Tony Blair was often wrong, but he understood it was in Britain's interest to be both pro-American + pro-European. Don't put all eggs in one basket. We've broken up with Europe, only to find the US has joined our enemies. Brexit was folly. Time to rebuild Britain's European path.

If the left wants to combat the far right, it needs to stop starting culture wars. No more wokescolding, word-policing, cancel culture, pulling down statues, decolonisation, gender extremism, CRT and all the rest of the divisive rubbish that generates the backlash.

Former West Germany voted for the moderate centre-right while East Germany voted for the fascists. As in former Yug, Communism, by both obstructing development of a democratic, pluralistic culture and impoverishing people, prepared the ground for the rise of chauvinist extremism.

This woke language policing has gone too far. Now they're calling the Gulf of Mexico 'Gulf of America'.

This nonsense here is a large part of why Trumpism is surging across the West. John Altman refers on air to the racist character he played, Nick Cotton, calling someone a 'paki', and the BBC apologises for his language. The BBC is absolutely pathetic. www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/bbc-...

You can't run with the hare and hunt with the hounds, Boris; stop packaging Trump's evil and stupidity as wisdom in disguise. Johnson refutes the claim that NATO expansion triggered the war, but then pretends Trump is covertly a good guy with a masterplan. web.archive.org/web/20250221...

They were unable to capture Kyiv, or even Kharkiv, which is 35 km from the border. Instead, Washington fell.

The UK and other Western states should NOT put peacekeepers in Ukraine in a manner that allows Russia to use them as human shields or hostages, like UNPROFOR in Bosnia. We should put planes and missiles in Ukraine that could strike Russian forces if they continue advancing.

If Americans get their information about international affairs from conspiracy theorists on YouTube instead of from the 'MSM', they end up thinking Canada is their enemy and Russia is their friend 🤡

For those of us who remember Western policy during the 1990s war in Bosnia, the Trump Administration's support for Russia's genocidal aggression in Ukraine seems terribly familiar. Albeit Trump is more brazen about it than Clinton, Major, Mitterand etc. ever were.

To give the devil his due: Putin's Russia is mediocre on the battlefield, but it's much more adept than the old Soviet Union at subverting Western liberal democracy.

I still had doubts until Lavrov said "Trump is a completely independent politician:" Since when we need reassurances (from Russian FM) that the President of United States is "independent"? Imagine Khrushchev saying something similar of JFK.
