Trump has forgotten that the West has always stood for doing the right thing and its Allies have always stood alongside the US. Afghanistan , Iraq and Yemen - to name but 3. Europe always supported the US and the US were one of the first to support Ukraine but the nutter Trump has blown all trust

Another inquiry that took 12 months to come to the conclusion and recommend that vouchers and loyalty points should be allowed to bring down the cost of baby food. This could have been done in one hours meeting. Why do all our enquiries take years yet nothing is ever acted on What is wrong here

Sadly it looks like Starmer has no guts and won't impose reciprocal sanctions so leaning towards Trump in the vein hope of a few crumbs. Doesn't he realise Trump will dump him as soon as he doesn't agree with him. By that time the EU will have blocked us off and we will be in deep isolated water.

I don't think we need to spend much time persuading Starmer to re-join the EU as the way Trump is throwing his weight about he alone will force us back to the EU with his threats of lowering taxes for his billionaire mates, sanctioning the ICC, etc. The UK must stand firm with the EU

A teenager stabbed in Sheffield yesterday. When will this madness stop. One solution is punish parents if any teenager is caught with a knife. A real deterrent at all levels needed if we are to make our streets safe. The legal profession doesn't smell of roses here either for getting guilty off

Good for Trudeau. Trump’s obsession with punishing others is going to come back to bite him.

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow them to rewrite history. If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely youtu.be/MUrf7addcTA?...

70k signatures to rejoin the EU. Big petition, timely too - polling shows the public is in favour. Let’s get it to 100k and push Labour to debate rejoining. It’s the glaringly obvious solution our economic problems and the rise of the far right. Please repost. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Rachel Reeves seems to be lurching from one idea to another in her attempt to generate growth. All her announcements this morning will take years to mature. Re-joining the single market and customs union would bring much quicker results. Why won't she explain what is stopping her from joining?

It's so amusing that reporters feel it necessary to stand out in the rain or ankle deep in water or like today stand in the howling wind getting soaked simply to show the weather is bad. Completely unnecessary and silly

NHS in crisis so why don't we build Nightingale hospitals to clear the bed blockers and staff them with service people and retired NHS staff. We don't need ventilators etc. or doctors and trained nurses. The current situation is beyond belief and throwing money doesn't work We need action NOW

Not impressed by Rachel Reeves trip to China and securing £600m over five years when she could secure tens of billions simply by joining the single market and get even more trade from China. Don't understand all the reluctance - is Labour that afraid of Farage. Join the EU NOW

Is anyone else bemused by the speed in which schools are closed at the first sign of bad weather. I cannot remember a single time our schools closed due to snow. We sledged to school, made slides in the playground I can't remember anyone having any serious falls other than a scratch or grazed knee

I can't believe that opposition politicians are calling for a new public enquiry into child grooming. SEVEN years the last enquiry took and NOTHING happened - oh and that was under the Tories -Will another 7 years be any different - Chilcott, Leversen, PO, HIV blood even COVID nothing ever happens

It seems to me that Trump is so like Putin - land grabbing and threatening whoever he wants. The similarities are quite alarming. I hope he doesn't take us back to the dark ages. Wake up you Americans

Can anybody explain how Joe Root in New Zealand can be handed 3rd prize for Sportsman of the Year just 10 minutes after the poll had closed? Did they do 3 presentations and picked the relevant one?
