English as tuppence, changing and changeless as canal water,
nestling in green nowhere, armoured and effete, bold flag bearer,
opsimath, eremite, feudal reactionary.

Donald Trump is ramping up his trade wars and crashing the global economy. He's not sparing the UK from his new tariffs, so why should we roll out the red carpet for him with a second state visit? Join more than 200,000 and add your name to he petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.  This is the...

Maybe if the UK condemned and acted against the Gaza genocide this wouldn't be an issue www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The ban means supporting the group could potentially carry a maximum sentence of 14 years.

Feel free to come and me for this, but in my opinion Men should not even have a say/vote in this AT ALL www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Women and men diverge more than ever on support for abortion rights, poll shows

If Musk can't buy an election in Wisconsin, then hopefully the billionaire backers can't buy New York for Andrew Cuomo. You can hope.

Pretty ironic given the Standard is owned by a Russian immigrant who was a Russian intelligence officer.

Also it cites 'Professor Matt Goodwin'

Not a good sign
Today’s London Standard has a big report on how the capital “isn’t working”. It blames immigrants, especially Muslims, and the lack of “White British”. It asks “if there’s a minimum number of natives” at which London must give it up its status as the UK capital. www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/lond...

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE.

Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it.

Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

When I was at Politics.co.uk I used to commission this guy to write straight-down-the-line, reasoned, academic analysis of public opinion. His decade-long descent into far-right grift has been quite something to watch
