Politics is about whose side you’re on. Kemi Badenoch has just shown she is on the side of JD Vance rather than our brave armed forces and the families who’ve lost loved ones in conflicts over the past 40 years.

Could anyone still claiming that Trump is not a fascist like to look at this and tell me what it is, if not fascism? Making protest illegal is just a step on the way to making voting illegal.

In 1994, Ukraine agreed to transfer these weapons to Russia and became a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, in exchange for assurances from Russia, the United States and United Kingdom to respect the Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders.

America Alone. Trump is remolding the United States in his own image — bigoted, erratic, reactionary, greedy, belligerent, vindictive, petty, friendless, authoritarian — and he won’t be content until the US is as lonely and isolated as he is. [kottke.org]

So we're now getting charged a 100% council rate premium on our flat in the UK because we don't live there permanently. But we CAN'T live there permanently because my German partner isn't allowed to. Due to Brexit. So we're being fined 2k a year for not doing what we're not allowed to. Thanks Brexit

Moscow's other 'sleepers' besides Krasnov are rapidly outing themselves. Mandelson must've been compromised by Deripaska. Farage has been pretty obvious for a while but his latest interview on LBC won't have done Reform any favours at all.

Putin is a murderous villain who has ordered nerve agents be deployed on British streets. He has his own agent in Westminster at the heart of our democracy. We should all be clear on what Farage really is.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country. They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

Is Trump behaving like Putin's lapdog for the money, or because of the kompromat? Or both?

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

I do feel bad for the lady who thought Trump would make IVF free and then got fired from her public sector job, but since political correctness is now dead, I'm also allowed to say I think she's dumb as bricks.

REMINDER: The previous government estimated that a UK US Free Trade Agreement could boost the UK economy by 0.16%. And Frontier Economics for @bestforbritain.bsky.social analysis estimates an improved UK EU deal could boost the UK economy by 2.2%, staying outside the CU and SM. That's the 'math'

The embrace and protection of Andrew Tate at the highest level of US government tells you everything you need to know about this rotten administration. They worship at the altar of abusing women and girls. Their version of morality supports sex trafficking under the guise of camming

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

Jeff Bezos sent an email to WaPo staffers today, saying the opinions section will now focus on “personal liberties and free markets” and won’t publish anything that opposes those ideas. I got an email today asking me to resubscribe to WaPo. 'Democracy Dies in Darkness' turned out to be a promise.
