Do your fkn job. Stop using what each side said as some sort of proxy for doing your fkn job. Look out the window and tell people whether it's raining or not. That's your fkn job.

I appreciate a lot of us will think "they've always been like this" but the utter moral decay on the right in the last few years has been notable.

A shift from love the sinner, hate the sin fig leaf to "yeah, kill she/her, haha, pronouns in bio."
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

This is where all your transphobia leads, using pronouns in bio to justify a murder. Every single centrist, terf, guardian columnist, both-sides-er who gladly jumped in bed with the far right on this took us to this point. I’m so fucking angry

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".

It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".

The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

The BBC must have seen different videos to us since it’s very obvious from the videos circulating on social media that the murdered woman did not run anyone over.

They will kill you dead in broad daylight and the most powerful man in the world will lie to cover for them. I’m so angry

Incredibly Boris Johnson probably fits this bill a lot better too since he is an extremely influential former PM and also an American.

I’m not sure this is true, even in the current political climate Britain remains remarkably efficient at banning things, both for better and for worse.

This was compounded by initial statements from the government implicitly denying British involvement, instead saying that “actions by third parties” had taken place from British bases until the Defence Secretary issued a statement a few hours later.

I’m quite hawkish on Russia so I actually think seizing Russian oil is probably a net good but the problem is that they are doing it for the wrong reasons as it’s linked to Venezuela instead of the war in Ukraine, and I’m not sure British military forces should be anywhere near the Venezuela issue.

In the event of invasion, Greenland MUST be defended. The fact we probably wouldn’t win that fight is not an excuse to not try.

PM spox refusing to hold the line on a statement the PM issued literally an hour earlier concerning Greenland it would appear.
Keir Starmer’s spokesman asked to respond to Donald Trump’s aide Stephen Miller saying the US plans to seize Greenland, replies that they “won’t give a running commentary on every remark on foreign policy” and “the Prime Minister is a world leader, not a commentator”

Joint statement on Greenland.

I don’t think it’s anything like the vibecession at all. The vibecession happened against a background of strong economic growth. Shown left is US economic growth by quarter for ‘23 which was peak vibecession. Compared to the four most recent quarters of UK economic growth (right) it’s night and day

I’m so fr when I say that we should respond militarily to a US attempt to take Greenland. I know that makes me a hawk, I know we probably wouldn’t win, but I think it is actually extremely important to defend the sovereignty of our close allies.
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

The fake military man story absolutely amazes me because if he had pretended to be a naval officer of a normal rank he might not have got found out but he had to go big or go home by opting to impersonate a rank so high that if you genuinely attain it you might have a Wikipedia page.

This bothers me a lot becuase I would hope that the person who runs the country would wear his opinions on his sleeve, even if only because it's probably quite important in a democracy for the public to be able to get a good grasp on the opinions of the person who runs the country.

Lots of Venezuelans would be happy to see Maduro go but the US stomped on all that goodwill by announcing they are going to run the country becuase if you had to choose between a dictatorship grown at home and a dictatorship imposed onto you by a foreign hostile power, it's not really a choice is it

If your version of freedom of speech includes the freedom to create child abuse images you should be in prison
Cabinet Office Minister Baroness Anderson tells the Lords the Government will keep on using X.

"I still believe that X is an appropriate platform to use because I believe in freedom of speech..."

"It is incredibly important that there is a counter narrative on those platforms," she says.
