I’ve said it once before, but it bears repeating now…

It couldn't be clearer that the US will not help to defend Europe. We must stand together.

"Did Salford really invent the two-day weekend, and what was the reason for the second rest day in the week?"

To be fair - we should probably put NATO into administration and drive Europe to fill the defence space... ...a *complete* reversal of the previous dynamic, I am fully aware, but actually a huge opportunity for Europe (manufacturing, R&D, hard power, cybersecurity, procurement cohesion, etc, etc).

"Hundreds, if not thousands of people" have gathered in London to voice their support for Ukraine. #3E #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity #UKprotests #StandWithUkraine

The notion that Ukraine should have held elections when a large chunk of its population were under enemy control and it has troops at the front line… …is so farcical that I’m surprised Russia had the balls to push it. That Trump didn’t comprehend the simple dynamics of it… less so. 💁🏻‍♂️

Starlink should be banned from European markets on national security grounds. Anything requiring Starlink should be shut out of the European market, and sanctions should be considered against all relevant actors. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

This is real. And I have never seen the competence, morals, standards and communication strategy of any government collapse so fast.

Let’s go!!! 🇺🇦 Pro-Ukraine protest outside the Russian embassy. ✊

“A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.”

And make sure you're following Annette too! 👇👇

The Daily Star this morning is brutal.

I was right. Trump is getting played by everyone. Russia played him, then Zelenskyy baited him… … and now he’s increasingly isolated.

Good crowd for Ukraine solidarity march in London.

🇺🇦 "If you are so generous to Russia, why not give her a piece of your country? Why should any sovereign country satisfy Russia? Let me ask, on what basis does Russia deserve anything — especially someone else's territory?" - 🇵🇱 President Duda

"In Norway, Tesla saw a 38% sales slump, in France sales dropped by 63%, and in Spain by 75%. Tesla sales dropped 13% across the whole European Union last year and are expected to fall further... Tesla registered only 1,277 new cars in Germany in January, a year-on-year drop of 59.5%."

London stands with Ukraine

Pro-Ukraine demo in London today outside the Russian embassy. 👇 Demos outside the American embassy are something to consider, too, seeing as trump and putin are hand in hand.

London stands with Ukraine. Fuck Putin.

"In the middle of the 18th century, Europe went through what is known today as the Diplomatic Revolution. The Hapsburg Empire, centred around Austria, and which had been allied with Britain against its long-term rival France, swapped sides..."

About time!

Brexit's impact on UK tourism is stark: fewer visitors, higher costs, and new barriers like ETAs. We're losing ground to Europe.

Sir Nick Harvey, former UK Armed Forces Minister& current CEO of @europeanmovement.co.uk, offers his view on the latest developments around the war in Ukraine. ‘PM Keir Starmer right to propose sending British troops to join a peace-keeping force in Ukraine if & when any peace deal is concluded’

European movement chair, Mike Galsworthy said: “This is welcome news. We need to start pulling this country out of the no-growth quagmire of Brexit and start giving people hope for a better, brighter future.”

Finally!! Great news - congratulations to all who campaigned for this 👏👏Now we need to make it as inclusive as possible eg covering colleges & apprenticeships @europeanmovement.co.uk

Leeds for Europe stands with Ukraine. If you are anywhere near that London tomorrow get along and give your support. @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social chair of @europeanmovement.co.uk is one of the speakers…

I don't think anyone could possibly have had Jacob Rees-Mogg's daughter doing a live tarot reading for a mortified Michael Gove on GBeebies on their 2025 bingo card. We are living through some strange fever dream. ~AA

The news on the Youth Mobility Scheme is fantastic to see. It now feels like we could get some real momentum underway in the lead-up to the May summit.
