54 and I totally sympathise... 🤔🤣

Or to put it another way - President Putin has said no to the US-led unconditional ceasefire that Ukraine has agreed to

Donald Trump is surely not a Russian asset. But how else to explain his behaviour? It’s difficult to make sense of the turmoil one man has unleashed on the world in five short weeks

Why has Donald Trump embraced Putin? Stupidity? Senility? Blackmail from Russian agents? @arusbridger.bsky.social considers the options...

Forget about the potential environmental damage. Forget about the frankly dubious financial benefits to the local area. The area doesn't have the infrastructure to cope with the initial build, let alone the increase in tourist traffic. I'm local, and it's carnage whenever the weather picks up!

100% this!

"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..."

Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked.

America, just in case you thought Friday went well here’s how the London Times saw it …..

Well played by Starmer, fair play to him!

🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣

It’s hard to overstate how much America’s global standing has collapsed in just six weeks—but these two photos say it all. Humiliating.

Absolutely @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Russia's response to Trump's tantrum says it all really:

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

That's beautiful guys! Well done Sophie 🙂

100%

Sometimes you need to consider the previously unthinkable...

Fantastic work from Macron!

Topical....

Absolutely appalling!

🤣

🤣

Well that's a bit of a oversight to say the least... 🙄

“When Labour negotiates our country loses” says Kemi Badenoch at #PMQs

Imagine the shock when she finds out the last Tory Government negotiated the first deal in history which involved walling the country off from a trading block made up of its nearest neighbours

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days.

The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years.

‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades.

So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Yep... 🙄

Robinson: Why did Starmer insult Badenoch?
Nandy: Because Badenoch-
Robinson: LEAVE BADENOCH OUT OF THIS.
Nandy: Wut?

Good on Nandy for standing firm. ~AA #r4today
