My reaction to the latest juvenile rankings of the Green Party’s leader, Zac Polanski; who tells us he would develop a relationship with Putin & take UK out of NATO.
Idiot Polanski, all the D’s

Can we focus on Ukraine a little more please?
Against all the odds & Donald Trump Ukrainians are doggedly winning this war, inch by bloody inch!
Ukraine matters more to us in Europe than Iran; let’s get our priorities right.
Ah diddums, have I upset ya?

Truly, truly, truly disgusting.
Keep this Trumpist race baiting out of British politics.
Finally managed to upload Sunday’s chat with The Wire Tap & Chris.
Four years after Russia’s so-called “three-day operation”… how right were we?
How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

No one who is at all concerned with the national security of the United States can possibly support Trump. This is simply a hideous betrayal of the country and its future in exchange for a bribe.
So many heroes, the best of us lost
Hod rest him 💛💙
The defining face of the first day of the full-scale invasion is Ukrainian marine Vitalii Skakun.
He heroically sacrificed his life by blowing up a bridge in Henichesk to slow the advancing Russian columns.
Today marks four years since Russia invaded Ukraine. These are some thoughts (recorded yesterday) on what Ukrainians have done for all of us and what we can learn from them.
💥Four years on, Ukraine is STILL standing strong.
Putin is losing this war badly. Russia is losing men faster than they can recruit, around 40,000 a month.
"If Russia stops fighting, there will be no war; if Ukraine stops fighting, there will be no Ukraine."👇

It’s a morning for the WH to hide the ketchup bottles:
Bad GDP numbers.
Not great inflation numbers.
Tariffs overturned by SCOTUS.

Our (@DefenceBrink) letter to the PM makes front page of today’s @dailymail.co.uk, also covered in @telegraph.co.uk & @thetimes.com.
Happy to have collaborated & added my name to such an auguste list.
Our PM & government must now act!

A wee extract from the night when I sang & danced with the undisputed Queen of Jazz & Blues, the one & only, the great; Mary Coughlan.
Life is made of moments like this!
Thanks again Mary for another epic night @irishculturalcentr.bsky.social👇

The biggest waste of money in the EU was Nigel Farage.
The biggest waste of money in the UK is Nigel Farage.
From “3 days to Kyiv” to censorship and damage control, Russia’s war narrative is collapsing in real time.
A short trailer previews The Soviet Playbook: Have You Tried Turning It Off & On? how propaganda shifts when reality refuses to cooperate.

Great segment this morning James.
To answer your question, how to get people over their complacency about Russia, I’ve been trying to do it for over 4 years & have not found the answer yet.
Except maybe learn to see Russia through Ukrainian eyes; but then I’ve been saying that for almost 10 years!
Russia & European complacency.
Social media regulation.

Get it? See, it's funny 'cuz our President is a pathological liar who rarely, if ever, tells the truth.
For the best analysis and insight into the Trump Whitehouse regime this side of the Rocky Mountains; follow this great guy: @scottlucas.bsky.social
He really is very good; he must be, he’s professor at my Alma Mater where I picked up me Politics and Economics degree all of 41 years ago😎😎👌
Brits haven't woken up to the fact that war could well be coming—and our government isn't being honest about it.
"The British Army is not ready to fight, and if it's not ready to fight, it's not ready to deter."
We need truth and real leadership NOW.

It’s bloody grim
‘Bravery is born out of hardest times’
From the warmth of my London home I’m not brave, I can only imagine:
Friends in Kyiv tell me daily of freezing homes, no electricity & burst pipes.
Diplomat friends tell me of freezing elderly parents back home.
This is Genocide, yet Ukraine will not break!
‘Russia is not winning in Ukraine’
In 2025 Russia has taken just 0.9% of Ukranian land for a total losses estimated at 1,270,000.
In December alone Russia lost over twice as many troops as the USSR lost in 10 years in Afghanistan.
This is the story the world needs to hear👇
