Europe's leaders to hold Ukraine talks at 'turning point in history' - Indeed it’s time for Europe to become an economic and military counterweight to China, Russia and Trump’s America. Europe should not need to rely on the US to defend a European country under attack. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Badenoch couldn’t resist using her last question to attack Starmer over farmers again, Starmer fires back, outlining the bleak economic picture Labour inherited & cites interest rate cuts as proof of Labour bringing stability to the economy Badenoch is truly terrible. #PMQs

Starmer gave Badenoch the easiest of tap-ins with his tribute to British military servicemen killed in the line of duty, all she needed to do was praise our Armed Forces. It really is that simple. But she stuck to her rictus, patronising script. Hopeless. #PMQs

Trump’s goal all along was to end military aid to Ukraine. That’s why he offered a “peace deal” with no security guarantees and set up that fight with President Zelenskyy knowing no sane leader would accept it.

Oh, and let's not overlook #Russia 's struggling economy with a $2T GDP, compared to #Europe 's coalition at $30T. Americans don't care about a rare earths deal that would only benefit their billionaires anyway. Any such agreements should only involve #Ukraine and its allies—not #Trump 's oligarchs.

Tories must feel so glad to have the JD Vance-whisperer as their leader. So, when the rest of us hear him insulting us, Badenoch tells us he didn’t say what he said at all. And goes on to sneer at us for minding being insulted. Chef’s kiss of obnoxiousness from that clueless clown.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau: "We're probably going to keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans, we're not booing you, we're not booing your teams, we're not booing your players. We're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. We're insulted. And we're angry."

Kemi Badenoch is quite possibly the dumbest, most inept Leader of the Opposition we’ve ever seen, and the second dumbest, most inept leader of a U.K. political party, beaten only by Liz Truss

I wonder if this will be Badenoch’s Salisbury moment? Like Corbyn’s desire to give Putin the benefit of the doubt, this is a statement of obvious, politically motivated myopia at a time of political crisis. Voters saw what Corbyn was doing and never forgave or forgot. Same could happen to Kemi.

NEW: This is brilliant from Trudeau. "Today, the US launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner & ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying, murderous dictator. Make that makes sense." 💥

Trudeau: He has said repeatedly, what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us. First of all, that's never going to happen. We will never be the 51st state.

So Kemi Badenoch, who last week delivered a speech accusing young people of being unpatriotic, and unwilling to fight for their country, has today defended a foreign leader who labelled Britain a "random country" that hasn't fought a war in decades

And while I'm on it, considering the magnitude of events, the tightrope gov't is trying to walk, and their earnest declarations of patriotism, it is at best naive for farmers to go ahead with some tin-eared “no pancakes without us” protest - let alone the Leader of the Opposition attending. AT BEST.

As I've been grumbling about certain BBC presenters, it's important to say that correspondents like Jeremy Bowen, Lyse Doucet and Steve Rosenberg continue to not just deliver the finest reporting and analysis but push back against daft questions. It's such a relief to hear them instead of [redacted]
