Ukraine has been under russian drone attacks for most of the night.

Russian cruise missiles are expected to enter our airspace in half an hour, bringing more death and destruction.

Again, we play this deadly lottery while the world watches.

Just seen reports Trump saying Ukraine β€˜better come to the table, fast’. Can’t do that, sorry. Busy shooting down Russian drones

We don't need a Wealth Tax, we need a 100% tax on all wealth above a certain amount.

Lets say $100m, that's more than enough.

We need to outlaw outrageous wealth, not just try reduce it a bit.

Billionaires are a danger to everything and everyone.

As you can clearly see.

I cannot stress enough how enjoyable it is to deprive that withered old cunt of your money. Waterstones, Argos, Boots - it is so easy to get whatever you need, and it feels kinda fun, like taking a holiday in 90s Britain

Notable message from President Zelensky. The USA is clearly putting pressure on Ukraine to hand over more of its land to dictatorial Russia.

Good to see the Ukrainian pushback--but the USA should hang its head in shame.

I think one of the things that the internet has done to our politics is that it’s made people stop caring what’s true. What’s true is what gets the most retweets. What’s true is what my friends on social media will share and agree with. A lot of people can’t even seem to tell the difference anymore.

The UK was declared measles free in 2017.

Vaccine programs completely eliminated it.

Since then, pro sickness conspiracy theorists and anti science idiots have enabled its return.

Zelensky said he'd stop bombing Russia so we can have an election that's free. But our elections are free

Of opposition candidates.

How has a political party, that most people won't have heard about until this poll, have 10%? Make it make sense.

About sodding time. But it's just words, no proper effort to improve and build up UK forces since 2022.

❗️President Zelenskyy met with skeleton athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych, who was disqualified from the 2026 Olympics because of a helmet dedicated to the memory of Ukrainian athletes killed by Russia. The President awarded him the Order of Freedom and thanked him for his principled stance and courage.

Brexit and Trump.

Two sides of the same coin.

Both supported by Russia. Both beneficial to Russia. Both designed to make the West weaker.

No one in the West took back control, and they effectively handed it to Putin

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

This morning I posted our petition to get Palantir out of our NHS and our public services.

This should bring the Government down - criminalising legal protest to protect whom? Certainly not the people of this country, whose interests were they working for? Arms manufacturers? Another disgraceful stain on this Labour Government's appalling record on civil liberties

I've signed this petition because I'm fed up the UK government, whoever leads it, doing the best for big business (and in this case not even a UK business) rather than the UK population.

He's not wrong but, if that's the case, why is NATO so scared to do what is required for a complete Ukrainian victory rather?

All I can say is that a large minority of the UK electorate are stark raving mad.

The US isn't working towards peace. They're working under putin's orders. If the US wanted peace they would impose maximum sanctions on Russia and any country that traded with Russia. Putin has kompromat on trump which means trump does anything Putin desires.

There were 36 votes between the Green Party and Reform.

36 votes.

Reform are absolutely stoppable - and the Green Party can win with our message to lower bills, protect the NHS and rebuild public services.

OTD in 1990 the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany was drafted

Despite how massively important NATO's promise was, and how it *totally* was made, the treaty makes NO mention of NATO allowing new eastern members. The USSR didn’t even ask for it to be included.

Suella Braverman says the ECHR stopped the ability to deliver border security
YouTube video by Britannia Times Suella Braverman says the ECHR stopped the ability to deliver border security

More spin from Reform.

Suella Braverman says the ECHR β€œcrippled” UK borders.
Reality:
β–ͺ️It was the UK Supreme Court that blocked Rwanda β€” unlawful.
β–ͺ️Just 13 ECHR rulings against UK removals since 1980.

Not about immigration.
It’s about human rights πŸ‘‡

I’m not playing this stupid game with Reform or any of their multimillionaire groupies, vilifying immigrants and moaning about the benefits bill from their tax havens and Dubai penthouses. Then lying about what they said and why.

Reform is a racist party. Relying on racist votes for power. End of.

Many people overlook that in only three months, Mariupol may have seen more deaths than Gaza throughout the entire war, even though its population was far smaller.

The true scale of Russian war crimes is often underestimated

Many years ago they used to be sceptical of anything they were told by anyone, until they could prove it themselves.

Since those days they have ruined their reputation by both siding everything they ever report, even when one side it clearly nuts, lying, both, etc.

In European countries many politicians, if there's even a hint of a connection to Epstein, are immediately losing their jobs.

Yet Americans continue to allow the Trump regime to rule. Why is the US incapable of handling the current situation? How can Trump continue?
