Starmer seems to have been played, taken in by Trump. The only thing that the grifter is genuinely committed to is making money (especially from property deals). "Peace" is really not his primary concern, except as a precondition for profit..

Yes to this, although it's sad that we have to claw our way back in such tiny increments. https://leftfootforward.org/2025/02/a-win-for-young-people-labours-potential-uk-eu-mobility-scheme-welcomed/ #YouthMobilityScheme #UKEURelations #UKPolitics #EU

Why UK and EU must continue to support Ukraine. Russia hasn't won yet.

Like his hero Trump, Farage has for long been a Russian asset. He owes much of his success, over the Brexit referendum result and later, to support from Russian bots and other digital interference in the referendum and later elections. He knows that he owed something in return.

It feels bizarre saying it, and of course it might all collapse, but right now, it looks as though the continent is lucky to have Macron and Starmer!

🧪 As a scientist, and definitely not a fan of conspiracy theories, we have no direct evidence. For the KGB and post-Soviet Russia, that is a feature, not a bug. Nevertheless, the circumstantial evidence over decades, to the present-day bizarre behavior of Trump (when ? about Putin) is overwhelming.

Had a fantastic time getting some gardening done with @johnmilnehorsham.bsky.social , got to meet with volunteers from Friends of Horsham Park and the Maze garden group at the Strawford Centre. 🌿 Their brilliant work is keeping the parks clean and showing true community spirit in Horsham.

Why is Farage in the US at that conference? He’s looking for money from tax-averse billionaires. We absolutely must ban, or at the very least cap, political donations.

It is kind of ironic that Trump wants Canada as his 51st state, but all of his efforts appear to be turning America into Russia’s 47th oblast.

The United States appears to be in violation of the Budapest Memorandum which disarmed Ukraine of nuclear weapons in exchange for security guarantees. The agreement signed by the US in 1994 specifically prohibits economic coercion against Ukraine.
