OTD in 2024 we killed Navalny. A short history of what we anti imperialists believe.

1 In 2020 a Russian in Russia, under surveillance by Russian intelligence, left a hotel in Russia & got on a Russian plane going from Russia to Russia & consumed a Russian nerve agent only Russia by the CIA.

The emails are clear.

Epstein used Jagland as a middleman to connect Trump’s secrets to the Kremlin.

This is why Trump refuses to pressure Russia.

He is not a peacemaker, he is a compromised criminal.

Jagland sold out Europe to help Putin blackmail the American president

Politico published symbolic awards following the Munich Security Conference, naming EU foreign policy chief Kallas for Worst Poker Face. She was seen pressing her lips and puffing her cheeks as US UN ambassador Mike Waltz praised Washington for ending several wars. The reaction spread quickly online

THE BREAKFAST CLUB was released 41 years ago today. The story of five high school students in detention became a classic of the teen genre, as well as 1980s Hollywood in general. The tale behind any John Hughes film is pretty bizarre, some are just better at hiding it…

This is the Gov looking for your input on the BBC. It takes a while to complete (15/20 mins) but it’s pretty comprehensive and covers most aspects.

Please share. I’m surprised many people haven’t seen it yet.

The British Government needs to sort this out.

Otherwise foreign governments will sort this out. In a bad way.

And another bites the dust?

The BBC World Service will run out of funding in just seven weeks. Its funding arrangement with the Foreign Office finishes at the end of March. There is no plan for what happens next.

🧵In today’s Times @joshglancy.bsky.social has a brilliant write up of our focus groups he sat in on. Definitely read it in full! But I want to focus on two voters: Kylie & Eve I think have outsized importance in explaining today’s politics

When I lived in Japan, far-right parties used to drive around blaring out propaganda from loudspeaker vans. People saw them as public nuisances at best, dangerous nutters at worst. Interesting to see Matt Goodwin adopt the same strategy.
