The cognitive dissonance coming from the US right now is mind blowing.

You can be arrested for beaming a picture of a criminal onto a castle -- but it's okay to give that criminal dinner in that castle.

The chilling irony of this speech while at the same time posting his glee at getting a critical voice silenced should not be lost on anyone. Doublethink is alive any well in the UK and USA. x.com/whitehouse/sta…

"Are you scared yet?" Did you know the US Justice Department published a study that found 'far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left extremists.' They've just deleted it.

I read the news today Oh boy

Unless this is on welfare grounds (questionable given that horses like Poniros had flat experience) then it seems like an own goal to limit the number of eligible horses when field sizes for novice contests at the Festival are already under serious pressure.

So many problems with this. Apart from the fact that it’s economically illiterate, it’s also morally repugnant. Reform showing their true colours. It was never about illegal immigrants, it’s racism pure and simple. Caused by Brexit in the first place, now Farage is doubling down.

Even by Trump’s standards, this rambling reaches a new level of incoherence. So, thousands of people are dying because of the heat, but global warming is a hoax?!

Use the “tremendous asset” that will only benefit the global commercial interests of the powerful fossil fuel lobby that funds Trump - and will do nothing to make the UK more energy self sufficient or bring down household bills.

Farage not only already backtracking on his flagship ILR policy, but making it clear how he views immigrants. Ukrainians, Hong Kongers, fine. But those from Afghanistan are apparently “in a different category”. Really, Nigel? Why would that be…? 🤔

Good to see the BBC dismantling Trump’s deranged MAGA populist rant at the UN, but it does highlight how ill judged that £15m state visit was & the futility of Starmer’s sycophantic charm offensive. Bullies only respond to strength yet our government has been cowed, meek & timid.
