They really should remove the World Cup from the USA and let Canada and Mexico do it all. Spread the message if you agree.

Silence Is Complicity Straighten your spine Speak & live your truth

You know what to do!

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

Doctors Without Borders (MSF), a leading campaigner against drug price secrecy, has signed NDAs with Big Pharma, including Bayer. MSF says it “systematically resists” demands for NDAs but doesn't always win. Full story for @politico.eu below.

This is what I’ve been saying - the man that helps the rich dodge mad amounts of tax, berates ‘normal’ people for fare dodging on the Tube.  No self awareness or just thinks we forgot already.  Or maybe it’s no big deal to him, like fare dodging - this is how the rich do it.

Black eye, struggling to focus ... he's not right

I had the EXACT same thought when I read this 😂

The absolute reason the #UKgov is failing is its stubborn refusal to transform the UK economy. It might manifest in other reasons for dissatisfaction but all roads lead back to the neoliberal disastrous theory it’s following. It will be worse with #freeports. Here @wpguy.uk Jason Boyd nails it. ⬇️

An anniversary worth marking. I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

And for you lazybones who can't quite face clicking through to Substack...

Sir Kier Starmer needs to tactically manage home issues more carefully, then strategically steer Labour gently towards the left. Without this, his tenure is meaningless. Just keeping a seat warm for someone far more dangerous

Come on America, you’re all better people than your govt.

Exactly this 👇

Adrian Ramsey, "We need a more constructive form of politics" "It's clear the two party system has broken down" "People do feel genuinely let down by two old parties that have not delivered for so long"

We don’t deserve governance from think tanks, lobbyists and opportunists. Our system is both weighted and by extension flawed. What do we do?

@louiisthreoux.bsky.social Great work in Israel. Keep carrying on carrying on.

For the misinformed, ignorant. and unaware. Louis Theroux’s The Settlers is both stark and alarming.

Everyone seems to have forgotten I attacked Ukraine every single day Trump was POTUS the 1st time. Every. Single. Day.

You couldn’t write it….oh, they did

The Ministry of Health in Gaza condemns the Israeli military’s targeting of the al-Ahli Hospital, the last functioning hospital in the north of the Gaza Strip. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/6n8qxe

Tricky stuff. Must keep you awake at night?

Check the names not mentioned. Quietly.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Nearly fell off my chair. What if there is a Korean called Li Our?

Congratulations America, you are now liberated.

Be careful JD lad. We’re pretty hard over here in Europe. You’re essentially genetically connected to weaker Europeans who fancied some gold.

I, for one would always side with Canada over the US. They’re just more educated and nicer

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Don’t let fuckwits like this turn this platform into the previous one.
