Today is the UK-EU Summit. šŸ”„ šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§šŸ‡ŖšŸ‡ŗ Yesterday, I explained to Vanessa Feltz why this was so important to us (on both defence and youth mobility). Part 1 (first 3 mins):

I just signed the petition to to demand the Government tax the super rich to rebuild our NHS, schools, and other public services. Will you sign too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

In a more humane era the story about Biden would have been that despite having already suffered enormous personal losses he pushed himself through the pain of old age and cancer because he saw no other viable opponents to Trump. And he was pummeled by his supposed allies for his effort.

Boop! Insert ā€œBiden did thatā€ sticker. ļæ¼ šŸ‘‡šŸ½šŸ‘‡šŸ½šŸ‘‡šŸ½

Biden was more comptetent on his worse day than Trump is on his best.

There's an argument that because Starmer is going to get the full force of the bullshit 'betrayal' narrative for relatively tiny improvements, he may as well go much further. But I don't think the EU would be up for that at this - or any easily foreseeable - point.

If you listen to one thing today please make it the new @therestpolitics.bsky.social LEADING with Arab Barghouti, whose father Marwan is currently in an Israeli jail but who is seen by many - including moderate Israelis - as a key to peace. Vital voice. Wherever you get your podcasts

Israeli strikes in northern Gaza kill at least 50, hospital says

"Only 82 per cent of people now believe Ireland should remain in the EU - a two percentage point drop from last year's figure." So GB News paints this as "Irexit looms". 🤣 A two percent drop! From 84% to 82%! News for the desperate & data-illiterate.

More than 40 MPs have signed a letter urging Foreign Secretary David Lammy to address allegations that the UK has continued exporting military equipment to Israel despite the suspension of key arms export licences - raising concerns that Parliament may have been misled. www.itv.com/news/2025-05...

Labour MP says Starmer’s ā€˜island of strangers’ warning over immigration mimics scaremongering of far right – UK politics live Starmer has completely lost the plot. We dont need Farage nonsense from him as well as Farage.

The hypocrisy has been described as 'glorious' by one Labour MP

UK Lawyers for Israel condemned over claim war may reduce obesity in Gaza. Absolutely disgraceful

Disability benefit cuts impossible to support, 42 Labour MPs tell Starmer Only 42 of them? Should be more.

This is now intolerable, criminal and at the most crucial tipping point yet. Israel and the US are AWOL on all law & morality and must be stopped. No ifs or buts or hiding heads in the sand from it. We need to face it head on. Write to your MP. Full vid —> www.instagram.com/reel/DJWpt09...

While Russia targets apartment buildings in Kyiv with drones and ballistic missiles this morning, Russia’s only factory producing fiber-optic cables for military drones is in flames. Saransk, 630km east of Moscow.

🤬 ā€œThe U.S. is stepping up its intelligence-gathering efforts regarding Greenland… …drawing America’s spying apparatus into President Trump’s campaign to take over the island, according to two people familiar with the effort.ā€ This is effectively attacking an ally - and Europe.

Reform’s green energy assault in Lincolnshire ā€˜puts 12,200 jobs at risk’ These vandals are ruining rather than running their council. See Guardian for story

According to the Financial Times, the European Commission will propose rules requiring companies to disclose their Russian gas contracts. This is a crucial step to end our energy dependence on Putin — a war criminal. 1/2

The government was wrong to cut winter fuel payments. It was wrong to keep the 2-child benefit cap. It was wrong to slash disability benefits. Pushing people into poverty is the wrong thing to do. The right thing to do is redistribute wealth and power so that everyone can live in dignity.

This insanity needs to be stopped. Israel is barbaric and no friend of any nation. Israel must be stopped & Palestine must be defended.

ā€œA PALESTINIAN activist's home has reportedly been raided by Israeli soldiers for participating in Louis Theroux’s BBC documentary The Settlers.ā€ The petty vengeance is next level.

The #WinterFuel cut was a mistake. Even cabinet ministers admit it. Join me today and sign the petition demanding the Government reverse the cuts and protect pensioners šŸ‘‡ 38d.gs/ad26

We are implementing a 900% tariff on all movies that utilize humans inside any penguin film, in name or subject. People excel in destroying our vibe, and it ends now. Hands off the Glacierverse!

The best way to honour the generation of 1945 would be to rebuild the NHS and the welfare state they voted overwhelmingly to bring about

Immigration is not the problem it’s now widely believed to be. Brexit is much more of a problem than it’s reported to be. So how can govt achieve growth, fix public svcs and deal with the cost of living if fear of Reform means it won’t be honest with us about these 2 elephants in the room? It can’t.

The perverting effect of money.

No to Trump, yes to the Commonwealth & Europe! We need to stand together against the malign influence of an aggressive and morally corrupt US government. #australiašŸ‡¦šŸ‡ŗ #australia #australianelection #commonwealth #canada

UK rail fares are wild. Two week ago paid €37 for two adults and two kids to travel two hours from Longford to Dublin on a modern train. Today am paying Ā£58 solo to sit on a dilapidated ScotRail from Inverness to Edinburgh

May the Fourth be with you all! These are some of our favorite actors, very talented!

šŸ”„ This is important. Really important. And none of the mainstream media are reporting it. So please read and share — because we are the news community for ourselves and the ā€œmainstreamā€ media are utterly hopeless for meaningful news.

Israel to expand military operations in Gaza to establish ā€˜sustained presence’ Doesn’t that mean annexation of the territory?šŸ‘ŽšŸ˜Ÿ
