The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying £7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a ‘moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left?
All the shifts are in just one direction.

Multiple drone attacks across Ukraine last night, including on a hospital. This on a day that Putin claimed he’s committed to peace.

Trump knows nothing. And cares even less. He has not even a basic grounding in history. His tiny brain just seems to function through a very limited prism of vanity, greed and vindictiveness.
Nothing beyond himself matters to him. He’ll burn it all down in his spasms of prejudice and egomania.

BREAKING - Trump just said he doubts whether France or other NATO members would help America if we needed it.
WRONG. The Article 5 mutual defense obligation has been invoked only ONCE in the 75 years of NATO.
To help America. After 9/11. And our allies answered the call.

⭐ Key findings ⭐
1️⃣ Participants consistently underestimated the carbon impact of high-impact behaviors (like flying and eating meat) and overestimated the impact of lower-impact behaviors (like recycling). These results are well-aligned with previous research.

This is mind boggling yet oh-so-believable!!!
We all agreed that the Zelenskyy visit to the WH was an ambush. Now we know why?
They tried for 40 long minutes to rile him up, to get him to say the wrong thing, to make him upset. He didn’t.
And then the impertinent sofa-jerker stepped in🤬🤬🤬

This is a clear and direct violation of the Budapest Memorandum of 1994 - in which US gave security guarantee to Ukraine in exchange for Ukraine giving up nukes and ships
