In some weekends, there are a month’s worth of headlines. The Trump regime wants us to believe it is flexing its might and in control of the narrative. But in reality, there are clear signs it is losing its grip. My write-up in today’s piece, link in the replies.

Nadhim Zahawi defects to Reform. I'm sure the party membership love all these foreign born muslims in their ranks.

Almost half a century of the Iranian regime and people are still being killed. Makes me realize that it's going to be 50 years before the US is reclaimed. If civilization even still exists by then

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

Greenland should just wait for the "special envoy" to arrive at the airport and then deny him entry and send on the next plane home.

I feel bad saying this but Jesse J on #RoyalVarietyPerformance just reminded me of Andrea Jenkyns blasting out "I'm an Insomnic" at the Reform conference and after that I couldn't unhear it

Seems another couple bravely gave their lives trying to stop the Bondi attackers. In an increasingly dark world, Mr Rogers' quote "Look for the helpers" does give at least some light www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Trump, Putin, Xi & Musk all want the EU to be destroyed, because a divided Europe will be an easy prey to be picked apart and subjugated by the world's authoritarian states. It will become a contested region in which the authoritarian empires will seek to extend their areas of influence and control.

if you care more about "neutrality" and including ONE country that has been a menace to the contest in the past two years than the participation of 4+ countries who have been in the contest since the beginning with minimal issue, it was never about neutrality. fuck the ebu.

Eurovision truly was one of the things I loved most, a proper joyful celebration of everyone coming together and sharing a love of music and culture.
Today I think it’s died a death with the EBU’s decision and it’s saddened me so much that they could have avoided this my listening to the public.

#Eurovision was perhaps the last silly innocent pleasure and sense of feel good we had left. And now even that has been stolen from us.

This was a botched Budget by a Chancellor who’s diagnosed the disease but won’t administer the cure.
Despite promises to cut the cost of living and grow the economy, the Government still refuses to fix our trade relationship with Europe and repair the £90bn Brexit black hole.

Why is Reeves just joking about Farage's russia connection rather than the government treating it as the very real and present danger it is and launch an inquiry? And as a bonus they would crush Reform who they are obviously terrified of.

Brexit the Elephant decided to stand on the despatch box to see if Rachel Reeves would notice him as she read out her budget.
“I reckon she knows I’m here”.
“But they’re still pretending I’m not, though”, he lamented.

People who are sensible to have a few savings are once again under massive attack with Reeves' #budget. She's clearly hoping to try and push people to spend to try create some growth. It wont work and will set us up for a massive welfare demand in the future.

Farage says he's 'never directly racially abused anybody' after school racism claims.
What strange phrasing. Does he think racism and abuse is ok as long as it's indirect?
