How about instead of profiling the “personalities” saying horrible things at far right conferences, we profile the people who paid to put on those conferences. Cmon the billionaires pushing this poison have names & faces.

Not just America, every one who platformed and supported the likes of Farage and Tice, in the UK also need to take responsibility for the part they have played in getting us to where we are now.

Europe can’t rely on US for defence - says one of our supporters in today’s @yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk “Truth is our foreign policy & national security is subject to US voters’ whims & vagaries.” Even if we don’t #RejoinEU, Europe needs military leadership: “Anglo-French leadership.”

A front page that sums up the confused mess we’re now in, thanks to the rightwing politics championed by The Times. Hateful authoritarianism from Musk & Trump. Yet despite that threat, such self-harming reluctance still to rebuild our broken relationship with our neighbours, just a train ride away.

By golly, Labour couldn't bark up a more wrong Brexit tree if they tried. Strongly out of tune with 80% of their 2024 voters. Extraordinary mistake. That's substantially more than necessary to lose the 2029 GE. But hey ho, they'd rather stick their necks in the sand. yougov.co.uk/politics/art...

They really, really need to pin this on Farage. When you think of the 'big beasts' of Brexit bollocks, there's not really anyone else left in the game so it should be quite easy.

Economics aside, I despair of the boilerplate pieties that Reeves uses to explain the political purpose behind her growth plan. "Wealth created and wealth shared"; "we will have succeeded when working people are better off"; the goal is "next generation with more opportunities than the last".

It’s ridiculous to suggest that a man who filled his website with Holocaust deniers, agreed with an antisemitic conspiracy theory, & helped elect another man who hosted a Holocaust denier for dinner & just pardoned a guy in a Camp Auschwitz T-shirt was doing a Nazi salute.
