Emmanuel Macron has no problem criticising Trump.
What's stopping Starmer from finding a backbone?
It's time to stop sucking up to Trump, and pivot at warp speed back to Europe.

Farage needs to be made to squirm now that his bestie Trump is putting tariffs on the UK over Greenland. But I won't be holding my breath that Laura Kuenssberg will put him on the spot when he appears (again) on her BBC show tomorrow.

I have to admit, I didn’t know this: Russia reopened “criminal cases” against Lithuanians who refused to serve in the Soviet army. These people were not even Russian citizens.
This is insane and shows how deeply Soviet legacy still shapes modern-day Russia

JUST IN: Canada just drew a hard line. Prime Minister Mark Carney made it clear: Article 5 is not optional and Denmark is not standing alone. Canada is backing Denmark and Greenland while the U.S. openly talks annexation. This is a warning. Allies see it, and they’re done pretending this is normal.

Wouldn't it be brilliant if every World Cup game in Canada and Mexico is sold out,
while matches played in the USA are to empty stadiums?

I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.
