You would think it’s only a matter of time before the Chinese play the β€œdefending ethnic Chinese card”. Deliciously ironic.

A simple solution would be for China to agree to fuel, power and indeed fully resource a large part of eastern Russia…..

Because they covered it with the β€œfree at point of care” which fooled the gullible. Yes it’s free at point of care - as long as your Β£500 a month insurance payments are up to date!

Are you trying to defend him by saying that other politicians are lying shithouses? I thought Reform Limited were different?

Reform's Darren Grimes Accused of Lying After Police Deny Telling Him Not to Hold Council Surgeries for 'Security' Reasons EXCLUSIVE: Local police have rejected the Reform UK deputy council leader's claim that they advised him not to meet his constituents

Reform UK's Darren Grimes tells constituents he can't hold surgeries with them because he's been advised by the police not to do so for "security reasons".

The only problem? Police spokesperson says this is entirely untrue and they gave no such advice

So no British military flags on Armed Forces day. No more showing support to allies if they suffer an Islamic terrorist attack.

Speak softly and carry a big stick. The orange shit gibbon and friends won’t get that but tens of millions of Americans who have grandfathers and great grandfathers buried on Europe’s soil will. It’s not a war with Americans but a war with rich elites from all of our countries - and we are many.

Even madder - old conditions would easily get 2/3 support right now.

Most Europeans know that Americans are not our enemy. Enough of you died on our lands to understand that. This is a fight between the people of all countries and the corrupt elite of all countries. We stand with you.

Could you ask her to offer the UK previous terms as long as a referendum is held within 6 months with a 60% bar to change? It sets no precedent for β€œnew” members only for applicants that have been stupid enough to leave. the 60% bar is achievable and makes an in/out hokey cokey impossible.

Yeah it’s a bizarre one. I don’t think there is much Russian influence in the current Labour Party. Plenty of Israeli bought politicians but I don’t see why Israel would want the UK out on a limb.

Why do think he is doing it?
Makes no sense towards the yanks as he can say I’m just doing what you want - building up our own defence to lessen dependence on you. And it can’t be the extreme brexiteers he is worried about as they will be less than 25% and none will ever vote for him anyway.

Starmers an idiot for not signing up to ReArm. It makes no sense - particularly in a country with a huge arms industry that could be scaled up rapidly delivering massive economic benefit.

β€˜Dubious’ use of the Freedom of Information Act stopping access to files on Prince Andrew, researchers say Biographer says government departments give contradictory refusals to requests and accuses them of β€˜cover up’

What can they be hiding that is worse than what is already in the public domain!

A welcome move but you should have made a stand when the organisation made a man with decades of animal abuse its patron.

The real scandal about Andrew Windsors relationship with a spy is how few ministers or even MPs have commented. Not really surprising as they have all sworn allegiance to Charles β€œand all his heirs and successors” - which includes Andrew of course.

He has missed a golden opportunity. On election he should have immediately formed a committee of industry, academics, economists etc to look into ways to grow the economy. They would certainly have come back with access to the single market and he could be negotiating right now.

I see a lot of people are boycotting certain products that have Bovaer added to cattle feed. I wonder if they bother to check what other additives are in the supply chain.
Likewise the suppliers posting that the don’t use Bovaer - how about posting what additives and medicines are used?

Free portrait of King fails to win over institutions The photograph of Charles wearing the uniform of the Admiral of the Fleet was taken up by all 23 maritime centres but other public bodies found it less desirable

It seems like the British public are apathetic towards the monarchy.

They say correlation is not causation but:
Huw Edwards BBC royal presenter
Gregg Wallace MBE, BBC
Sir Saville - BBC
Stuart Hall OBE, BBC
Rolf Harris CBE, royal artist, BBC
Schofield, Princes Trust ambassador, BBC.

The ones we know about.
