It's amazing how few people in the UK realise that the last time the world went in to a massive financial tailspin, albeit one not directly caused by the President of the USA, it was Gordon Brown & the late Alistair Darling who provided the sort of international leadership desperately needed now.
🔴 For *four years* officials refused to release names of all companies linked to Conservative donors and party figures put in the 'VIP' lane for bumper Covid contracts
Now a judge has ordered them to.
Huge win for @jennacorderoy.bsky.social (and DfS)

Just wanted to take a moment to welcome my hubby @bradtakei.bsky.social to Bluesky! I know it’s not a contest but… I think I might have more followers than you.
Holy shit!! Trump just slipped on live TV that he lost the 2020 presidential election.
Trump would HATE it if this goes viral:
‘I’ve lost it. I can’t keep up with what is real and what is not real.’
@mrjamesob.bsky.social reflects on the dizzying pace of change after Donald Trump’s election.
What a front cover...
Great London, great.
Whatever your thoughts and disappointments, thank goodness we have a sensible statesman as our PM.
Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.
How long will you last? I got to 4’17" before being overcome by a profound state of despair.
Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.
Trump fans have to go along with *all* the lies because if they didn't, the really big lie - the white supremacism & racism - would start crumbling. And they love that lie sooo much...
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.
ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.
"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."
In an extraordinary display of public support, heads of state, heads of government, and foreign ministers from all over Europe and Canada are posting in support of Ukraine in response to the Oval Office meeting with Trump, Zelenskyy, and Vance.
There are calls for Lord Eric Pickles to resign from the House of Lords he complained to the Grenfell Inquiry that he was missing important lunches.
Like if he needs to resign.
RT if he needs to be fired.
Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much:
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world.
It's obvious to all of us.
Nearly 200K sign petition to revoke Musk's Canadian citizenship: Thousands of individuals have signed an online petition urging the revocation of tech billionaire Elon Musk's Canadian citizenship over his involvement in the Trump administration, which the petitioners argue undermines Canada's…
I received, and continue to receive, many extremely vicious attacks for standing with the people of Syria and Ukraine against prominent UK and US leftists who recited Putin and Assad's propaganda. Humanitarian principles must always transcend partisan loyalties. I won't be bullied into submission.

"Empathy is not weak or "woke." And, by the way, "woke" just means you give a damn about other people."
I've just signed "Marks & Spencer - stop advertising on GB News" - Will you support the campaign too?
Frankly if M&S keep targeting GB bigots as customers then they don’t need my business.. I wasn’t aware of this until just now.. 🤷🏼♂️
@StopFundingHate
Liz Cheney just wiped the floor with JD Vance 🔥
"Rarely has so much ignorance and ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet."
President Zelenskyy is the democratically elected leader of a sovereign country who is bravely standing against the illegal invasion of Ukraine by a murderous ACTUAL dictator called Vladimir Putin
This is true. @bsky.app is the app of the people.
We may not all agree. We may not even all like each other. But we can engage and disagree and agree with our hate
That makes the platform the future of social media
I would like to see a few British broadcasters read out every word of Trump’s latest ‘statement’ live on air & then remind us of their often lavish statements of support for him & then share some of their supportive words for Ukraine.
And then we can all watch their brains explode…
Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?
“JD Vance Called Me a 'Dummy' for Pointing Out His Administration's Hypocrisy on Free Speech. I Guess the Truth Hurts”
My piece for Zeteo on yesterday’s back and forth with the VP and others on Twitter - and on the threat to imprison American journalists.

Woww up north. Wonderful.
With a bit of help from @revchips.bsky.social, I caught the new metro!
