Labour, and the country, is relieved there is no Truss equivalent.

Amazing that she couldn’t think of anyone as intellectually bankrupt as herself. I’m sure there are plenty, though.

Not convinced by Streeting.

No, it reveals how racist it is for people of colour.

Should the tariffs ever be removed, so not expect the prices to go back down to exactly where they should be - there will be plenty of fleecing going on.

Still manned to be as racist as fuck in that message.

7 February 1932 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Salomon Niekerk, was born in Rijswijk.

On 20 January 1944 he was deported from Westerbork to the Theresienstadt ghetto and on 16 May 1944 sent in a transport to #Auschwitz. He did not survive.

Theresa May abandon all sense. She set ridiculous red lines and there was no sense of compromise at all. I remember her acceptance speech and thought that I'd give her a chance. What a waste of belief and hope. She also fostered the racist policies as Home Secretary and carried them on. Vile.

Sky presenter reflects on Trump's since-deleted video depicting Obamas as apes Sky News presenter Kamali Melbourne weighs in on a video shared online by the White House of the Obamas, which has sparked outrage after featuring imagery widely condemned as racist.

Well worth a listen. Anyone who hasn’t condemned it is ok with it. Obviously, I specifically aim this at politicians and leaders.

Trump says he 'didn't see' part of video with racist clip depicting Obamas as apes The US president says he "didn't make a mistake", adding he had only seen the beginning of the video before it was posted.

Let me correct this for you:

Trump won't apologise for racist video.

The US president indulges in horrific racism online. And the BBC report on this outrageous behaviour? I can’t see a word about it on their site. Am I missing it?

Not one of Starmer’s best weeks… You have to wonder what is in his mindset not to resign over the series of stories that have come out recently.

Please, please, media outlets, remember the C word: context. You can’t discuss Trump’s apes post - or his β€˜blame a staffer’ excuse - if you’re not also factoring in and reminding your viewers/readers about his birtherism, his β€˜send her back’ remarks, him calling Somalis β€˜low IQ’.

You can bet your life that Trump is stupid enough to think he was referring to ICE.

Trump’s funding a MAGA invasion of UK and EU 🚨 Code f*cking red 🚨

The Trump administration is creating a "slush fund" to turbocharge MAGA groups in the UK and EU, according to the FT.

This is code fucking red for democracy.

Trump makes an incredibly racist post and not one obvious mention of it on the BBC... Says it all, really.
