The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts.

The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

Would anyone rate Suella Braverman?
Thought not.

So why trust Reform when it’s full of the same people.

Never trust a Tory. Farage said it.

Now ask this. If Suella Braverman joined Reform would anyone suddenly vote for her. Of course not. Same politics. Same damage. New colour.

Turquoise Tories

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see.

Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him.

It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.

And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

It is time to be honest about Europeans who support Putin. They are traitors.

The exact same label applies to those who support Donald Trump.

Both leaders are openly hostile to European interests and security.

Supporting them is not a valid political opinion

The newest apple update is using AI to summarize text messages.

Had to turn this shit off. So tired of AI being shoved down my throat in every place I didn’t ask for it.

Add me to the chorus of people who do not like the new Apple OS update! It sucks ass!

Latest Apple IOS update is like an annoying, uninvited visitor who parked all their stuff in every nook and cranny of your house, and you’re forever coming across things, wondering what they are and how to get rid of them. Email summaries, rearrangements, apps I never asked for. Go away!

Well fuck me backwards what a sight. I can't believe that was only an hour and fifteen. It felt like seven years. I hope you all enjoyed watching Robert Jenrick's soul leave his decaying fetid fucking human body.

When I read about Zahawi & what he’s done. I can’t help but compare with Starmer.

I know with 100% certainty our PM would never defraud tax payers, never put money in offshore account, never threaten people who investigated, never backstab, never abuse his position.

Good to trust our PM

Another ten announcements in the last day.

Government back doing and not just saying. From smashing the gangs, to more focus on protecting women and girls from rogue taxi drivers and from revenge porn.

Having listened to James OBrien’s show this morning I’m even more aware of the importance to get the response to Trump right. I’m glad a man with such caution is involved in that response for us and presumably the EU. He’s well qualified for this. These are dangerous times.

I remember a time when Boris Johnson shuffled around alone, shunned by many in this group.

Keir Starmer is front and centre and that says it all.
