Can someone remind them it was only 11 minutes. Not exactly Jodie Foster in Contact, are they.

Trump has basically been a modern political figure since the 2011 birtherism stuff and a politician in the definitional sense since 2015...so if you assume 15 is the average age of becoming "aware" of politics, then that's basically everyone under 30 and DEFINITELY everyone under 25.

Right, Donald. Shit or get off the pot pal.

Aww snap. Talk about cut through for poor ol' Liz

This ought to be a badge of honour for Ukraine BBC News - Trump says Ukraine 'more difficult' to deal with than Russia www.bbc.com/news/article...

More v bad news for Ukraine at the hands of the Trump admin. FT reporting US has cut off intelligence sharing. US intelligence co-operation has been essential for Ukraine’s ability to identify and strike Russian military targets. Washington cutting Kyiv off at the knees. www.ft.com/content/c58f...

I guess this was inevitable, but is still a complete dick move by the Trump administration and will cost Ukrainian lives US cuts off intelligence sharing with Ukraine - on.ft.com/4kswAIs via @FT

Dear Europe: You are next on the hit list. Good arguments, preemptive concessions, appeals to friendship, and flattery will not protect you. Discard those fantasies and prepare to hit back hard.

Serbian parliament having a totally normal one I see. Not now lads, eh.

Every soundbite I've seen from the US administration mentions the minerals deal and the need for Ukraine to sign it. Everything they are doing now needs to be seen in that context. It is extortion. Plain and simple.

Only consolation is that in 4 years' time JD Vance will be swallowed by the same political oblivion that swallowed Mike Pence.

Emergency podcasts sir, thousands of 'em

Starmer doing to Trump with that state visit invite what I do to my toddler with some veg disguised as nuggets.

Well I didn't think he was doing laps.

Yer man, Farage. Awfully quiet this weather. Can't think why.

Would love to know what Keir Starmer's key outcomes are for the meeting with Trump, and why they can't be achieved via back channels or between officials. He's going to go over there, get lied to his face, then be insulted and demeaned in a joint press conference.

Trump’s statements over the past 24hrs diminish him, the great office he holds and the beautiful country he leads. This may yet come to be seen as one of the darkest and most craven periods in American history. Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the heroes. 🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

Would be like my cat declining an opportunity to lick its own arse.

Brexit, quite aside from being an economic disaster for the UK, is now being shown for the geopolitical clusterfuck it was always destined to be.

We should make this the basis for our next election campaign.

Those who peddled Brexit now cosy up to Trump, who himself peddles Putin's talking points on Ukraine almost verbatim.

AHH. Jesus Herschel Christ. Celtic should be 2-0 up!

Anti-cyclomic gloom is definitely a mood www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Maybe if American cars could go round corners or get you to the shops without the need for a refuelling tanker on escort then Europe would buy more of them.

The German election is even more important to the future of Europe than what happened in the USA in November, but it gets a fraction of the coverage here.

He doesn't respect them, but absolutely recognises the usefulness of such idiots.

Piss off Wordle! That's not a word.

Fuck off Google
