Turns out the self-styled ‘anti-woke’, Trump- excusing, free speech patriots don’t actually care about:
a) free speech
b) the rule of law
c) the Constitution
d) being hypocritical weapons grade dicks
Free speech latest.
Can’t even make their own MAGAhats
Poor old Trump. Truss could have told him. Those markets so woke.
The EU should completely ban X. It is not a social media platform but an mechanism to bring down democracies.

📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today.
Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.
Meanwhile the House of Commons Grifter in Chief Nigel Farage is up to his usual money grabbing tricks

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, wearing a navy blue pinstriped blazer, a white shirt and a cross necklace, speaks during a press briefing at the White House as reporters raise their hands. Text reads: "White House Moves to Pick the Pool Reporters Who Cover Trump." Eric Lee/The New York Times
Peter Baker reported from Moscow in the early days of President Vladimir Putin’s reign. "This reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access," he wrote of the White House's plan to handpick reporters. nyti.ms/41uUaN0
Reality check.
Thank you, Financial Times.
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…
Over 4,000 people have now supported @goodlawproject.bsky.social's email action urging Sky to stop propping up GB News - can you help them get to 5,000? action.goodlawproject.org/sky-stop-fun...
But free speech no??? Surely not
European leaders meeting in Paris for emergency talks called for higher spending to ramp up the continent's defense capabilities but remained split on the idea of deploying peacekeepers to Ukraine to back up any peace deal reut.rs/41iqhQ4
There’s free speech, and then there’s lying, propaganda machines. The government needs to address corrupt, overseas-owned media urgently if we are to have any chance of a fair democracy going forwards.
The Trump administration said Friday it would continue to block Associated Press journalists from places like the Oval Office and Air Force One because the wire service was using the name Gulf of Mexico.
It costs money for GB News to pump hate into Britain's homes. Much of that money comes from Sky, which also makes much play of being a force for good. We've made it so easy for you to write and politely ask Sky's Chief Executive to stop funding hate. action.goodlawproject.org/sky-stop-fun...
There are now few pleasant ways out of this.
American politicians need to find one of those ways.
Closer EU alignment would boost growth, strengthen our hand against an unpredictable US and set a trap for Farage and Badenoch

Cathy Newman, "President Macron is calling an emergency summit"
General Wesley Clark, "You need to meet. Re-adjust budget on a war time sense of urgency.. We know Putin is preparing to continue the war"
Cathy Newman, "And potentially, a wider war in Europe?""
General Wesley Clark, "Yes"
Still internalising the Vance Munich speech. A sitting Vice President goes to Europe, barely says a word about the despotic murderous regime which has invaded its neighbour, and instead lectures his allies about freedom of speech. It’d be funny if it weren’t so serious.

I've written a news story about the worrying slow-down in Natural England designating SSSIs. NE is full of brilliant people, working so hard for nature. But it appears almost impossible at moment for them to designate sites under immediate threat of development. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
