Today's stupid remark, Italy and the USA have been great friends since the days of ancient Rome.

The Italian translator is confused as to how to translate that without making all of Italy laugh at this fool.

Wow. This post from @thelondoneconomic.bsky.social has been shared 11,300 times & has 60,400 likes on @bsky.app. On X it has just 8 shares & 13 likes (despite a much larger following). Don’t tell me Musk isn’t throttling accounts. Thankfully the forecast going forward is BlueSky’s.

Dear @keirstarmer2.bsky.social,

Please move the laws around political & campaign financing to the top of your list

Or…

Expect 1 term that ends in handing power of this country to a foreign billionaire proxy PM and his little puppet

Yours,

The people of this country paying attention.
