NEW: Macron has to interrupt Trump and correct a lie about Europe’s contribution. TRUMP: “Europe is loaning the money to Ukraine. They get their money back." MACRON: “No. We provided real money. To be clear.” Trump clearly not used to get fact-checked live.

On the 3rd anniversary of Russia’s brutal invasion, Europe is in Kyiv. We are in Kyiv today, because Ukraine is Europe. In this fight for survival, it is not only the destiny of Ukraine that is at stake. It’s Europe’s destiny.

Due to the layoffs I am afraid that we have had to take over the running of the US National Parks. We are updating the park regulations but for now the most important thing people can do before visiting a national park is to marinade themselves for 12 hours in olive oil, lime juice & garlic.

👋👋 Since there’s a lot of talk from Trump about how “Europe has not really carried its weight in terms of the money” for Ukraine, let’s just share some facts. Right from the beginning, Europe has provided more* aid to Ukraine than the United States* 1/2

Denying refugees citizenship simply on the grounds that they arrived here “illegally” on small boats when there are no legal routes for most to use takes cynicism to new heights. If Govt thinks such performative cruelty will see off Reform, they’re wrong - it’s more likely to strengthen it

What you are seeing this morning over the refugee decision is Labour alienating and offending its remaining liberal supporters without bringing any new voters onside.

Danish activists have a petition to buy California from the US for $1 trillion. 200,000 signatures so far. That big theme park there would be renamed Hans Christian Andersenland.

Witnessing Labour trying to mimic Reform with migrant raid videos is sickening & will simply reinforce Reform’s messages. Just months after race riots, it also risks encouraging further animosity. We need safe & legal routes for asylum seekers, not boasts about which party can be cruellest

And the 🧵 leading up to this. I do not understand why supposedly left-wing government with large majority is letting Farage dictate the agenda to such an extent and focusing on his supporters, rather than on rest of us who contributed to them being in power (but won’t be so ready to next time) 😬

Last Thursday I met with the great-great-great-granddaughter of the 18th century Hamburg merchant whose letter archive I found over 10 years ago - a very special moment for Jane Luetkens and me. Letters are not just old paper. They are full of life and family history #earlymodern #history 🗃️
