Sir Ken McCallum head of MI5 - Russia remains "aggressor number one" and is fighting a hybrid war against the UK that is not being taken seriously enough. This "war" did not start last week. It's been going on for a decade+ and those denying it should be challenged. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
MI5 tackling more state threats than during Cold War, warns intelligence chief
Sir Ken McCallum says Russia, Iran and emerging threats from AI were increasing the risks to Britain.

On the birthday of Margaret Thatcher, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.
The Times from ten years ago this week. They were wrong. In fact Brexit is costing the UK economy roughly £100 billion a year. #ProjectFear
No speech from Nigel Farage expressing disgust and inciting riots - it seems he's as interested in 'protecting women and girls' from white sex abusers as his alleged violent rapist friend Andrew Tate ... meme via Reform Sunderland Watch
Deloitte in Cyprus helped in falsifying documents to hide Roman Abramovich's wealth and evade tax, Leaked documents show transactions backdated and tailored. Assets spirited away to BVI. Big four accounting firms advise UK govts, get public contracts, routinely implicated in scandals.

Backdated paperwork also made the Russian oligarch’s yachts and mansions disappear from accounts, BBC finds.

There's PLENTIFUL evidence that Russia interfered in the EU referendum. Most sensible people on both sides accept that as a fact. If Farage can counter this obvious truth then he should present his case to us all rather than grandstanding and lazily calling Burnham a "liar".
We’ll tell you what’s boring, Farage and the BBC… honking out Reform’s latest anti-asylum seeker bollox, as if it’s workable or wanted, and without any meaningful scrutiny. Yusuf on #r4today like a firehose of fascist idiocy, when this is the ugly truth behind their desperate outburst…

And *still* Trump chunters on about how he’s owed the Nobel Peace Prize. The whole regime just reeks of rottenness. Pure evil. Demented. Repulsive. Unbearable to be an American right now.
For 14yrs, the Tories cratered our economy, added thousands to our cost of living, melted down public services and brexited us into decades of eye-watering expense and lost opportunity. That’s still their plan. With tax breaks for the super rich paid for by welfare cuts. So what TF is this headline?
Suspended sentence for man found to have a collection of more than 114,000 indecent images of children. Tommy Robinson and co are going to be all over this. They'll be SO angry... Just you wait... Any second now... ...
Voters loathed the Tory party when they booted them out in 2024.They really needed to shake off their disgrace with humility and better ideas. They haven’t. They’ve doubled down. More Brexit, more austerity, more anti-immigration ugliness, more tedious arrogance… and no good reason to vote for them.
