President Trump, "Young people are respecting us again too. I won the young vote. I want to thank Charlie. I want to thank TikTok"

Left: Boris Johnson dancing with fairy wings

Right: That time ITV News reporting that Boris Johnson "had been shamed for misleading parliament over a string of illegal parties in Downing Street in lockdown"

A much needed timeline cleanse, spotted this fellow on a London bus a few days ago ☺️

Have a good evening 🙏

No, just putting them together

Left: Netanyahu, "From the Jordan river to the Mediterranean sea, that will always remain in Israel's hands"

Right: Keir Starmer says the chant from the river to the sea is an anti-semitic chant

Elon Musk to EU Policy Maker Thierry Breton in 2022, "Anything my companies can do that will be beneficial to Europe, we want to do that"

From working with Europe in 2022 to wanting to abolish the EU in 2025

What changed?

Scott Bessent, "Putin is now making incursions into NATO borders, the US is not going to get involved. We will sell the Europeans weapons"

Great to have allies..

Ilhan Omar, "It's completely disgusting"

"These are Americans that President Trump is calling garbage"

"It's also really important for us to remember that this kind of hateful rhetoric and this level of dehumanising can lead to dangerous actions by people who listen to the president"

MTG says the reason Republicans don't speak up against Trump is because they're scared of him

"I watched many of my Republican colleagues go from making fun of Trump, making fun of how he talks"

"To when he won the primary in 2024, they all started kissing his ass"

Steve Richards, "The number mission of this Labour government is economic growth"

"If Labour want it, they should go back into the EU Customs Union as quickly as possible"

Greg Dyke, "The numbers have shifted"

"If you had the referendum today the UK would not have left the European Union"

"We could end up with the majority of people wanting to go back in but with a powerful Farage lobby or government at the next election"

"And you think, this is bizarre isn't it"

Laura Kuenssberg, "When you look at the polling The Greens are scooping up"

"One party on the left that has been enjoying great recent success, who have elected a new single leader, is of course The Greens, with Zack Polanski"

"They're doing incredibly well in the polls"

Ava Santina, "In budget minimum wage increased £12.71 which is good on paper"

"But if a graduate is coming out of university earning £26,000 on min wage, how are they going to afford to live in a big city when rents are around £1,000 for a dirty room on the edge of the city?"

💯

James Reed, "We've also seen a collapse in graduate vacancies, this as been going on for 3-4 years now"

"I think it's to do with AI, and new automation in the workplace"

I'm all for AI and innovation, but countries are not preparing themselves for what AI is going to the workplace

Pat McFadden, "Under the Tory system we inherited, people got double the money for declaring themselves unfit for work"

"Labour have cut that difference in half"

Helen Whateley, "What Reform UK is offering to the country is very different to what Kemi Badenoch's Conservative party is offering"

"We recognise the seriousness of the problems the country has"

- Which the Conservative party created over the past 14 years 🤷‍♂️

Laura Kuenssberg points out that she said millions receive a Motability when its actually 1.1 million

Helen Whateley, "I was making a general point about the problems that we have"

Conservative Helen Whately humiliating herself on #BBCLauraK

She starts by complaining about Motability which the Conservatives actually expanded

Then acknowledges she doesn't know how many are actually on Motability

£90 billion from Rejoining the EU

Left: Keir Starmer acknowledges Brexit is an economic disaster

Right: Pat McFadden says Labour will not take the UK into a Customs Union with the EU as David Lammy suggested, citing three trade deals with India, UK and UK-EU reset

Labour thinks we're idiots

I’m starting the completely made up rumour that Liz Truss attempted to defect to Reform but Farage turned her down.

Pass it on.

Good morning, napping at Painshill Park ☺️

Have a calm Sunday 🙏

This is how Spanish TV announced the boycott of Eurovision

If Russia is banned for what they're doing to Ukraine, surely Israel should be banned for what they're doing in Palestine?

When is the UK going to boycott Eurovision?

Good morning, a pair of lady's slipper orchids to start your weekend ☺️

Have a good Saturday 🙏

🚨🚨 God #America, this is grim and a very stark wake-up call to European political ledaders on the (non) future of the "transatlantic alliance":

The UK, detached from Europe and sucking up to Trump, is particularly vulnerable. I hope our politicians are listening.
#AirstripOne

When Britain was toying with Putin’s pet project Brexit from 2013, Putin was also planning to annex Ukraine, starting with Crimea in 2014.

We need to rejoin as a full member, return at the heart of the European Union.

We are not special.

But we can be responsible.

And Cameron was an idiot.

Liz Truss live from Lettuce TV,

"We're going to look at the Trump revolution, and see how this can be achieved in Britain"

2025: Elon Musk wants the European Union to be abolished

2016: That time David Cameron reminded us of the benefits of being in the EU including the special op-out status the UK once had

The EU union setup is often considered "better" than the US state system in terms of sovereignty and flexibility
