Quite amazing for the American VP to be giving lessons on liberty to Europeans while his boss bans the Associated Press from news briefings because it calls the Gulf of Mexico by its actual name.
The White House says it is banning the Associated Press from the Oval Office and Air Force One.

So lets recap:

- Trump announces tariffs.
- Allies turn against the U.S., launch boycotts on U.S. products and boo us at events.
- Markets nosedive.
- Trump caves.

The "deals":
- Mexico agrees to do the same things they always do at the border to help the U.S. (including under Biden) 1/

FANTASTIC NEWS! Romania’s Constitutional Court has just annulled the first round of the presidential election due to heavy Russian interference. The second round will not take place on Sunday and the first round will be re-run. The electoral authorities will have to validate all candidates again.

Kemi Badenoch at #PMQs: "We had a budget in March this year and tractors were not blockading the streets of Whitehall afterwards."

Here are the tractors blockading the streets of Whitehall in March this year. They were protesting - you really couldn't make this up - Badenoch's trade policies. 😂

Embarrassing lightweight alert!

At PMQs, Badenoch - leader of the Opposition - tries to assert that a rightwing/Musk/foreign-bot-boosted online petition is reason to call a general election.

And in so doing, showily slides the grubby remnants of her credibility and dignity into the bin.

I’m so glad Andrew Tate was denied a voice here. Why should we be confronted with his aggressive misogyny and homophobia? Why should he get to spew his hatred anywhere? Of course we can reject him and all he stands for. It needs to be our response more often.
Thank you 🦋

Severn Trent Water six month pre-tax profit up from £71m to £192m.

CEO got £3.2m, company fined £2m for dumping 260m litres of sewage.

Long-term debt £12bn. Dividend up from 46.74p per share to 48.68p.

It wants a 50% price rise in customer bills.

Yep. When Just Stop Oil or Extinction Rebellion disrupt traffic; hangings too good for 'em. When loaded landowners do it, it's perfectly acceptable.

The protestors want to call it "the tractor tax" because calling it "the inheritance tax protest" would turn off public opinion.

The tractors coming into London today, in fact, pay no road tax, no congestion charge, and no ULEZ.

The idea that Bluesky is insular and X is a place for diverse views is a fallacy.

X is based on an algorithm rigged to push the views of Musk and others on the far right.

Bluesky is open. You can make it whatever you want it to be.
