Sir Jim Ratcliffe spent part of the £4bn tax bill he dodged to fund Manchester United. That is how the UK works, you pay tax, the big people don't, and they get richer and richer, and RICHER.

Musk now meddling in Spanish politics! Elon Musk has unsurprisingly said Spain's far-right Vox party will win the next election, with Donald Trump adding that the Spanish far-right leader is "doing a great job". www.thelocal.es/20250224/mus...

A quick look at the German electoral map shows you that East Germans are far more susceptible to Russian propaganda than West Germans. It was exactly the same during Covid, where East Germany had more infections, a higher death toll and fewer vaccinations than elsewhere. #Bundestagswahl2025

"Well done, Bannon. Well done, Breitbart. You helped with this, hugely." Farage thanked pro-Russian racist Steve Bannon and Breitbart and therefore sociopathic American billionaire Robert Mercer for their help with the referendum. Brexit was not patriotic. It was riddled with foreign interference.

Our German supporters made us realize we made a mistake, and we want to acknowledge it. Germany, you’re in our thoughts. While we’re relieved that AfD was defeated, we understand this is not a moment for celebration. There is still much work ahead, and we stand in solidarity with you.

Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them. Dems: Don’t lift a finger to help them. Not one.

The green economy grew by 10% in 2024 and generated £83bn. It’s time to stop backpedalling on the green stuff and hit the accelerator. The faster we decarbonise the faster we cut energy costs, create jobs and strengthen our economy. buff.ly/3XdEACW

FYI, the UK voted in favour of a UN resolution condemning Russia's "full-scale invasion of Ukraine" and with very strong language about preserving Ukraine's territorial integrity and independence. Though non-binding, it lays down a marker vs the USA - which shamefully abstained on the resolution.

Rule of thumb, if the Ukrainians say an interaction happened when referencing their conversations with the US, then it happened. Even if Trump and Musk deny it.
