I don't disagree with you at all but some leadership would help, don't you think? What do you think it will take to fix this?

Genuine question though, Sam, where is Starmer on this? Comms are his and his team's weakness, but the silence is deafening.

Utterly ridiculous decision making by the BBC. Who got paid to organise this?

Way to engage teenagers in politics @bbclaurak.bsky.social. The week the govt announce plans to extend the vote the best they can do for their panel is 4 middle aged white men (including Farage again, no Greens)

Agreed. It's what he's looking for.

He's not even close to the truth. 3 people crossed the border, 99.999% drop in border crossings, no inflation?!

One Ship, $417 Million in New Tariffs: The Cost of Trump’s Trade War Data suggests companies importing cargo on the OOCL Violet face at least $417 million in new Trump administration tariffs.

One ship heading to the USA from China... $564 million in goods, $417 million in new tariffs on those goods.

Edu-oligarchs? In what sense? And why? No one forced her decision on Ofsted, it was tin-eared.

You need to go through the back catalogue. Cricket did it for me, baby race is another tear jerker.

Which one was it? There are so many that'll do this to you. It's joyous but man they can pull on the heartstrings

Not sure I agree. These teams have a spell of 3 or 4 games, then fall back, it can't be sustained.

The White House Twitter account’s dishonest & hideous doctoring of a New York Times front page describing Senator Chris Van Hollen’s meeting with a wrongly deported man with no criminal record.

The cruelty is the point. The banal, vicious, performative cruelty. Turns out ‘anti-woke’ just meant anti-decency, anti-humanity & anti-rule of law.

Senator Chris Van Hollen is on his way to El Salvador to discuss bringing Kilmar Abrgeo Garcia back home.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Market manipulation

90 day pause on tariffs... what happened to bringing the factories back to America?

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

BTW let's just be clear that these numbers are utterly made up, adding in all sorts of random stuff. By these calculations the EU charges the US 4x the tariffs that Brazil does. Not "reciprocal" in any way whatsoever.

The standout madness in the general madness are the enormous tariffs on South East Asia which, if these stick, is going to magnify China's sphere of influence. Geopolitical lunacy.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy.

“It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

🚨 BREAKING: After torpedoing yesterday’s meeting with Zelensky, JD Vance fled to Vermont for vacation—only to be met by hundreds of furious protesters.

Couldn’t have happened to a better guy!

Class from Starmer

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

Buyer's remorse, only one month in.

Where are the Democrats here?! Where are the moderate Republicans? Obama? Clinton? Anyone?

True colours firmly on show here.

Just started reading this too. It's brilliant. Jones is an exceptionally good historical writer.

Only just breaking on BBC, why the delay?

Creating a starter pack gives serious energy. I just wouldn't dare.
