This moment from Feb 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him instead.

“So damaged is the department’s reputation for truth-telling at this point, one judge noted despairingly, that ‘the court is left with little confidence’ that government lawyers ‘can be trusted to tell the truth about anything.’ ”

Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict
So now Trump and Netanyahu's war is funding Putin's war of aggression on Ukraine.
Is this a result of the Trump regime's gross strategic incompetence? Or was it part of the Witkoff/ Kushner plan all along.
Both are entirely plausible.

PFAS pollution in a drinking water source near the old Denham Film Studio, so high the source had to be taken out of use.
That's a water source that was providing 20 million litres a day to London, a city where water is already becoming scarce.

And there you have it. I had no idea until Owen Jones’ court case that Raffi Berg is the Middle East editor of the BBC News website. This explains the unmitigated bias in the BBC’s coverage of the Gaza genocide. Appalling that Berg remains in this editorial position.

Nigel Farage breaks with his Welsh leader over insurance system for the NHS
Reform UK’s Welsh leader Dan Thomas told POLITICO he would rule out moving to an insurance-based system after Nigel Farage said it would be a “national decision ahead of a general elect…
What a spectacle of incoherence.
Reform’s Welsh leader promises not to go down the NHS/insurance route…while Farage keeps that option open for the rest of us. Probably because he’s already committed to selling us out.
Corruption and betrayal nailed on with this lot.

A new report shows hitting our climate targets by 2050 costs less than one oil shock costs the UK.
We need a rapid transition to clean energy to shield people & the economy from price spikes every time oil prices jump.
Some commentators still can’t connect those dots…

Elon Musk’s Tesla given go-ahead to supply electricity in Great Britain
Ofgem licence means firm can replicate Texas setup of powering homes, businesses and EVs
A prime example of how little say we have on our ‘elected dictatorship’ and how much we can come to depend on foreign companies who may not have our best interests at heart. Take Palantir as another example.

"The first 2 days of this war cost $5.6 billion. I seem to remember a president coming into office on the pretext he would focus on America First. And yet he's cut healthcare, cut food assistance, sent the cost of everything higher, but we have plenty of money for war."
