They Wagatha Christied the US intelligence service.
This opens up wider questions about how far the UK and Canada in the 5 eyes intel sharing framework as well as other former allies of the United States can still provide the Americans with any sensitive intelligence information at all

These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all.
They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America.
They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

If you keep trying to be friends with the angry lion then you shouldn't be surprised when the lion attacks anyway.
We need a long term security pivot away from the United States, starting now.
We need to stop pretending that the post WW2 order still exists. It doesn't. Trump trashed it.

The answer to the question 'why are Republicans complicit with this?
A lot of them want this.
They hate Democrats, immigrants, the LGBTQIA+ community more than they love their country and its Constitution.

We're now at the 'Join the Nazi party or we will make your lives hell' part of the proceedings
What Homan says out loud about this is bad enough, but what he's not saying - but certainly knows - is that Trump's followers will harass, stalk, and threaten people whose names are publicized.
They're going to start using the Kirk witch hunt strategy.

All they want is WestminstEnders.
Political pundit class in the United Kingdom yearns for the days when every story could be a no-facts-only-vibes "what does <latest thing> mean for the political fortunes of Boris Johnson?" blag, and actively resents the way complicated events in the outside world keep pushing them to do real work.
This intro to David Frost's Telegraph column sums up so much that is wrong with British politics.

It's become embarrassingly clear.
Constitutional or not, if you have a government that will break the law, ignore the courts, follow no rules, there is no check and balance for that. None.

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.
“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”

It's crazy.
Rarely in history has so much damage been done to so many, so quickly, by so few, for the benefit of so few.
USA has fallen really fast. It was never the shining city on the hill that the mythmakers have always wanted to project, but in just one year it has been wholesale trashed.

Nadhim Zahawi was made Chancellor by Boris Johnson, only to call for a new leader a day later.
He backed Liz Truss as PM, before being appointed Tory Chair by Rishi Sunak, only to be sacked over his tax affairs.
His defection to Reform UK is another step in an eventful political career.

I won't watch BBC news anymore.
Their mealy-mouthed language and bothsidesing of issues that demand a strong unequivocal line has become too much.
The current BBC news would give airtime to Goebbels to explain the Nazi position and give Leni Riefenstahl a spot on Question Time.
