Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

To be clear, I believe that the US should be thanking Zelenskyy and Ukraine for standing up and defending freedom. They’re the ones bearing this burden in lives and disruption. It’s only the small and insecure who think they should be thanking us.

No-one could imagine Trump speaking to Putin like that. Which is one of the reasons that just happened.

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia. Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist. Extraordinary.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Ooooops. Another big Trump, Kennedy and Musk screw-up... USDA accidentally fired officials working on bird flu and is now trying to rehire them.. An Agriculture Department spokesperson told NBC News that officials are "working to swiftly rectify the situation." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

A Trump shill on Newsnight claims there are more people in prison in UK jails for freedom of speech violations than in Putin’s Russia. These people are radicalised, insane, plain stupid or some combination of all three.

It won't capture the headlines but Labour has met its pledge for 2m extra hospital appointments. A close relation is having cataracts treated 5 days after diagnosis. Unsexy but important stuff.

John Major is on R4 now being very critical of the Trump administration, which he calls very different to any US presidency he has seen. Major says JD Vance's speech in Munich was "not statesmanship" and it is odd to lecture about free speech while "cuddling Mr Putin".

‘Sweet moderation, heart of this Nation’ I loved this album but it’s beginning to look like we have bigger asks than just ‘a living wage, cradle to grave’ of our Government now in the face of the Global pressure.

With everything going on and what seems to be a brewing concerted effort to influence our Country the #BBC needs to finance, hire and up its news and investigative game. Except influence has been happening at BBC too?

Exquisite victimhood. But nobody MADE her a hard right pin-up & culture warrior. She didn't HAVE to write in the Telegraph or speak at Tory Conferences & neocon US think tanks. Her being sidelined is just the flip-side of the huge partisan favour she has enjoyed for years. youtu.be/k05eH25rC3g?...

The UK can secure significant growth of 1.7% - 2.2% through a policy of deep alignment with the EU on goods and services, while staying within Starmer's red lines. This is the approach to push for: peak ambition within the constraints Labour has set. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Trump is a thug, a bully and a gangster. This is what statesmanship looks like: doing what's necessary to protect your country's interests, but keeping open the hand of friendship and hoping for a day when the US will return to its senses.

I mean it’s sort of amazing that the incoming US President has basically said he’s going to declare war on Denmark, annex Canada and rename bits of the globe to his liking and broadcast news is just rolling with it like he’s delivered a sombre and thoughtful policy announcement. Absolute insanity.
