Her husband’s life was put at risk by the Signal texts.

Marta is one of the best on trade, and these two paragraphs sum up brilliantly the current US situation, from the failed promise of protectionism to the strategic incoherence that prevents response.

Trump never had a peace plan for Ukraine. He had a plan for Ukraine's surrender, with a colonial resource grab. As Zelenskyy rightly refused it, or to cooperate in Trump's TV spectacular, the US has now cut Ukraine off.
That's what blackmail looks like.
That's what the world is up against.

Another strong woman speaks
the TRUTH…

Leaders of the free world stand united in London

The United States is not among them

“What I am clear about is that if there is to be a deal..than that agreement has to be defended because the worst of all outcomes is a temporary pause and then Putin comes again”

Prime Minister Keir Starmer

Brett Baier asks President Zelenskyy on Fox News if he’ll step down after Lindsey Graham said he should:

“With all respect to Lindsey…only Ukrainians vote for their president.”

They are arguing, endlessly, that illegally inciting acts of terror online is ‘free speech’ while silencing dissent, targeting journalists & telling an invaded ally what he is & is not allowed to say during a live television broadcast are all fine.

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more.

It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

Increasing your Water Bills 44% ABOVE inflation in the next 5 years isn't enough for the Water Companies, they have appealed to Ofwat to let them increase them up to 83% ABOVE inflation.

Like if they can get stuffed.
RT if we should nationalise the lot.

Child Poverty % (children living in households below the minimum wage)

Denmark 2.4%
Finland 3.2%
Norway 3.6%
Sweden 3.6%

The UK 32.1%

All four of those countries have child benefits, paid by taxing the rich, that make it almost impossible for a child to be in poverty.

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath

Hyperion Cantos Wiki

Good to know - I will check it out. I'd recommend The Hyperion Cantos series of books by Dan Simmonds. Its fantasy/ sci fi but deeply philosophical and humorous at the same time. Blown away when I read these. hyperioncantos.fandom.com/wiki/Hyperio...

I know its small comfort, but there's a route through apprenticeship levy funding - an employee can do an HE accredited course, 95-100% of fees paid by the levy. Univ of Beds offers law, business, accounting degress (fully professionally accredited) and sub-degreee paralegal qualifications.

I wonder how many adults are getting degree-level qualifications in-work through Apprenticeship Levy funded provision? I know its probably small but an untapped source of funding - SMEs get 95% of costs, bigger firms 100% of costs covered, Uni sorts out all the admin.
