Calling Zelensky a “Dictator” must be where the line is drawn. It is my sincere hope that the whole political spectrum in the United Kingdom will speak with one voice in opposition to Trump’s lies.

We are seeing the biggest protest movement in postwar Germany. Millions taking to streets since last year.

The man who killed three girls in Southport bought his weapon on Bezos’s platform & was inspired by videos on Musk’s. And Musk is a vile hypocrite. Having blamed UK Govt for months over the killings, X still refuses to take down the violent video the killer watched minutes before his attack.
