We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.

Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.

So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

Two mothers could be stoned to death. Sham trials. Coerced confessions. And a sentence of stoning! One million of us spoke up to help overturn a similar case โ€“ sign now to do it again.

Everything he touches rots. Culture becomes a branding exercise, institutions get hollowed out, and public heritage is treated like a personal toy. Destruction dressed up as renovation, ego sold as greatness. This isnโ€™t leadership, itโ€™s vandalism with a press release.

Associating with Jeffrey Epstein or attempting a coup will land you in prison in the UK or South Korea.

In America, doing both lands you in the White House.

The video from Nigel Farage gives the
impression that he was individually refused
access.

The video from Nigel Farage gives the impression that he was individually refused access.

Farage is in the Maldives.

200 miles away from the Chagos Islands which are not a
tourist destination.

Hasn't got the paperwork and wasn't on the 'aid boat' he's pointing at which is trying to establish a settlement for four people on the islands.

How is this serving Clacton? Who paid?

Amid all the MAGA lying about voter fraud, there are some genuine instances. The reason you don't hear about them is that they involve MAGA activists trying to steal elections. Elon Musk, for example, sent pre-completed absentee ballots to thousands of Georgians.

That's illegal under Georgia law.

When will MAHA voters realize that they've been played?

Despite RJK Jr's rhetoric, America is getting sicker under Trump. Trump rejected limits on artificial chemical dyes, other additives, or toxic pesticides. Power plants can now emit unlimited amounts of mercury, radium, and other toxins.

Please keep your dogs from disturbing sea birds which are feeding and roosting on shorelines, as the birds need to eat and rest. Being scared up into the air every few minutes is very damaging.

The silence of the international community over repeated attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinian villages is a shame.

This silence exposes clear double standards that, in the long run, will do more damage than Trump ever could.

In โ€˜normalโ€™ times, these incidents would cause international outrage and be front page news everywhere

This can not & must not be normalised

It is astonishing that there are no repercussions for the US Administration for essentially kidnapping and falsely incarcerating European & British tourists

Some positive UK public finance news ๐Ÿ‘‡

It now looks like borrowing for 2025/26 will come in not just lower than 2024/25, but lower than was forecast in November. The uptick in income tax receipts (including bumper January self-assessment returns) is a good sign and welcome news for the Chancellor.
