Complaining about & blaming Keir Starmer for a long-scheduled, still uncertain, six month distant increase in fuel prices literally *hours* after calling for more war in the Middle East is quite the flex. These are not serious people.

This is such a disgrace.

Trump:
“Based on what Jared Kushner told me, I thought Iran would attack us.”

Not his intelligence agencies. His fucking son-in-law.

Shocking that we wouldn't let her come... and claim asylum too. The very smallest gesture against the oppression of women and girls in Afghanistan.

Lindsey’s diplomacy working wonders in UAE.

Post from the Maine Wonk asking whether JD Vance or Donald Trump thanked Ukraine after a tweet noting the U.S. is deploying Ukrainian drone interceptors to fight Iranian drones in the Middle East despite previously cutting off Ukraine’s weapons.

Who has the cards now?

Genuinely can’t think of a worse way to decide on performance…
Badenoch thinks ‘likes’ from bot farms and algorithmically promoted far-right grifters = public opinion.
She’s lost it. And won’t be able to find her way back to reality or credibility from here.

Coffee, straight out of my nose.

Yes. This.

'Operation Epic Fury' sounds like the name you would give a military advance in a low-budget Marvel Comics wannabe B-movie aimed at 13-year old boys who have just discovered the pleasures of wanking into a sock.

That’s a £30 billion black hole in our economy, according to the IFS. And a ‘car crash’ for our care industry & the NHS. Just for starters. On the plus side, Bromsgrove currently has hundreds of union flags flying from lampposts.

"Assemble the Board of Peace - I'm starting a war".

As a professional military strategist, I just wanted to make sure everyone has a full understanding of the American strategy in Iran, thank you for your attention to this matter

😆😂🤣

Oh, I defo am. Enjoyed my seventh birthday in the middle of 'The Time Warrior', in which Sarah-Jane Smith first made an appearance and John Pertwee returned to the middle-ages to battle with Commander Linx, the first appearance of a Sontaran. Those young memories are vivid 😁

Nah. Bits of solid food sure, but anything that will dissolve in water and get through the filter is fine

I think that's a Sontaran...

I am increasingly annoyed by people who let their sentences trail off with 'blah blah blah blah blah'. Because it always means 'I know what I'm saying is probably nonsense, but I'm afraid I've done no research and am just parroting stuff I can't justify'

I genuinely despise this dangerous moron as much as I do Farage

Because the Home Office didn't tell anyone they would need it to enter the UK. Before this change in approach she could have travelled to see her Mum on her Dutch passport, like any other tourist can.

It's a total mess, of the Home Office's making.

Excellent!

This. Very much this.

For those who think it important for the Nation to impose more tariffs, I understand that today's decision will be dis-appointing. All I can offer them is that most major decisions affecting the rights and responsibilities of the American people (including the duty to pay taxes and tariffs) are funneled through the legislative process for a reason. Yes, legislating can be hard and take time. And, yes, it can be tempting to bypass Congress when some pressing problem arises. But the deliberative nature of the legislative process was the whole point of its design. Through that process, the Nation can tap the combined wisdom of the people's elected representatives, not just that of one faction or man. There, deliberation tempers impulse, and compromise hammers disagreements into workable solutions. And because laws must earn such broad support to survive the legislative pro-cess, they tend to endure, allowing ordinary people to plan their lives in ways they cannot when the rules shift from day to day. In all, the legislative process helps ensure each of us has a stake in the laws that govern us and in the Nation's future. For some today, the weight of those virtues is apparent. For others, it may not seem so obvious. But if history is any guide, the tables will turn and the day will come when those disappointed by today's result will appreciate the legislative process for the bulwark of liberty it is.

These words by Supreme Justice Gorsuch should be printed, in full, on tomorrow’s front pages.

If you don't know what a round robin is, I'd suggest it's sport you have an issue with, not just curling.
Personally I think it's a fascinating event - and so do all my 59-year old ex-schoolmates, who have discussed it at length in the last week or two. Full of complexity and extraordinary skill.

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Biden would’ve been instantly impeached in a bipartisan vote if he put his face on the freakin’ Department of Justice building
