This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

🚑 Time to recognise paramedics as an official emergency service. Paramedics face immense stress yet lack official emergency service recognition. It’s time for fair rights, benefits and retirement protections.

I heard some Herbert from the Spectator praising Trump for restoring ‘freedom of speech’ the other day. In fact, I’ve heard several British right-wing blowhards say the same. Are they utterly, utterly stupid or morally bankrupt or both?

Five years after Brexit rupture: 🔥 Britain faces rising costs, trade barriers, weakened international standing and businesses struggling bc of paperwork and lost access to EU markets. 🔥 Economic growth has slowed, many industries have seen job losses and relocations to Europe.

Drax power station is by far the largest emitter of CO2 in the country, emitting more than the next 4 largest power stations combined, & a source of huge environmental destruction. It’s beyond comprehension - and reason - if Government really is considering renewing yet more taxpayer subsidies

Hope it’s a negotiating tactic. Fear it’s just bloody stupid.

The latest polling shows this would be hugely popular, so ideal for a stuttering Labour government, especially given the loony in the white house waiting in the wings with chlorination chicken. Time to end governing in #FearOfFarage and to #RejoinEU www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Can’t believe the updates from The US… Two emotionally detached narcissists engineering what appears to be a mass looting of the country Triggering culture, tariff and diplomatic wars …while rolling out orders that will hurt the pockets, safety & health of its citizens.
