Trump cannot be given a state visit to the UK. It should never have been offered. The invitation must now be withdrawn. You might as well hand it to Putin.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Not even hiding it!

@iaindale.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk This is the same Johnson who scoffed at the thought of tank battles on European soil? Why didn’t he increase defence spending? Too busy partying?

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

@lbc.co.uk It’s what the Welsh do, 20 mph speed limits! WTF? First 20 mph limits I saw were in London, England. They’re in my local town in England. Why are people like Dave not challenged for such nonsense?

@itvnews.bsky.social As your sports team have no official account id like to report a crime. Charlton keeper escapes a sending off as two officials, sponsored by the RNIB, miss this!

If only experts existed who could warn Americans repeatedly that foreign aid is money spent to pay Americans and buy things from Americans but no one's ever said it out loud so who can blame people for not understanding

@lbc.co.uk 3 leavers in the studio demonstrating there needed to be 17.4 million versions of Brexit. And trusting tRump? How’s his record on the Paris climate agreement, Iran nuclear deal? Mike in Rugby

Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

I wanted to take the weekend off, but America has decided to destroy itself, so here's my latest. Please read and share. "The Coup is Complete. All Hail The Broligarchy Presidency." With 300 million dollars, Elon Musk was able to buy the Presidency. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

@iaindale.bsky.social What happens if you fire people in charge of aviation security? @lbc.co.uk

@iaindale.bsky.social That’s not what she’s saying though, is it Iain? She’s not saying they go unpunished. She’s saying that after they’ve done their time their criminal record should be wiped clean. Stop saying there will be no consequences.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Oh! crypto.news/official-tru...

What we are witnessing is the normalisation of extremism. If we allow the right to pretend that the German AFD is just another conservative party... or that Donald Trump is just another president... or that Elon Musk was just getting carried away with that salute are on a distinctly dangerous path.

Somehow it gets lost in a lot of the coverage, but Nigel Farage was not invited to Trump's inauguration. Neither were Laurence Fox or Priti Patel or Liz Truss or any of the other folk who managed to get media coverage of themselves flying over to the states. You're being fed pure bullshit.

@birminghamcityfc.bsky.social Is it just me that finds the audio commentary difficult to find via the app? At work, so can’t go. Have an annual subscription but I’m f**ked if I can find the “listen” button! #KRO

Who said cats don’t like 1) a bath 2) having their bellies rubbed?

This, from Lewis Goodall, is bang on the mark.

Presumably the Brexity folks very concerned about sovereignty have been condemning Trump's threats to the sovereignty of countries which very much did not choose to join the USA?

Bit worried that Badenoch is fucking up too fast and they'll swap her. Please slow down Kemi. Your political opponents want you to last the course.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Also in reference to Friday’s show, Starmer needs an @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social to actively promote the positive things as they achieve them. The right leaning press won’t do it, unless they have no choice.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Listening to Friday’s show on catch up re:Starmer Made me think of snooker. Everyone loved to watch Alex Higgins & Jimmy White ahead of Steve Davis & Stephen Hendry. But the latter two had more World titles, so were arguably better. Politics needs a Ronnie O’Sullivan!

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

@lbc.co.uk @iaindale.bsky.social Come on Iain. Your memory’s not that bad. Johnson put his daughter in the House of Lords!🤪

I get the political calculation here. I'm just gonna point out that the predominance of research into European parties' efforts to outflank the far right like this has found that they merely legitimised the far right's political framing and led voters to opt for the "full fat" version.

The Mrs just sent me this. The love of my life. And the wife!🤪

Something new for day 48 of my futile one-woman crusade to keep real images popping up on your feed rather than AI (in The Bad Place) Late autumn in Clent. A little bit of atmosphere and the beech trees absolutely putting on a show! Woodland is tricky but the only way to improve is to keep at it.

I thought the game today was on Sky Sports + How come it’s the only one not listed?🤬 #KRO #BCFC #BCFCAwaydays

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Can’t believe you didn’t know it was a thing! Please ask the question again next Mystery Hour as that’s an answer I’d love to know!

@lbc.co.uk What evidence does James have that we haven’t trained Ukrainians to use the missiles? We’ve had 1001 days!! But he doesn’t believe the Russians have North Koreans involved?

Remember all those endless stories about the 'scandal' of Labour making political appointments to temporary civil service posts after the election? Well a new independent Civil Service Commission report finds that such appointments were "considerably" higher under the last Conservative government.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I’m listening on catch up at work. Had to look at the first opportunity to see if Charlie had gone viral yet. Imagine him strutting away from the call with his chest puffed out, only to walk into his local and everyone offering hint the Gareth Hunt coffee gesture!😂

Ok Blue Sky. Keep getting loads of emails from fake senders. Can’t blocked them as the string of numbers is always different. How do I set up a rule in Outlook to deal with this shit?

I rarely recommend blocking, but ⬇️ @trobinsonnewera.bsky.social

Im going to try to keep my input on here as silly as it can be! youtu.be/U_Klz5qncZQ?...

@sybaker.bsky.social Welcome!

Heres tonight's appearance with Joy Reid and my friend @oliviatroye.bsky.social youtu.be/aChu1SnZSZ4?...

Oh! @mrjamesob.bsky.social

@simonmarksfsn.bsky.social Thanks for the follow Simon. Love your ‘American Week’ on LBC Question for you. With control of the House, Senate, Supreme Court & White House what can be done to curtail the actions of a deranged lunatic. Hypothetically speaking, of course!
