View from the border: the wall dividing the US and Mexico – in pictures The structure, variously known as the border fence or border wall, is not continuous and only covers sections of the almost 2,000-mile boundary between the two countries. It consists of a series of ob...

Just count how many stretches of Trump's BigBeautifulWall only cause a minor swerve for immigrants from the south

Every interviewer should ask Farage about this. Every single one, every single time.

Look my girl is just trying to save the cats I don't understand what's so wrong about her. Steal from the old too rich give to the animals whose habitats they destroy. Feels like justice to me.

My only gripe is that she's blonde.

Idc, in my mind all Catwomans should look like Eartha Kitt.

To all you patriots (and UK authorities)

Is this not political interference of the most egregious and socially divisive kind?

The “enemy from within” is Trump. The “violent extremists” are Trump lackeys who have turned ICE into fascistic shock troops. In response to Trump’s brutal, racist, and unconstitutional campaign of terror the country must mobilize collectively

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

US shutdown enters second week as Senate votes again on funding bill Democrats and Republicans apparently no closer to deal to restart funding as Trump warns of imminent job cuts

There is no reason at all why the government shutdown should result in laying off federal workers - except that Trump will seize this opportunity through vindictiveness. His disdain for the people shows no bounds.

I feel slightly numb and mostly exhausted at the amount of antisemitism posting about antisemitism has triggered on my BlueSky posts

Being Jewish on social media means having to expect it, and I’d almost got desensitised it

Almost

To all the antisemites, I say: f*ck you

Should CinC (POTUS) wear military uniform, as the most senior commander in the US military? Would that mean he should meet Sec Hegseth's new fitness standards?
Pres Trump loves to salute (while hatless and in civvies). He should enjoy a heavily braided CinC's outfit, while running around the track.

Several people fired after clampdown on speech over Charlie Kirk shooting Teachers, firefighters and military personnel among those who lost jobs after posting their opinion on social media

Who is protecting First Amendment rights? Not the Right. How can freedom of speech be protected when it fails the first test? It is when rights are tested that the strength (or weaknesses) of Constitutional protections are shown. The Right destroys 1st Amendment

Trump ‘ready’ to impose sanctions on Russia if Nato nations stop buying its oil In Truth Social post, US president also suggests members consider imposing tariffs of 50% to 100% on China

#Trump knows that won't happen. There are several NATO members who will shuffle their feet, cough and resist the call for fear of ruffling feathers

Reporter: Did Israel tell you in advance?
Trump: No
Reporter: You were caught by surprise?
Trump: I’m never surprised by anything

Trump lies. Israel says he greenlit the operation. WH said Witkoff was “dispatched” to warn Doha. Qatar says warning came as targets were already hit.

These are facts

Boris Johnson under pressure to explain how private office follows funding rules Office is part-funded by public duty costs allowance, which should only be used to support public work of former PMs

The costs allowances for former PMs must be loose change for Johnson. Why does he abuse the rules when he has millions?
It's measure of the man whose narcissism excuses all. Like Trump, he believes everything is his by right.

Angela Rayner admits underpaying stamp duty on £800,000 seaside flat Exclusive: Deputy PM refers herself to ethics adviser as confirmation puts her position under threat

#AngelaRayner has handled complex and challenging family matters properly. This should not affect her political position at all. We need her where she is. She's a highly competent, ethical MP, as the full explanation she has just given shows.

Trump says he will award Rudy Giuliani the Presidential Medal of Freedom Former NYC mayor was sanctioned by courts and disbarred for amplifying false claims about the 2020 election

Silencing the drumbeat again: seeking asylum is legal Hundreds protested in Ashington against so-called "illegal immigrants" - though seeking asylum has been legal since 1951

Say it again, and again, and again. They are not "illegal immigrants".

-seeking asylum is legal and has been since 1951.

This legally trumps all arguments of “but they arrived by illegal means”. That’s just a fact. That’s why you don’t see asylum seekers arrested & charged. Our MSM must do better.

For my sins, I relentlessly push on this in FB groups. It's probably a waste of time, trying to teach the unteachable, but this misinformation needs challenging EVERY time! Here's my 'go to' graphic...

Trump says lawyers are drafting executive order to end mail-in voting Announcement comes days after Putin allegedly told Trump US elections were rigged because of postal ballots

Count the lies!

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump falsely asserts US was “now the only Country in World that uses Mail-In Voting” claiming “All others gave it up because of the MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD ENCOUNTERED.”
34 countries have mail-in voting. Most European countries offer some mail voting. US Courts rejected claims of fraud in '24 elections

A thrilling tour of the new embankments concealing London’s £4.6bn super sewer Built to tackle 18m tonnes of rising excrement, the Tideway project has also generated dramatic new public spaces dotted with giant artworks.

Don't know about swankiest but I do think these should be renamed Yuk-and-Cover rather than the outdated 'Manhole Cover'...

Reform UK councillor suspended from job at Home Office processing asylum claims It is understood an investigation will look at whether Paul Bean of Durham council breached civil service code

Of course, you would give a Reform Councillor the job of processing asylum claims. No worse than asking an arsonist to join the Fire Service.
