To imagine that he would happily meet the assh0le that is Trump before Harry is beyond sensibility.

We’re out and about across the UK today to tell MPs and constituents that our country is missing out on £460m a week without a wealth tax.
Rachel Reeves doesn’t need to make cuts, instead she can tax the richest people like us to build a better Britain.

This is absolutely shocking if true. A government's treatment of its most vulnerable citizens is a key indicator of its humanity and the strength of its social fabric. Enough is enough

What we hopefully learn from Trump and joker boris is that 'boring' people are actually better leaders than showmen are.

It’s been more than a decade since I last held my head high as a UK 🇬🇧 UK citizen when abroad.
I guess about 50% USA 🇺🇸 citizens are experiencing a similar new interval - I extend my sympathies to them all.

🇪🇺🇬🇧 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.

France’s PM François Bayrou, speaking in a parliamentary debate on Ukraine, has torn into Trump’s Oval Office thrashing of Volodymyr Zelensky, calling it a staggering show of brutality that aimed to humiliate Ukraine’s leader.

As we welcome the news that the UK will support Ukraine with a £2.26bn loan…

Here’s your reminder that the Conservatives wasted £9.9bn on unusable or defective PPE

Never forget their staggering corruption and incompetence.

Pecksniff nails it. Again.

The F word needs to be used. History shows that fascism thrives on the inability of others to speak its name. Winning elections does not make fascist ideology legitimate, nor give its behaviour a mandate.

Love is legitimate. Humanity is the mandate. Unity the answer.
"Dear reader, the United States of America, formerly known as the ‘Land of the Free’, is now well on its way to becoming a fascist state."

Political diarist, Pecksniff, assesses this week's events on the global stage.

Sky News, "Ukrainians are ready for anything, even the loss of US support"

"They are turning to Europe, hoping their European partners can step up and fill that void"

Ukrainians preferring the stability of Europe to the chaos of the US under Trump

Why isn't the UK preferring Europe to the US?

Another mad element of that press conference is that Trump & Vance were ordering Zelensky to thank them personally for aid that Joe Biden had provided. All while insulting Biden & ignoring Zelensky’s frequent previous expressions of gratitude.

Italy will provide EUR 13 million to support Ukraine's energy systems, according to the Ministry of Energy.

An agreement was signed, which will allow Ukraine to purchase equipment and strengthen the resilience of our energy grid.

Thank you, Italy! 🇮🇹🇺🇦
