European to my bones and furious that I was deprived of my EU Citizenship. Brexit degraded UK. It was Putin's testbed for using Trump to degrade USA. Brexit is STILL a crime scene. Christian. #RejoinEU. #NAFO. LibDem🔶 (for now!) Substack @ianward30

"a fuming, friendless Trump, so weakened by his own blunders & by plunging approval ratings that he retreats to the gilded fastness of his White House, there to tinker with plans for his ballroom & memorial arch? That is a vision that many governments would cheer" www.economist.com/internationa...

As his presidency flounders, Trump is more dangerous than ever

Forget lame ducks. America’s president will defend his dominance like an ageing silverback gorilla

Wow. A new Govt amendment to the Rep of the People Bill gives the Electoral Commission power to compel *any person* in the country to hand over documents about a political party's finances (There's no requirement to suspect wrongdoing and no court order needed. Criminal offence to refuse)

Secretary Angela Rayner _Gov_129 . Schedule 11, page 188, line 40, at end insert— “(2A) In sub-paragraph (2), in the words before paragraph (a), after “disclosure notice” insert “under this paragraph”. (2B) In sub-paragraph (3), in the words before paragraph (a), at the beginning insert “For the purposes of this paragraph,”. (2C) In sub-paragraph (4), after “is given” insert “under this paragraph”. (2D) After paragraph 1 insert— “Further power to require disclosures about the finances of registered parties etc 1A The Commission may give a disclosure notice under this paragraph to any person, except as mentioned in sub-paragraph (3). (1) (2) For the purposes of this paragraph, a disclosure notice is a notice requiring the person to whom it is given— (a) to produce, for inspection by the Commission or a person authorised by the Commission, any documents which— (i) relate to the income and expenditure of an organisation to which, or an individual to whom, paragraph 1 applies, and (ii) are reasonably required by the Commission for the purposes of carrying out their functions; or (b) to provide the Commission, or a person authorised by the Commission, with any information or explanation which relates to that income and expenditure and is reasonably required by the Commission for those purposes. (3) A disclosure notice under this paragraph may not require an organisation to which, or an individual to whom, paragraph 1 applies to produce documents, or provide information or an explanation, which relates to the organisation’s or individual’s own income and expenditure. (4) A person to whom a disclosure notice is given under this paragraph must comply with it within such reasonable time as is specified in the notice.

I having been mulling over the actions of Trump as a whole and in particular towards Iran. I have created the following, which although we must be patient sums up how he will be remembered. Nothing like his fantasies to be sure. If you like this or it strikes a chord please repost.

According to Nigel Farage, Iceland being in the EU Single Market, having free movement of people and belonging to Schengen is perfectly compatible with national independence. I look forward to him endorsing the same independence for the UK: back in the Single Market, with free movement and Schengen

🔥🇦🇺 A ruling from the Supreme Court of New South Wales highlights an important distinction: opposition to Zionism or criticism of the Israeli government is not automatically antisemitism. Israel is a state, while Jewish people are a global religious and ethnic community.

Trump’s administration sowing doubt in the integrity of US elections stoking expectations he could move to exert greater control over November’s midterm elections and could declare a state of emergency on national security grounds to “protect” elections. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Trump laying groundwork to impose national emergency by sowing election distrust

President’s speech, declassification of documents and heightened claims of noncitizen voting have experts concerned

"We're going to hit back" "We will support these businesses for as long as it takes. In other words, beyond the life of this U.S. administration." Canada plans to outlive MAGA and Trump. No deal until the US traitors are gone. #cdnpoli

Canada has suspended trade talks with the United States and will match US 50% tariffs dollar-for-dollar. “You’re at war when you get attacked. We got attacked — America is trying to break us so they can own us. That will never, ever happen." #cdnpoli
