Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

US politicians slinging insults at each other over the Govt shutdown shambles: it's a Democrat shutdown, it's a Republican shutdown...
It's neither of course. It's the Epstein Shutdown.

The Gaza ceasefire, so proudly and unmodestly announced by Trump, has since been broken multiple times by both sides.
He's suddenly very quiet about it. Why is the press not asking questions?

Very strange messaging from our Govt around. Hadush Kebatu.
Ministers falling over themselves to stress that he will be deported this week...!
Was that always the plan (it was never mentioned at the time of his release) or is this just performative?
Playing to the Reform crowd again?

NEW: Labour condemn Tory plan to strip people of indefinite leave to remain:
“It’s utterly grotesque that Tories want to deport people with the lawful right to be here to achieve ‘cultural coherence’.
“This policy would mean tearing families apart and ripping out our neighbours from communities."

"The government have actively avoided looking for evidence Russia interfered."
The Intelligence & Security Committee's Stewart Hosie said the Toy government didn't investigate alleged Russian interference in the Brexit vote, and no one wanted to touch this "with a ten-foot pole".

Keir Starmer can't stop talking about Farage. It's like he's actively promoting him. I think he is; and it's deliberate.
He is hoping to split the right wing vote.
By decimating the Tories and boosting Reform, neither party can win a majority. It might work, but only if he retains his own vote share

Burnham at fringe #Lab25 event: "Look at the last decade we've had. Shouldn't we start calling out the disaster that #Brexit has been, more directly? They are the people who took us down this path. That's their doing. And we've got to absolutely hold them accountable for that." ~AA

Here is the Sun's pitifully small apology for its lie about benefits tourism - a lie that was accepted as truth by millions and helped deliver Brexit.
These lies are perverting our democracy. At a minimum, apologies should be published in the same location and size as the lie.
