Middle class woman of a certain age. Can’t abide the very silly and ignorant use of words like ‘woke’ and the equally absurd invention of ‘culture wars’ by third rate hacks. Proud EU rejoiner, a fan of civilised debate. Love London.

Unbelievably stupid not to listen graciously to our top money expert, instead she talks over him and will not shut up.

I think the people of this country have had enough of tax-exile billionaires.

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

Been following this all through 2025. Think of the $$$ not spent by this may people. Some estimate $50 Billion. Probably a combination of people not wanting to come here & less disposable income for others.

Indeed - Farage would probably say the same about the murder of US
citizens at the hands of ICE - ‘Oh that’s just Trump being Trump.’ Do Reform supporters realise they would be voting to become a US vassal, guns on the streets ‘n all.

Know who's not afraid of releasing the Epstein files?
Bill Clinton.
He and Hillary keep saying to release them all and the the truth come out.

I wish it were true that "no one is above the law". But while the City of London acts as laundromat for the world's dirty money, as almost all fraud and waste crime go unprosecuted, as no one has gone to jail for the financial crash or the poisoning of our rivers, this is manifestly untrue.

Sadly, the current US administration consists of miserablist philistines and barbarians who know the price of everything and the value of nothing - joyless people whose wealth and power has dehumanised them. Do they ever smile?

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Another pet peeve: Under Trump, the term "diplomat' has come to mean unqualified, ignorant hack.

It is like the way "patriot" has come to mean anti-American, pro-fascist bigot.

Orwellian double-speak is the official language of the Trump Administration.

Video shows moments around fatal shooting in Minneapolis Bystander footage has captured the seconds before the killing of 37-year-old Alex Pretti.

If that's what they're willing to do in public, while being filmed, what do they do behind closed doors?

measures to protect all NY citizens in the coming storm regardless of their status compared with the ICE murder in Minneapolis makes me think this really is a battle between Good and Evil.

1500 mile ‘monster storm’ hitting Mexico to New York. If I were religious I would be tempted to believe that it’s God’s wrath aimed at Trump and his murderous ICE assassins. If only.

Here’s some UK-centric news (do we need a UK division of BlueSky?). Labour all my life BUT look at the politics of blocking Burnham from standing - anti democratic and unconfident. I’d rather he hadn’t applied BUT BLOCKING HIM Is DISASTROUS!

The sole criterion seems to be that if you live in a state run by Democrats you’re a legitimate target for ICE thugs.

We’ve been watching live footage on BBC News of ICE troops terrorising people on the streets of Minneapolis. - unbelievable. Words are inadequate but our thoughts are with you.
