Maybe! The fact is the headlines for the interviews he does talks about "leaving NATO". Perhaps he should do more to be clearer if it's leaving folks like me in doubt

Also, they want to leave NATO. Fuck that.

I do think it's worth addressing that the intellectual lodestar of this government is a gibbering idiot.

I don't think words can encapsulate how much I despise Steve Witkoff.

I was actually just considering who to switch energy providers to and now I know it won't be SP.

This is appalling and what's worse you did it on Transgender Day of Remembrance. Every single person involved in this should be ashamed of themselves.

How many older journalists and papers look back at their role whipping up hatred against gay people like me in the 80's and 90's with pride and a sense they did right? Very few. So what do *you*, today's journos and papers, think your prospects are after re-running same campaign against trans folk?

Next year, maybe they'll give the award to Tommy Robinson?

Honestly so disgusted by this.

Looks like I'll have to add two grand to my pre-election poll crowdfunder because I certainly won't be working with this rag again. Absolutely disgraceful, awarding a hate campaign that is out to destroy my community and kill my best friend like this. Shame on you.

scottish political "awards" each year are an excuse for scotland's transphobic media class and their acolytes to give each other encouraging little pats on the back and celebrate their victories over a minority community

I don't use the word lightly, but this is really just evil isn't it. "Your identity makes us uncomfortable so be gone from public spaces." Fuck off.

Yep, why not score a goal from your own half in the 98th minute?

Think tank founded in memory of Jo Cox wants us all to be very willing to go along with policies diametrically opposed to the values Jo Cox expressed in her maiden speech

Someone should ask Starmer and Mahmood whether they think the Kindertransport, for example, should have been a return ticket. Whether Alf Dubs, rather than becoming a Labour MP and now Lord, ought to have been sent back with his family to Czechoslovakia once it was liberated from German rule.

"Thank Heavens Reeves froze the thresholds," says the median voter in 2029 as they walk past the derelict sports centre and down the empty high street to cast their vote.

If you get made a traitor your charity should switch and the money should go towards ppe medpro or saudi aramco or palantir or some otherwise evil company in order to up the stakes of the game

Congratulations to Zarah Sultana for not being the first MP to quit or be expelled from a party that doesn't exist yet, genuinely unexpected outcome

Your Party
@thisisyourparty

*Statement from the Independent Alliance of
MPs*
"Your Party's founding purpose is to stand for the many against the few who hold the wealth and power in our country. Thousands of ordinary people have given their time and money to build a real alternative to endless cuts and endless war.
"A dedicated team of volunteers has been working on a shoestring budget to deliver a founding conference at the end of the month.
Their efforts are heroic, but without funding Your Party's capacity has been severely restricted. Hundreds of thousands of pounds were donated to the party by supporters in good faith, but have since remained beyond its reach. This has been extremely frustrating and disheartening.

"A small portion of these funds was today transferred to Your Party. This is insufficient.
We will continue to pursue the immediate transfer of all the money that was donated by supporters to get a new party off the ground, alongside a resolution to outstanding legal issues.
"Building a democratic party from the ground up was never going to be smooth sailing.
Some of the difficulties we have faced were inevitable, but others were deliberate acts.
"Our focus remains on delivering a historic founding conference, so we can turn outward to offer a popular alternative based on public ownership, wealth taxes and solidarity.
There's no time to lose."

Not Philomena Cunk herself, but actress Diane Morgan will be joining the Disney+ series VisionQuest. But really when you think about it, aren’t they the same person? Aren’t we all just “characters?” And is life just one big Marvel TV show? bit.ly/4oIsSfy

Billie Piper announced as the new BBC Director General but we've got to wait until next Christmas to find out why.
