Why is Israel killing innocent people and Israeli hostages with explosives and starvation? “More than 116,000 tonnes of food assistance … is positioned at aid corridors and is ready to be delivered as soon as Israel reopens Gaza's border crossings, according to the agency.”

The USA writing to medical journals to bully scientists and researchers into printing pseudoscience and misinformation that supports their political agenda. Letters to journals use an expression “new norms”. Two words that represent a dark new regime. The USA is lost.

Meanwhile, DOJ lawyers are threatening medical journals for not providing adequate "viewpoint diversity" and for misinforming their readership, which I suppose means not publishing enough of the stupid shit that RFK Jr., JB, etc. keep saying. This is an outrageous First Amendment violation.

Would I be deported from the USA for saying that children should not be killed? Or for saying hospitals should not be bombed? Or for saying starvation is a war crime? Or for agreeing with the UN? Or for saying the UN was created to prevent a repeat of the horrors of WW2?

Do not visit the USA, now a fascist state. Black shirted thugs are snatching students off the street and putting t by hem into detention centres for criticising US policy. People in the land of the free are not free. Migrants are not welcome in the country of migrants. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Goods news. “Renewables provided record 32% of global electricity in 2024” We can go further, with the hope there will a point that triggers a renewable dividend, as energy prices drop to reflect the true cost of local generation. Currently they track oil globally. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

The US trade deficit mainly occurs because the US has higher wages than other countries. American people can buy things from people who are paid less. Trump is going to fix that problem, but not in the way he thinks.

In Trumpspeak, the EU is facing a US tariff of 20% because it is one of the "worst offenders”. He is referring to a trade deficit. The trade deficit is mainly caused by the EU manufacturing desirable or cheaper goods which American’s want, and the EU not wanting expensive crap. Who is the offender?

The word “children” is missing from a BBC headline about Gaza but is used in a headline about Ukraine.

The BBC headline suggests the US stock markets are crashing because of tariffs on the UK. Very US and UK centric. Sky headline correctly reports worldwide stock crash due to worldwide tariffs.

People in the UK have memory of war and live with joy we are free but sadness of the past and a concern for the future. Who knew our next war would be with the USA?

Trump is complaining about VAT for American companies exporting to Europe. But trying to export from Europe into America is a nightmare. Every state has its own tax rates and rules and definitions. States administer their own sales tax regimes and so an importer has to register with each state.
