Prediction: Trump is actively trying to get the EU and the UK to bite with all of these anti Ukraine policies he’s bringing out. When we do, he’ll use that to introduce tariffs and completely align with Russia

There's no end to it, is there. Every day, every hour, another concerted effort to sabotage and sacrifice Ukraine. The idea that Trump might offer something even approximating an acceptable peace is increasingly impossible to maintain.

Rejoining the EU is now a matter of urgent national security and self interest. Not only for the obvious benefits of a united front against Russia and an increasingly hostile America, but to gain access to the huge amount of investment currently being discussed. #russiawantsbrexit

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Now the Tories step up their Reform attacks:

“Nigel Farage is completely wrong. President Zelenskyy is a hero, who has stood up to Putin's aggression, and led his country's defence against their barbaric and illegal invasion… and it is troubling to not hear the Leader of Reform say that.”

🇪🇺🇬🇧 Through my first set of meetings in Brussels. The praise for Starmer is overwhelming: “What he has managed to do is not just good for him. It's good for all of us. Absolutely top notch. This is the UK at its best. The UK we have always admired.

I'm coming at this late. Just seen this. It might be the single worst moment in intentional politics that I have ever witnessed.
BREAKING: There has just been a huge argument between Zelenskyy, Trump & Vance in the Oval Office.

Trump calls Zelenskyy disrespectful and says he “is no position to dictate” to the US.

Trump raises his voice to Zelenskyy. He can’t stand someone standing up to him.

This is unbelievable.

He is not just appeasing Putin, he is aligned with him. And every single client journalist, political shill & public/online cheerleader on both sides of the Atlantic is too. Against Zelensky. Against Ukraine. Against freedom. Against the most basic tenets of decency.

My mind drifts back to the people who told me that "all politicians are the same" and that it made "no difference" whether Harris or Trump won.

Zelenskyy has huge balls. Doing this all right in front of the press. Honestly the first bit of inspiring media I've seen in a long time.

A truly astounding exchange. The Zelensky/Trump meeting descends into an out and out slanging match. Perhaps the most remarkable thing we’ve ever seen recorded in the Oval Office.
Jesus, Trump and JD Vance playing bad cop-bad cop with Zelensky is stomach churning here.

This is objectively crazy. I can’t quite believe what I’ve just watched
Trump to Zelenskyy: "Don't tell us what we're gonna feel. You're in no position to dictate that. You're in no position to dictate what we're gonna feel. We're gonna feel very good and very strong. You're right now not in a very good position. You're gambling with World War 3."

Spot on—I’ve seen plenty of criticism of Starmer’s actions, but only from the far left or far right. Always amusing when they agree—a sure sign you’re on the right track.
So far as I can see, criticism of Starmer boils down to a wish that Trump were not President and that UK didn't have to deal with US. We all wish it. It's sadly not so.

We're in the same car. He's driving. The aim is to keep him engaged, get him to slow down. The aim is not to crash. That's it. 1/2

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.
