Trump expects Britain (and other European countries) to blindly follow each of his rash decisions. But Starmer is right not to do so when:
- the UK was not consulted beforehand
- the professed aims constantly change
- there is no exit strategy
- it breaks international law
Nottingham Forest will have had more managers than home league wins this season.

π·πΊ "MEPs of UKIP opposed a resolution in 2008 condemning Putinβs invasion of Georgia. Farage also opposed a resolution in 2011 which criticised the conduct of elections in Russia that were widely regarded as rigged."
Farage has always had a soft touch to Putin.

Horrified by the sickening terrorist attack in Bondi Beach. My prayers are with the families of those tragically killed.
As Jewish communities come together to celebrate Hanukkah, we must stand together against violence and hate. Light will always triumph over darkness.
The media obsession over Farage and his party is shocking considering their numbers in the House of Commons...

A disastrous consequence of a culture reserving its greatest rewards for commentators with the most pungently expressed opinions is how hard it becomes for them to climb down. By rights, *everybody* writing or speaking in the national interest should be horrified & outraged by Trumpβs attacks on us.

Farage just said βI didnβt wear a mask last time and I wonβt wear them this time. This is nonsense.β
