Just heartbreaking, in Europe in the twenty-first century πŸ’” Russia is now synonymous with war crimes and cowardice.

There’s nothing conservative about the Conservatives these days. Likewise, Reform doesn’t want to reform anything. Did Farage want to reform the EU from the inside? Does he want to reform the ECHR? Does he want to preserve the NHS, the BBC? They don’t know how to build things or how to improve them.

The #BBC is incredible, admired and respected around the world. Just because Nigel Farage tells you it needs to be defunded doesn’t mean he’s right. I mean, when he told you things would improve if we left the EU did you believe him then? When he says the NHS should be privatised do you believe him?

They blocked me before I left Twitter but if they hadn’t and I hadn’t then I couldn’t let this one go.

The UK’s national debt now stands at Β£2.9trillion.

Equivalent to 95% of GDP.

So instead of talking about the β€˜politics of breaking manifesto promises’ let’s talk about the 14 years of Tory economic & fiscal mismanagement that got us to point where we spend Β£110 billion a year on interest payment.

Irresponsible and undermines Ukraine.

The Green Party also has its roots in the peace movement and pacifism, and in the past could be accused of naivety. Tom, how would you characterise the journey it’s been on and where it is now?

What proportion of the 2024 Labour vote (37% share) would you classify as the β€˜progressive base’ that he needs to pander to?

Sorry Americans. This doesn’t all stop when Trump goes away. The damage is designed to be systemic.

Wealthy, happy citizens. World class infrastructure. Great art, cultural and sporting achievements. Technology and scientific innovation. Inspirational leadership and global respect. What the world wanted for Russia.

Putin had a different vision.

This is Nigel Farage. Gutting the EU, withdrawing from the ECHR, defunding the BBC, attacking the NHS. No vision, just hatred and blame.

I hope you’re right, Tom. But if the election was tomorrow then the left just handed victory on a plate to Farage and delivered an authoritarian Government.

I’m afraid we don’t need the passage of time to draw that conclusion. The world is watching America self-harm in real time and only its enemies are enjoying it.

Amazing how so few people, so obviously flawed, can destroy something so enduring, so incredible, and do it so quickly.

At this point you’re adding to the anti-Starmer cacophony and paving the way for Reform. It’s very sad but this will appeal more to the Starmer haters than to those seeking justice.

Farage changes his mind on a Norway style Brexit deal

Starmer should pursue the Norway style deal that Farage campaigned on, then everyone will be happy.

Jonathan Pryce playing Bond villain Elliot Carver, a media baron agitating for conflict and chaos. At the time it seemed preposterous.

β€œWe’re gonna try and get some of that territory back”.
Poor Ukraine, hoping this man will negotiate a good outcome that recognises international law, sovereign borders, seeks reparations for devastating destruction and justice for countless war crimes. Trump will turn on Zelensky yet again.

If Starmer could do one thing to improve the lives of people in the UK it would be to reform the media. Elevate responsible journalism and restore the value of facts and truth in public life. The media is creating chaos, anger, hatred, confusion and division in our society.
