Genuine question, is it safer to ignore that executive order and risk death, or buy and drive a Tesla (TSLA) and risk death?

More than a quarter of now Canadians view the United States as an 'enemy' country: poll The poll comes as U.S. President Donald Trump threatens to impose economically devastating tariffs on Canada and has repeatedly pushed the idea that Canada should become a U.S. state.

Oh, Canada!!!
🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦

25% of Canadians now believe the US is an "enemy of the state."

Thanks, lardass.

America has turned on its friends Donald Trump’s abandonment of allies is real and will endure

A pretty good summary of where I also believe that we are. We need to strengthen with our European 🇪🇺 friends, to survive in a world where America is now the enemy.

Donald Trump Was Recruited by the KGB Under Codename 'Krasnov' Claims Former Soviet Spy Chief A former senior KGB chief claims Trump was recruited by them in 1987 due to his role as a prominent US businessman

If true this would explain a lot...

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

The benefits of our Special Relationship with the USA can now be found in the same bin as the benefits of Brexit and the competence of the last Tory government.

The lies are the point: Ukraine is a battle for objective reality

What I object to is that she’s still being paid by the taxpayer, as a former PM, a considerable amount of money to spout this divisive and dangerous nonsense. Taxpayer funded payments to her should stop!!

‘The perfect target’: Russia cultivated Trump as asset for 40 years – ex-KGB spy The KGB ‘played the game as if they were immensely impressed by his personality’, Yuri Shvets, a key source for a new book, tells the Guardian

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021...

Whilst this is an old story, it explains what we are seeing now around Trump’s attitude towards Ukraine 🇺🇦, The West and Russia 🇷🇺.

The rest of us will be behind the Canadians and Democracy.

Enabling Act of 1933 - Wikipedia

Polls are now irrelevant, as Trump dismantles the US state and constitution.

He’s now been elected and will be almost impossible to eject, even when his term is up.

He’s looking at legislating that only he and his AG can interpret law. Trump’s own’Enabling Act’

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enablin...

My concern is that he won’t leave when his term is up.

The irony of her complaining that she should be listened to, because she’s an expert. She should listen to one of her heroes, Michael Gove, who famously said,
"I think the people of this country have had enough of experts".

YouTube video by LBC Headteacher livid with Labour's education plans

Exquisite victimhood. But nobody MADE her a hard right pin-up & culture warrior. She didn't HAVE to write in the Telegraph or speak at Tory Conferences & neocon US think tanks.

Her being sidelined is just the flip-side of the huge partisan favour she has enjoyed for years.

He’s a sociopath and a malignant narcissist, so he thinks he is superior to everyone else in every way…

I would say that he’s a bully and uses a bullying style to try and get others to bend to his will, rather than that he’s thick.

He’s also cocky and can’t imagine that anyone would outsmart him or stand up to him, when Canada and Mexico did, he backed off.

I agree that there will be a loss of faith in buying US goods from both Canadians and Mexicans, but more importantly, this strikes me as an ignominious walk back on Trump’s part, to try and save face, when he realised the effect tariffs would have on the US economy and his popularity!!

So neither Canada or Mexico will get tariffed but both countries will stop buying American goods after the terrible way Donald Trump has treated them.

Another huge Trump loss.

Labour’s decision to muzzle regulators in the name of ‘growth’ will backfire horribly | Nicolas Shaxson The Competition and Markets Authority is the strongest line of defence against monopolies, so its change in leadership really matters, writes the journalist Nicholas Shaxson

"A strange assumption has taken hold, including in the chattering classes: that there is a trade-off between good things like regulatory protections, and economic growth"

A long standing UK problem. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Last month, a poll by the European Council on Foreign Relations found that 55% think Britain should get closer to the EU, only 10% who want a more distant relationship.

A whopping 68% said they would be happy for Starmer to drop his red line on the free movement of people.

I think the playoffs are realistic at the moment.
Automatic promotion is the real dream 😀

Absolutely agree 👍. Great 🧵

A reflection on #qpr latest run of form 🧵

I am EXCITED. But not because QPR are suddenly Barcelona, #hmspisstheleague etc. I'm excited because we seem to be bedding in a culture of sustainable, incremental development. It’s not sexy, but it’s a rich oasis in the panicky desert of the last 10 years.

Thames Water is still going bankrupt after they were refused the ability to put their bills up 20% overnight.

It is time to let Thames Water go bankrupt, renationalise for free, and show all the privatised water companies what happens when they go bankrupt.

They lose everything

I wish they would stop stating the bloody obvious and just get on with fixing the fundamental problem that is making us ‘a more closed economy’. I.e we need to rejoin at least the single market and customs union NOW!!! #rejoineu

Douglas Alexander: "#Brexit has not only inhibited cross-Channel trade to the EU, but risks making the UK a more closed economy... There was a post-Covid manufacturing boom globally, where the UK effectively just missed out. We were judged to be more challenging to do business with." ~AA

I’m not Starmer’s greatest fan, but the fervour with which right wingers want rid of him, for stuff that the tories were responsible for, suggests to me that he’s doing something right and they’re scared he’ll fix their mess!

The Prime Minister has questions to answer over Southport The public need to know that the people in the centre of Government acted honestly and transparently

Really quite extraordinary to see demands for Starmer's resignation, in response to his being open about terrible mistakes that happened between 2017-2024, from the very politicians who were in charge during that time - sometimes at the depts that messed up. ~AA
