“Trump simultaneously says we should execute drug dealers while pardoning the largest drug market creator in human history. And so he is creating one of the hallmarks of authoritarian rule, which is a tier of justice that says: if you’re my friend, if you’re an ally, the rules don’t apply.”

If Viktor Orban really blocks European sanctions at a key moment for the war, it’ll be absolutely clear that in this big game for the security and future of Europe, he is playing in Putin’s team, not in ours. With all the consequences of this fact.

A truly dreadful piece of writing that neatly demonstrates why he had no respect at all from the rest of the senior civil service.

Hegseth's confirmation is awful news for global security, esp in a 50-50 tie. Cannot emphasise enough how unusual this is for Defense Secretary. Biden's Lloyd Austin got 93 votes to 2.

The Government has contacted potential administrators for Thames Water in case the company falls into bankruptcy.

It should have been the Labour Government priority to nationalise water companies right from the start.

I personally can’t wait for this. ❤️🇪🇺

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.

The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.

History is repeating. Pay attention.

Mo has been caring not only for his beautiful family through the last year+ of brutal genocide, but for a shelter full of cats!

He risked his life countless times to keep those in his care safe, and he still needs our help in this time of ceasefire.

Please help Mo, his family, & the sweet kitties.
