The slow, slow road back to sanity…. we hope…. A functioning, cooperative relationship with our own continent, rather than an idiotic and dangerous ‘tilting’ towards a USA that absolutely cannot be trusted. (Letter in the Times)

Donald Trump has chosen to cast America’s former allies aside and support the state responsible for the murders of Litvinenko, Navalny and Dawn Sturgess in preference to the brave heroes of Ukraine. Arguably this man is a far greater threat to world peace and security than Putin, Xi and Kim Jong-un.

Good on the French for having the guts to do what we should be doing. We should start by imposing much higher levels of income tax on Premier League footballers who are being paid obscene salaries.

The man is an utter moron and so it doesn’t say much for the intelligence of over half of the American public for electing this incompetent narcissist. Get him back on The Apprentice as the only thing he is any good at is firing people.

Does anyone really believe that Britain has ever had a ‘special relationship’ on equal terms with the United States as the only nation to have always enjoyed one of these is clearly Israel? It seems to me that such a notion is political claptrap as we have simply been content to be America’s poodle.

As he terms himself, this is the real Donald Trump, role model for discredited and washed up Tories like Liz Truss and Jacob Rees-Mogg both of whom will never criticise him nor hear a bad word said about him. Thank God Britain finally saw the light and kicked these two useless morons out of office.

As being “free to make our own trade deals” has delivered the square root of jack shit and, as Brexiters still can’t tell us what EU regulations they want to scrap, closer alignment with the EU should be a no-brainer. Great work @bestforbritain.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Ok ok Trump is batshit deranged Musk is batshit deranged JD Vance is batshit deranged. They are only interested in being allies with other dictators. American is run by batshit lunatics who are prepared to be as hostile as it gets toward us in Europe. Time to prepare for EVERYTHING!

Ah, the beautiful irony of J D Vance talking about the erosion of European democracy! He has conveniently overlooked the fact that his boss tried every trick in the book to overturn American democracy after losing the 2020 presidential election.

How much longer have we got to wait before this despicable woman jumps ship and joins the equally despicable Reform UK?

How can the most powerful country in the world have allowed itself to be ruled by a geriatric spray-tanned fascist and former host of The Apprentice? Although ineligible, Americans would have fared much better with self-made Alan Sugar rather than a man who has presided over numerous bankruptcies.

Surprise, surprise! Trump ignores international law when he should have arrested Netanyahu and sent him to The Hague to face charges of war crimes. Two absolute monsters happy to support ethnic cleansing. One has to question the point of international law when powerful autocrats so readily flout it.

Realigning our relationship with Europe and reducing the damage of Brexit is a vote winner and the Lib Dems and Greens are leading the way.

Wow 💥💥💥 Just 10% of Labour voters say we were right to leave the EU. That means 90% of those who voted for this government do NOT support Brexit. Just imagine what these figures would be like if Labour hadn't spent the last 8+ years REFUSING to talk about any EU/Single Market benefits! #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

What a grovelling, humiliating and wholly unconvincing admission we heard from the Prince of Darkness yesterday. Mandelson must have wanted the job of UK Ambassador to the United States pretty badly to have debased himself in such a fashion.

With Nigel Farage and Reform UK again calling for the UK to leave the European Convention on Human Rights here is a reminder of why joining Russia and Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR is a very very very bad idea youtu.be/iSTN-h8NoyY?...

You scratch my back; I’ll scratch yours. Case was worst Cabinet Secretary I can ever recall. Completely failed in his duty to uphold the core principles of the UK civil service- integrity, honesty, objectivity and impartiality. Played a huge role in the growing rot of our political establishment.

Starmer is so frightened of Farage and Murdoch that he prefers to keep young people and the rest of us in the Brexit prison rather than standing up for what is right. Vote for #Breturn parties in the local elections. Politicians heed votes, not words. Vote for Freedom.

Good on you, Harry. It’s high time somebody stuck it up to the living fossil Murdoch.

Joe Biden had nearly four years in which to ensure that Trump went on trial for insurrection. This crime was of far greater significance than the Stormy Daniels affair. Such a failure ranks alongside the acquittal of O J Simpson as two of the greatest travesties of justice in American legal history.

British society has sadly now become far too much like the American model and not enough like the European one. The main difference between us and our transatlantic buddies is that we have depressingly unparalleled amounts of knife crime whereas they seem more than happy to specialise in gun crime.
