"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..." Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked. 'Disrespect' does not reside in lack of a suit, Mr Vance. ~AA

America, just in case you thought Friday went well here’s how the London Times saw it …..

Well played by Starmer, fair play to him!

🤣🤣🤣

It’s hard to overstate how much America’s global standing has collapsed in just six weeks—but these two photos say it all. Humiliating.

Absolutely @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Russia's response to Trump's tantrum says it all really:

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

100%

Sometimes you need to consider the previously unthinkable...

Fantastic work from Macron!

100% agree with this!

Topical....

Absolutely appalling!

🤣

🤣

Well that's a bit of a oversight to say the least... 🙄

“When Labour negotiates our country loses” says Kemi Badenoch at #PMQs Imagine the shock when she finds out the last Tory Government negotiated the first deal in history which involved walling the country off from a trading block made up of its nearest neighbours youtu.be/Kqkvnk35Bls?...

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Yep... 🙄

Robinson: Why did Starmer insult Badenoch? Nandy: Because Badenoch- Robinson: LEAVE BADENOCH OUT OF THIS. Nandy: Wut? Good on Nandy for standing firm. ~AA #r4today

www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio... let's be honest, this is what we really want to know 🙂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As Badenoch, Farage and others seem to have forgotten - we already had a national inquiry in child sexual exploitation. It reported in Feb 2022. The Tory Govt responded in July 2022. When Badenoch was a minister. www.gov.uk/government/p...

Just in case anyone needs the facts to push back on the blatent lies currently being peddled by Musk, Farrage and Badenoch

Yep.... 🙄

If you’re thinking about voting Reform, remember that they made you poorer.

Ace playlist!

100% this. He's a dangerous grifter...

This is lovely. And clearly named after my mate Kev (Cuddy) 😗🤣

Five years ago today, the Conservatives were handed another five years in power and a majority of 80 seats. And this man, who now bleats about every one of their catastrophic failures, giftwrapped that term for them. Never let Farage forget, he was their king-maker. ~AA

Rest easy fella. Your voice is much missed...

This is bang on! Farage et all are taking people for mugs (and dangerously succeeding in some cases...)

Aye, 100% agree!

100% agree with this. Whilst I cautiously agree with the assisted dying bill in principle, the state of (or total lack of) palliative care provision across the UK, is a national disgrace. That it is left to the community and some exceptional charities to fill the gap, is an appalling enditment...

Aye, bang on...

Beautifully put!

Tim Stanley, in what now appears to be a weekly slot on one or other BBC flagship politics programme, reels off a huge amount of absolute, provable nonsense about immigration. And he does so completely unchallenged. Enough now. ~AA A MEGA-THREAD 🧵1/

💥 Cross-party MPs call for a 'National Commission for Electoral Reform' 📰 Report by the new All-Party Parliamentary Group for @appgfairelections.bsky.social out now! 📈 New group has over 100 members and is backed by senior Labour and Conservative figures 🧵 1/7

Good news for all the folks signing petitions calling for a general election. You get your wish, in... erm, about 4 and a half years time... 🙄🤣

Freya the wee snow wolf! 🐺❄️

The American people did not elect Trump and the GOP to focus on genitals and culture wars. They wanted cheaper rent, groceries and gas. Which Republicans will fail to deliver.

Agree on all points. Particularly about the governments coms... 🙄

www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio... Seriously good, and seriously disturbing... Highly recommended...
