There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

In journalism it's important to reflect both sides,listen, understand nuance,be aware of your bias It’s also important to call out facts that aren’t true Trump suggested Ukraine started the war with Russia That is not true.Facts matter.If you want to end a war,you need to face up to how it started

It is but on the other hand I'm quite happy for these guys to associate themselves with Vance, Musk and Trump as much as possible. Roughly as popular as herpes to the average UK voter.

If Ukraine is forced to surrender its sovereign territory to Russia, it will be the greatest betrayal of a European ally since Poland in 1945. The UK must lead in Europe in defence of Ukraine. We cannot stand back and watch as Zelensky is bullied by Trump.

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
