Action plan launched to build stronger communities The government is launching a rallying call for action, setting out the first steps towards a more connected, cohesive and resilient United Kingdom

I just want to say I love this focus by Labour on our communities. Rebuilding our relationships with our neighbours, often divided through deliberate divisive politics from Tories, Reform and other RW destroyers. So many benefits.

NEW: The Russian military simply does not have the capacity to overrun Ukrainian defenses that Putin constantly claims. Latest Assessment ⬇️(

Maryland Matters headline that reads “Maryland joins two dozen states challenging Trump’s second tariff push”

The President’s tariffs are unconstitutional and have directly impacted the lives of Marylanders.

I applaud @oagmaryland.bsky.social and his team for working to hold the President accountable and for protecting Marylanders from the Trump-Vance Administration.

Anthony Blinken says Israel tried to pressure Obama to bomb Iran, warning they’d do it with or without the U.S. Obama refused. Trump caved to the same tactic. Also worth noting: Obama’s name doesn’t appear in the Epstein tapes.

It's all a game to Trump and the Repubicans, a game to push up the price of oil for them and their mates to make another fortune.

I’m hollering at my screen… yaaas!

Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.

Trump talks like a little child.

How on Earth did the USA vote for this 'thing'?

“He’s (Trump) dealing [with it], and it may be a friendly takeover, it may not be a friendly takeover.'

'Tehran vows to use powerful missiles, rejects Trump talks'
Aljazeera

Has Trump bitten of more than he can chew?

Clacton got what they deserve as did Boston and Skeggy.

Farage is just another tool in the box that Trump will pick up, use and put back when he’s finished with it. And what kind of tool is Farage? A chisel!
And that makes Trump a chiseller!

SEVEN. That’s how many strikes hit near the Iranian girls’ school.

Video shows a tomahawk missile hitting a building next to the school. The kind of “precision” you get when an incompetent administration runs a war on outdated intelligence.

Don’t look away —we should all see the deadly destruction

Kids grow fast, and so do we.

This fall, we're adding more than 1,000 seats for universal 3-K in 56 zip codes. Childcare will be more accessible and affordable across all five boroughs.

UK rw papers went to press with the same line as the left hand NYT headline below. Fools and lickspittles.
