turned to the Atlantic rather than the Channel "Very well, alone"

I don't think even I as an Indian immigrant could make this argument as good or as simply and still highly accurately as @zoejardiniere.bsky.social has done in this single tweet.

Centrist parties keep stepping on the same rakes over and over again. They let the right wing massively inflate a problem, then accept the premise it's an existential threat, then do milquetoast versions of right-wing solutions, then lose elections and Pikachu face.

This past year was the deadliest year on record for journalists. Israel accounted for nearly 70% of the deaths. At least 124 journalists in 18 countries were killed – with the Israeli military responsible for 85 of those deaths. Report from the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Keir Starmer's most consistent and welcome message is that people should be treated with dignity. How does stripping refugees of the right to citizenship square with that?

This is potentially quite scandalous. Tory-run Cornwall Council, which is trying rush through the sell-off of Newquay Airport, has tried to present the airport as consistently loss-making. But the latest accounts show the airport made a £4.3m profit last year... www.msn.com/en-gb/money/...

🔥 AMAZING. Today, the Baltic states disconnected their power grids from that of Russia. It’s taken years of prep. What a moment.

MTSA... Make Turnberry Scottish Again and rename it The Janey Godley Golf Course...she would like that. #Trump

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

The Twitter brigades have been out in force on Reddit lately. #webcomics

And there was Biden *insisting* he was Israel’s greatest friend ever. What an old fool. Bibi is a monster with no loyalty to anyone but his own power. Biden should have actually taken a moral stance and stopped Bibi’s war crimes and genocide… instead of being the awkward foreplay to this horror.

It's Migrant Voice's 15th anniversary later this month. It's all organisations that allows immigrants to speak, rather than always being spoken about. They're hosting a two day conference in London, where I'll be chairing the first event. Come along www.migrantvoice.org/whats-on/mig...

A reminder that the BBC can still do accurate, informative analysis when it wants to. www.bbc.com/news/article...

So much evil in one photo it is actually staggering

Ironically, it took me a couple of seconds.

#bbcpm The USA has stopped tracking agricultural disease outbreaks. We absolutely should not be opening our borders to their meat.

Keir Starmer scrapped Angela Rayner's plans to close the loophole allowing foreign billionaires like Elon Musk to bankroll UK political parties, following an intervention by a major Labour donor www.thetimes.com/article/3bb4...

The realization that we are being led by a glorified crew led by Uncle Junior.

Funny to watch Piers Morgan and Tucker Carlson arguing about whether Putin or Zelenskyy is the bigger "dictator" while they're both sitting in *checks notes* Saudi Arabia.
