Trump & Vance’s treatment of Zelenskyy was a snub to all of Europe.

And the pair of them can fuck right off.

I don’t want them having a single rare earth atom from European soil.

I don’t want their military bases.

I want Europe to throw everything into driving Russia off Ukrainian soil.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.

Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy.

We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

We all know the power of the USA, how important they are for keeping world peace.
But they’ve elected a monster, a maverick, a felon, a dangerous loose canon. They DID this!
Sometimes you just have to do the right thing & call out bullies & degenerates.
The time is now.
Stand up for what is right!

Jeez. This is absolutely appalling & shameful from Trump and Vance. President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin

Should Trump’s state visit to the UK go ahead after this?

🚨 BREAKING: President Macron reacts to the dispute between Zelensky, Trump, and Vance at the White House.

“You must respect those who fight,” Macron said, adding that it is crucial to remember that there is “an aggressor and a victim."

“Russia is the aggressor, Ukraine is the victim of aggression”

Perhaps we can stop being so parochial about Starmer's trip to Washington now. It was a failure. We are in a battle against fascism. And every decision we make is judged by whether it assisted or opposed it.

The Scottish Labour Party was a socialist party in Scotland that was active between 1976 and 1981. It formed as a breakaway from the UK Labour Party. It won 3 council seats in 1977 but lost its MPs at the 1979 election and was dissolved 2 years later.

No longer registered with Electoral Commission.

Can't help but feel that they will particularly target cuts to benefits that have been devolved to push Scotland into further mitigations. Playing politics with benefits in the run up to the 2026 Holyrood elections.

During last year’s election campaign, Anas Sarwar told me: “read my lips, no austerity under Labour”.

The reports of Labour’s planned cuts are deeply concerning, and any more Westminster austerity would push more people into poverty.

Hereditary peers having a predictable moan about this probably being their last year in the House of Lords… and saying how they represent the country!!

Righto

The whole House of Lords needs RADICAL reform (second biggest chamber in the world next to China🤔)

Sir Keir Starmer says the right to sit in the Lords by birth is "indefensible" and his government has started the process to end it.
