Strangest part is how long it's taken for these calls to gather pace; surprised there weren't more after Elon Musk's incendiary posts during summer '24 anti-migrant riots

Commendable but maybe no longer posting on his platform would be good start for Ed Davey...

Big surprise? Trump's threatened tariffs on Russia clearly not coming tomorrow despite his artificial deadline set 10 days ago... & Moscow will likely continue to bomb Ukraine unrelentingly

'To date, regulators have taken a heavy-handed approach' -- X on UK Online Safety Act.

Yeah, totally, social media's been so over-regulated these past years πŸ€”

Club World Cup halftime show perfectly encapsulates whole tournament ... tacky as hell. Commercialisation of football on steroids. Can we have our game back please? #cwcf

As usual, I think Brian is right about Brazil. Its economy isn’t very reliant on exports to the US, its judiciary operates quite independently of politics and Lula will be eager to stand up to a foreign bully. Brazil already trades more with China than with the US; tariffs deepen that relationship.

Quietly damning line from @thetimes.com : β€œTrump did not say in his post that the White House had demanded constraint, or that he had tried to dissuade Putin from taking action. There is no indication that Trump has spoken to his Ukrainian counterpart, President Zelensky.”

Really wouldn't be surprised if #NottinghamForest #NFFC bottle it on Sunday... if getting that worked up about #GaryNeville, sounds like distracted & emotion of it all getting too much for them #EPL #PremierLeague

Remember when high-on-hubris Jim Ratcliffe insisted every aspect of his #MUFC operation wud be "best-in-class"? Has statement ever collided with reality more brutally? Wud love if we could get our club back from bizmen whose inept decisions end up costing millions more than salaries of fired staff 😑

Has there been a worse 20 mins of Premier League football than the end of Chelsea v Man Utd? Truly abysmal from both teams #chemun

The FPA is dismayed by Sir Keir Starmer's press accreditation policy for the EU-UK Summit of Monday 19th May. The vast majority of EU news outlets have been denied access. We have written to @10DowningStreet to urge him to reconsider.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.
