Not just the NHS. They hold defence contracts too.
Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"
I'm British, living and working in France for the past 24 years, and have no right to vote in the country where I live (which also strikes me as ridiculous).
Instead if swinging dead cats, perhaps Elon would be better looking closer to home at how Tesla benefited from a lucrative cobalt deal with Israeli Glencore in the DRC. www.business-humanrights.org/it/ultime-no...
Incidentally, what was Rudy Guiliani up to in the DRC in 2018 on behalf of Trump? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Just when you thought they couldn't go much lower.
I didn't have Elon Musk attacking my good friend Zaida Catalan on today's bingo card, but here we are. For clarity, Zaida was assassinated while investigating war crimes for the UN, including mass graves and sexual offences against women & children, not because she 'supported open borders'.
We’re looking for volunteers to share their social media feeds for a possible story about how algorithms shape people’s understanding and opinions on the ongoing immigration crackdown.
Don't you think people work and have childcare issues in other countries where voting takes place?
Not only have we let them fill their databases with every possible detail about us, but we've allowed them to fill our skies with their satellites & drones. No wonder they want a digitised financial system. The question is how do we unpick this dystopia?
Meanwhile, nobody is talking about the climate.
Or against America AND Russia...
This is why people from other countries no longer want to visit the US. It's mind-blowing that he has any support left at this point.
Hilarious trolling, courtesy of the French government.
'French response' is the only official account that can legitimately remain on Twitter. And we want one here too so we can have a laugh with it 😁

Will we ever learn?
The UK–France relationship is talked about in boats and borders.
Rarely in families, homes, or people who can no longer live normally between two places they belong. That silence matters.
Yep, just like the word activist. The world is a better place for them.
Except this time it's not limited to one country.

Sunday night bathtime listening to the Top 40, and dripping water all over the floor reaching for the cassette recorder.
It's still heavily Us-oriented though...
No way we could buy anything even vaguely comparable to what we own in France. Nor would we want to. Our lives are here, our friends, families, work, social networks. It was bad enough losing our freedom of movement post-Brexit, especially having family spread across multiple countries.
They're so busy being racist they forget that Brits will be impacted too.
We're British in Europe, in France for over two decades with a grown up daughter in Germany, living with her Italian boyfriend. Families are complex. We've already lost our freedom of movement, although we weren't allowed a vote. Presumably this would also be reciprocated. Bloody awful.
This too shall pass. Writes a girl with similarly grim transits, and few timeout options. You've got this.
The French: A good start. Now do it again tomorrow. And every day until he's gone.
And while you're at it throw in some regular strikes rthat grind the country to a halt
How do we know it was full of drug smugglers? We can't, because there has been no due process. This is a summary execution, totally illegal, and nobody in government has the gumption to call it out as such.
Another reciprocal Brexit bonus for British in EU to look forward to. The short-sightedness of these people is staggering.
Shouldn't other countries be issuing arrest warrants around now?
