Fun fact: no Trump fought in any of the major wars of the 20th or 21st century.

That must be some kind of record.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD…

Can we STOP with this ‘special relationship’ BS

And also…can we wake up to the treachery of our right wing press?!

Both our goals.

The first lesson of war is ‘know your enemy’ – and Britain’s enemy now is Donald Trump | Simon Tisdall As the Iran disaster escalates, the US president should be seen as an enemy whose actions threaten the lawful, democratic way of life everywhere, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdal...

"It’s long been obvious Trump is no friend to Britain. But this latest act of lethal hubris, of which the UK received no advance warning, shows he and his administration must now be considered an enemy."

I really hope Perri, James, Willy and Ao absolutely rip it up, as they will be on the outs until the end of the season. #lufc

... In exactly the same words

So, Johnson, Farage, Badenoch, the Telegraph… howl about the UK being “an irrelevance on the world stage”.
Remind me again who decided to isolate us with a strategically and economically idiotic Brexit, relying on a trade deal with the US to save us from exactly the kind of weakness they now bemoan.

These soldiers have lost their lives because of the Epstein files.

Safe trip back Erik. Always good to see you on your travels.

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

Billionaire brothers who backed Tories give Reform £100k Oliver Wright Extracts Britain's second-richest family have begun giving money to Reform UK after years of supporting the Conservatives. A company linked to the property tycoons David and Simon Reuben donated £100,000 to Nigel Farage's party the first time the brothers have given to any party other than the Tories. Reform has also received £3 million from Christopher Harborne, 63, an entrepreneur who now lives in Thai-land, adding to the ty million he gave in August. At the time, that was the biggest single donation to a UK political party by a living donor. In the last quarter of last year, Reform received more than £5.4 million in do-nations, the Conservatives were given £2.4 million and Labour received £1.9 million. The Reuben brothers - David, 87, and Simon, 84, who own property including Millbank Tower and Admiralty Arch in London — have donated almost El million to the Conservative Party since 2008. They also supported Boris Johnson after he left No 10, giving him office space worth £85,000. Their family wealth was put at £26.87 billion in The Sunday Times Rich List last year. Reform UK has its headquarters in Millbank Tower, but it is not known whether the brothers donation linked to reduced rent payments. Other Reform donors include David John Grainger, the co-founder of a biotech firm, and Gary Dutton, a double glazing entrepreneur, who both gave the party £250,000. Reform also received £100,000 from Isabel Goldsmith, sister of the former Tory minister Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park. Her father, Sir James Gold-smith, was seen as the godfather of British Euroscepticism. For the second quarter in a row Lord Bamford, the chairman of JCB, gave £200,000 each to the Conservatives and Reform. At the time of his first do-nation, the company said he was "sup-portive of pro-business political parties that create the conditions for these businesses to grow and prosper".

More billionaire cash bankrolling Reform.
JCB’s chairman, Bamford, said he was “supportive of pro-business political parties that create conditions for these businesses to grow and prosper."

Reform wants to repeal the Equality Act.
Prosperity for them means loss of rights and pay for us.

Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

The 2025/26 Premier League season in an image 😭

Didn’t Lowe post something to the effect of being called a racist doesn’t matter.

Now you told me this delightful chapter in bonkers Britain, I actually despise her more than the “patriots”.

Exactly, she picked her side, now she has to suffer the consequences.

Every time Trump slags off Starmer, Khan and Britain and Farage agrees with him, Reform drop in the polls.
Lovely to see.

He’s played 263 minutes in 10 days, he’s looking jaded to me. Also, we have options in midfield.

Cut out and keep Leeds United Copium Bingo card! For all your friends and family.

I’d go back 3 and rest Stach, maybe put Gabi in his place.

I knew when I saw the team what would happen. Even if we had won that game, he’s going to play his faves and only give the rest of the squad 10 minutes here and there. How can he think playing he same 11 3 games in a row, against different opposition in 10 days is a good idea is peak Farke.

She’s not in the Epstein files, so no.

Sorry, it’s so frustrating though…

He will play the same team, he may drop one player, like a Gruev for Longstaff, but there won’t be wholesale changes. Farke’s limitations were for all to see last night.

Hahahaha.

This is the biggest toddler meltdown ever.

"Why did we lose? Muslims, Wokes, Gays, Scroungers, Wind Turbines, Plumbers..."
