Unless Trump wants to keep him and his grifter family this trip is poorly thought out. The last thing we should be doing is stroking Trump’s ego….or any other bit of him.

Dear Donald Dumptruck,
Even if you are sufficiently unhinged to attack Greenland, we still want to see the Epstein files.

And never forgive nor forget that Starmer's government is holding prisoners of conscience simply for opposing the Israeli death cult. We urgently need a public inquiry into Israeli interference in British politics.

The Tories want Britain to launch an ICE-style 'removals force'. What has happened in Minnesota is just one of the reasons why this is not a good idea.

Labour and Starmer telling the people "there is no money" is a lie. Here's some of that money we once taxed. Its being taken in salary, dividends and bonuses of the elite.

And what, I wonder, does Starmer have to say about this? Nothing, as usual?
Israel’s ban on 37 humanitarian organisations, including Doctors Without Borders, from entering Gaza is another war crime.

The Green Party condemns this decision and calls for immediate international action to protect humanitarian actors.

UN human rights experts are calling on Sir Keir Starmer's govt to stop treating the lives and rights of pro-Palestinian political prisoners with contempt. But Starmer and his sorry excuse for a Labour govt have reduced Britain to a vassal state of Israel.

Here's a measured, eloquent and quite compelling argument for Welsh independence within the EU from Plaid Cymru's former leader Adam Price (from 2020 as we left the EU). As everyone now knows, Brexit has been even worse for the Welsh economy than expected.
