Trump looks like he’s lifting an arse cheek and a ‘Silent But Deadly’ in UVDL’s direction and she’s losing the will to live.

This is the most frightening thing I’ve listened to in a long time. Our son, who researches AI for his work, says what he’s been learning is unnerving.

Wonderful to see and hear the huge spontaneous applaud breaking out when Zelenskyy appears in the Vatican for Papa Francisco’s requiem.

Great cartoon in Private Eye.
Children and grandchildren often want us to give them time for activities that can be exhausting or boring [for us] or when it’s inconvenient for us.
But it has to be done 😂

I think the majority of people in Britain will be furious if we don’t hit back.
We’re fed up with Trump’s bullying.

Some of the candidates in County Durham standing for the far right Reform Party.
Please stop laughing at them. It’s very rude.

Trump might be getting a [clenched-teeth] warm reception from Buckingham Palace when he arrives, for the state visit he craves.
He’ll pollute our country with his fetid presence.
He is loathed by the majority of people in Britain.
The protests against him will be colossal.

Passing Menwith in Yorkshire and seeing those gigantic golf balls made me think. This is the world’s largest facility for eavesdropping on Russia. How can intelligence be shared with our allies any longer when Trump is in hock to Putin and stabs Ukraine in the back?
The answer is that it can’t.

I have huge admiration for Keir Starmer but instead of cutting aid for the poorest and most vulnerable people on Earth why doesn’t he tax the billionaires [who couldn’t spend all their money even if they tried]?

Over the last 24 hours, Ukrainian forces successfully targeted and destroyed a Russian Buk-M3 air defense system in the southern combat zone. The cost of the destroyed equipment is estimated to be around $25 million, dealing a significant blow to Russian military capabilities in the region.

This is a poor headline from the BBC. The US aren't offering a "deal" - they want the minerals in return for support already given. It's straight up extortion.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

Under Trump the assumption is that if you’re from an ethnic minority, female, or LGBT, you cannot possibly have achieved any office through merit. And so Brown and Franchetti are sacked and the white supremacist purge gathers pace.

Sometimes in history there is no argument,

Through corruption, treachery, and disinformation, a Putin stooge has seized control of the USA. Farage and Reform are the vehicles for Russia to do the same in Britain.
