So Trump's now reached the level where where he's using trade as a weapon to enable the Netanyahu regime to continue with its pogrom against the Palestinians. Every time you think Trump's reached his nadir, he finds a new low. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c2lk…

So why isn't Reform UK all over the scandalous cash-for-access 'buy a private meeting with a senior Labour figure' for £9,500? Because you can buy breakfast with Nigel Farage for £25,000.

No doubt this is what man-made climate change-denying Dame Andrea Jenkyns DBE 🇬🇧 would like to see happen here. All the Reform types say their anti-migrant protest is about protecting children but that doesn't extend to passing on a habitable planet. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

A pleasing departure - normally funding for Newark is done on a quid-pro-quo basis with Jake Berry, Tory MP for Rossendale and Darwen. You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

'When the EU got unhelpful' So, what do you mean by that? Do you mean that after we so stupidly left it, the EU applied the same rules that they apply to non-EU countries? It's that level of mindless exceptionalism that got us to this shitshow in the first place.

BREAKING: in response to the assassination of Aljazeera's journalists, the world's journalists have today refused to report anything that Israel says. Amazing.

All 12 freeports, 74 SEZs, and 200 AI Growth Zones were rubber-stamped initially under primary legislation, but secondary legislation was quickly implemented meaning the policy was not debated in Parliament, the public were cut out of the decision/notification process, and the

Tesco makes nearly £4bn profit. Nearly 50% of its workforce are on Universal Credit, receiving about £600m a year. Why isn't Tesco paying?

This is, without exaggerating, one of the most extraordinary things a US Treasury Secretary ever said. It should be mandatory viewing for all citizens of US "allies", Europeans first and foremost. What Bessent is saying is that the US will now treat US allies' wealth as an
