The thing I find the most annoying about today's realists, is how they cling on to the idea of Russia being a great power that somehow deserves a sphere of influence. The last 3 years have proven the opposite.

We are still in the American shadow. Macron, Merz, von der Leyen are stepping out of it, but Starmer, Schoof, Duda, and Rutte are still under it.

Two decades together.
With the enlargement of 2004, we became a bigger and stronger political, economic and cultural Union – creating more opportunities for citizens across the EU.
This wasn’t just the birth of a larger Union; it was the birth of a new era.

With the prospect of Reform UK getting millions in donations, I had feared they would spend the money on Cambridge Analytica style disinformation in the form of targets ads on social media. Now I think they're just bribing senior Tories to be shit.

‼️ Zelensky: We all know Putin very well – he is sick warmonger. He began his career with a brutal war against Chechnya and is constantly inciting other wars. He can only be stopped by force, the force of world leaders. We are counting on America and the whole world to stop Putin.

Trust in the EU is at its highest level in 17 years, the latest Eurobarometer shows.

Support for the euro is also at an all-time high: 74% across the EU and 81% in the euro area.

The absolute cheek of the Tories putting this statement out when their current leader admitted an offence which can carry a maximum sentence of five year in prison, and with colleagues who have committed real fraud, resulting in losses of billions to the taxpayer. Absolute cheek of it.

Russia: Ruble lost over 7% of value so far today, down to 113/USD.
The Russian Central Bank has suspended planned purchases of foreign currency and gold equivalent to around $40 million / day.
Instead, purchase of rubles with the Chinese Yuan will be doubled to $80 million / day.

Thousands of those who have signed aren't even living in the UK. In fact the petition has been signed by people based across a whopping 184 countries. Numbers soared after Musk shamelessly shared it

If you're interviewing a Trump apologist in the UK media/politics sphere, don't ask about trade, tariffs or even NATO *until* you've asked about the coup attemt, the sex offending & the felonies. These people claim to care about all the things that Trump denigrates daily. Call them out on it.

One of the most tiresome MAGA propaganda myths is "Trump told Europe to rearm, and they didn't". U.S media did a bad job reporting the truth to Americans which is: Trump told us to rearm in 2016, then told us to only buy American weapons in 2017, and when we refused he told us to stop rearming.

At this rate, it'll be worth almost ZERO by Xmas.
