Whatever the British decide to do, there'll be no thanks from TΡump. On numerous occasions he's been disrespectful beyond belief.
We need to forge closer links with Europe - TΡump is a traitor.
That's funny, I could have sworn he said something about not needing Royal Navy vessels because the war was already won.
You broke it Don, you fix it.
It's about stopping Reform, that's the priority. Under normal circumstances Green wouldn't figure.
As it was here:
The tactical vote in the Gorton and Denton by-election on 26th February 2026 is Green Party - Hannah Spencer. Upcoming May 2026 election advice can be found at StopReformUK.vote.
#Farage is saying:
"Please note: we are only interested in taking over financially successful, affluent councils.
If your area has any actual problems that might need solving, we ain't interested".
Yours Sincerely, the Man of the People xx

Reeves: Brexit has not been good β we should align more with the EU. The Times, 13 March.
The damage to our economy, our lives, and our country over the past decade speaks for itself, and it's positive to hear Government ministers admitting that leaving the EU was a mistake. However, we must look to the future rather than the past; aligning isn't enough.
TΡump failed, to be a decent human being and President, full stop.
Sick Trump appears to think a victory parade is in order!
Will he call it 'Trump's Golden War Victory', or something equally sick?
Meanwhile, reputable news outlets are reminding us that the finish line is still a ways off, and there are plenty of stumbling blocks along the route.

You talk a lot of sense, Ed. On this, defence & other things.
Unfortunately, people haven't forgotten the Libdems propped up the Tories (who decimated defence; public sector and social responsibility spending!)
Nick Clegg is still popping up on news reports still spouting 'I'm sorry' rubbish.
βElon Muskβs Tesla given go-ahead to supply electricity in Great Britain.β A subheading underneath says: βOfgem licence means firm can replicate Texas setup of powering homes, businesses and EVs.β
Ed Miliband must step in and bar Tesla from holding an energy licence.
Elon Musk is a threat to our national security and clearly not a fit person to operate in our energy industry.
We canβt have the lights go out because heβs having a strop on X.
As the White House appears to turn the war on Iran into some kind of sporting win, our US Editor Anushka Asthana examines whether we are now seeing the real Trump, unleashed.

Dave Allen died on 10th March 2005, aged just 68. Comedian, satirist, actor, one of the funniest men of all time. His TV shows were incredibly funny. Saw him live once. Loved by millions; We all miss the great man. R.I.P. Dave Allen. πππππ #DaveAllen
Reform are just another bunch of Tories, clearly.
Tories were quick to shout loudly when petrol prices increased under Gordon Brown (which was out of Govmt control).
They even insidiously put out a rallying call to fake lorry drivers to protest. A tactic they've recently revisited with anyone who can drive a tractor and proclaim to be a farmer!
Just suppose this was a Tory plan. Or imagine that Margaret Thatcher had come up with the notion at the time of the miner's strike.
But it's now a *Labour* government that proposes to abolish an 800 year old human right.
We mustn't sleepwalk into this...

Scrapping jury trials is an affront to the very foundations of our democracy.
From the moment this government was elected, it has come after the civil liberties we all hold dear.
This is yet another outrageous assault on our fundamental freedoms. I will be voting against it.
...and can't believe I still have this:
Seen him at The Leeds Folk Festival 1983 - fantastic!

Europe needs homegrown, low-carbon energy sources.
Nuclear & renewables together have a key role to play.
Nuclear energy is available around the clock, providing electricity all year.
Europe has been a pioneer in nuclear technology.
And can lead again

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. Itβs the root of all evil in Washington.
"Jews don't belong in American society."
Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.
But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.
Good, they shouldn't be loaned to ungrateful, and disrespectful, Trump in his efforts to stay out of the Epstein searchlight anyway.
Yes, all very good. Now, sort out existing shared-equity govmt-backed flat leaseholders who were miss-sold. Govmt were supposed to be overseers.
Freeholder (housing associations) have veto rights, not explained at point of sale.
Labour should allow a option for leaseholderd, a buyback.
Good. Now sort out leasehold reform so leaseholders are not being fleeced by freeholders/management companies #leaseholdreform #leasehold #freehold #freeholders #angelarayner
At this point, you have to be delusional to think Trump is gonna leave office willingly. Heβs drunk on power. Heβs basically immune from criminal prosecution. He already got away with one insurrection. Heβs using the military in brazen & illegal ways.
Itβs time to face reality.
This is an absolutely huge jump in oil prices.
It's also why Europe needs to get off fossil fuels asap (beyond climate change impact). We can't be beholden to this.
