1804. Oceans are now Battlefields.

In the South China Sea a British convoy worth almost £1bn today is spotted by the French.

It should be a massacre.

Instead, Commodore Nathanial Dance is about to defeat a French battle squadron using some paint and the most overplayed hand in #navalHistory. /1 🧵

When Prince Harry was serving his country in Afghanistan, he was known as Harry Windsor.

When Prince Andrew was striped of his titles for disgracing himself he was given the name Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

Why the pompous addition of Mountbatten?

I never really sign stuff. But this was different. It's not about trying to facilitate or block a particular party's route to power. It's about an electoral system that's unsuited to the political realities we face today and risks giving us government after government with no convincing mandate.

Article in Guardian about ongoing evils of lobbying! Simply solved- make MPs adhere to the laws the rest us follow.
No bribes of any sort!
Penalty for minor infringement- stripped of being an MP. Major breach = prison.

Europe should restart negotiations with Russia over Ukraine. The United States shouldn’t be allowed to keep pressuring everyone and benefiting from all sides while contributing very little.

✅ Reeves is right.

🇪🇺 Alignment with the EU will boost growth in both the UK and the EU.

🔄 Proximity matters.

📈 The EU is a reliable partner. More than that they are our largest trade partners.

Rebuilding EU ties ‘the biggest prize’ for British economy, Reeves says
The U.K.’s chief finance minister backs alignment with the bloc only when it’s in Britain’s “national interest.”

If Epstein & Bannon where running this type of operation in Paris, what kind of operation where they running in London?

Now if we only had political journalists with the capabilities to investigate such a threat to our democracy!
As Le Point and Le Monde have both reported, Epstein was running a major project out of his luxurious apartment in Paris' 16th arrondissement to advance the interests of Marine Le Pen and her Pétainiste party, which appears to have been coordinated on several levels with the Kremlin. Here's Bannon.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

For 24 hours, my Bsky feed wasn't 90% US politics. I never thought I'd write this but "Thanks Mandelson".

Then Superbowl happened, and we're back to business as usual.

It took considerable courage for the jury in the Palestine Action trial to ignore the demands to convict from the judge, government, police and media and instead to weigh the actual evidence.

I’m not a Starmer fan (#KennySteamer) but if you’re going to pull his government and party to shreds investigating alleged wrongdoing then subject Farage and his vanity project to the same investigations.
The individuals that fill me with seething, hateful contempt are the editors and producers who give Farage a free pass and don’t go in for the kill because he is ‘good telly’/good for clicks.
yeah no shit - maybe because the BBC invite them onto Question Time 87 times a year and make special news programmes called things like ‘Nigel Farage: Is He a Dreamboat?’

If we want to start highlighting dodgy links and shady practices, lets start with Farage and Manafort. Our MSM stays silent as usual when Farage is involved.

Not only was Manafort Trump’s former campaign chair, jailed for financial crimes after investigations into his Kremlin-aligned influence operations – to lobby the president on Bitcoin policy, but he also acted for the Russian backed candidate in the Ukraine Presidentials prior to Zelensky

"Starmer didn't pick Mandelson in spite of his Epstein connections… He picked him because of them."

Would he have made the same choice if Kamala Harris had won?

"Absolutely not", says @lewisgoodall.com.
