The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer -- But we will remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won! President DONALD J. TRUMP

History lesson.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid until 1917.

Our once great ally didn't come to our aid again until 1941.

Goodnight from Sian Tapper, increasingly irritated that the ghost in her room has nothing better to do than wind her music box at random hours in the night. Goodnight from Andy Bail, suffering as the shrapnel in his leg attempts to align with True Faery North. Goodnight from Hookland.

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

Trump watches the economy collapse like it’s a game. Trump’s friend Putin feeding intel to Iran? Radio silence from Trump’s regime. Crises pile up, but inaction seems to be his strategy. Any other president would act, but Trump prefers chaos as the backdrop.

Wanna see the greatest tweet of all time

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

23 year old Ruben Ray Martinez’s last words? “I’m sorry sir”.

ICE shot him 3 times and killed him.

Renee Good’s last words? “It’s ok I’m not mad”.

Alex Pretti’s last words? “Are you ok?”

These are the people DHS calls domestic terrorists. Threats. Aggressors.

Abolish ICE

Farage is a grifter first & foremost. His loyalty is primarily to money he can get for himself, from anyone irrespective of creed, colour or nationality. He has no real principles.
His loyalties then lie with Trump (his role-model) & Putin, his hero. He has no concern for the U.K. or its people.

Pedro Sánchez’s lone stance against Trump may look risky, but it is cannily pragmatic | Eoghan Gilmartin The Spanish PM’s defiant foreign policy line may seem outspoken. The truth is that he is a sound strategist at home and abroad, says journalist Eoghan Gilmartin

Trump doesn’t want Americans to know they’re in danger because he’ll look bad.

Conservative peer quits after Lords probe into PPE deals It comes after a Lords standards probe into his contacts with ministers and advisers during the pandemic.

The VIP lane was rotten to the core.
A national scandal.

White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

Goodnight from the all-night sausage stall on Ashcourt’s Markham Street, where gossip about the Smiling Man is an engine of shudders. Goodnight from The Half Moon, where Joxy Collins is convinced the stuffed crow perching on its walnut bar just blinked and cawed at him. Goodnight from Hookland.

Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Qatar are discussing withdrawing from contracts with the U.S. and cancelling future investment commitments in the U.S.

Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.

“We never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,” Stiller wrote.

This painting by Whittle brought to mind the Ukrainian woman who, shortly after the 2022 invasion, walked up to a heavily armed Russian soldier urging him to put sunflower seeds in his pockets "so they grow when you die".

You know, I’ve been telling myself off for posting about politics on here because my novel is coming out soon. But the themes of my novel (inter generational trauma, monstrous men, patriarchy, hidden secrets) are playing out right now on a global scale. I can’t unsee these patterns or ignore them

This is how the Trump admin thanks Ukraine for their agreement to help us with Shahed drone interceptors.

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

brianmcginnisnc Brian McGinnis' wife has NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital. He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries. Legal counsel has also been denied access. A Marine veteran. A firefighter. A father of four. And his family still cannot see him.

This is what Badenoch, Farage, the Murdoch press, and Paul Marshall's stable of GB News weirdos want us to get behind, and you know what I'm good, thanks...

Anyone who wants Britain to join the war in Iran needs their head examined They don't know what they want to achieve, why they're doing it or what the consequences might be. They are lost in the void.
