She is gaslighting us with the chronic misconception that "irregular immigration" is the cause of division in this country. It's not. If she stops the boats tomorrow, Farage will just whip up the hatred against the next group to blame to deflect tackling the real socioeconomic problems of inequality

#Zia_Yousuf - utter hypocrisy this morning over Starmer's comments. There are countless examples of Farage and Reform using the rhetoric of "stochastic terrorism" to incite hatred and possible violence towards their targets.

It's all well and good to point out the hypocrisy, dishonesty, inconsistency, incompetence, and downright appalling nature of a political party and its leaders.

However, when the party's voters simply do not care and indeed find it all rather appealing, it may be time to deploy different tactics.

#skynews Unbelievably, Liz Truss is still trying to extricate herself from the national loss of ยฃ40M (with a little assistance from Wilfred).
Hopefully, her Prince Andrew moment.
Meanwhile, what about Angel Rayner?

What is getting harder is Trump giving up slices of Ukraine to Putin in return for drilling/digging rights of Ukranian natural resources and US civilians on the ground providing Trump's idea of the US security guarantee.

If Ukraine is hoping for US security guarantees to make a peace deal, don't expect it to be more than US civilians, in Ukraine, digging up rare earth metals and other valuable resources for Trump ๐Ÿ˜‰

@darrenpjones.bsky.social Stop claiming Trump's lower tariffs on the UK compared to the EU as a Brexit benefit.
We have a trade deficit with the US whereas the EU has a large surplus. Had Trump applied the same rules, the tariffs facing the UK would be negative!
We've been hit harder

The abandonment of Ukraineโ€™s defense is in violation of the 1994 Budapest Memorandum-

An agreement and a promise from the United States established to defend Ukraine's territory.

In exchange, they relinquished their nuclear weapons.

Abandoning them is
abhorrent and in violation of the treaty.

Trump's minerals deal for peace does not only display a surrender to Putin, it's evidence that he's become a partner in the invasion.

Trump doesnโ€™t want peace for Ukraine, he wants surrender.

Thatโ€™s the only messaging you need.

if you take Trump at his ~word that his desire is to avoid WWIII breaking the Pax Americana and forcing Europe and probably Japan to rapidly remilitarize is nearly the worst way I can think of to do it

Trump tells Zelensky 'make a deal or we're out' in angry White House meeting - follow live A joint news conference is cancelled after the US president calls his Ukrainian counterpart

This is brutal.

Donald Trump is only interested in money and power.

President Zelenskyy is trying to save his people and country.

Russia and US have agreed to carve-up Ukraine, Russia getting territory and US getting mineral wealth.

Trump is no ally for any country.

What an appalling Trump/Vance (representing the USA) set up.

They want to abandon Ukraine and Ukrainians for a deal for resources.

Disgraceful but no one should be surprised!

MIKE JOHNSON: "That's not what I said."
 
REPORTER: "Right, but it's what's happening. You're handing major government functions to a private citizen with no oversight. If he was in the EPA, you'd be calling him a 'deep state bureaucrat."

Forget Democrats. Until Republicans get a spine and stand up to โ€œTruskโ€, America is on the road to civil war and collapse.

The Constitutionโ€™s much vaunted โ€œChecks and Balancesโ€ arenโ€™t worth the parchment theyโ€™re written on because they rely on good people saying โ€œenough is enoughโ€.

No sign yet.

After Raskin issued a harsh takedown of Musk, triggering a Twitter fight between the two, Raskin pressed further, asking Musk a simple question: As someone who supposedly works for the government now, will he submit to basic financial disclosure and conflict-of-interest rules?

Europe urgently needs its own plan of action concerning Ukraine and our security, or else other global players will decide about our future. Not necessarily in line with our own interest. This plan must be prepared now. Thereโ€™s no time to lose.

JD Vance had dedicated his entire Munich speech to lecturing Europeans on "the threat from within" and maintaining "values". He criticised Europe for defending the integrity of elections.

Let's be clear. The Trump Administration is attempting to spread its populist authoritarianism across the West.
