I’m surprised Kemi Badenoch is so opposed to the early prisoner release scheme. It’s an excellent source of Tory candidates.
On the morning after Biden’s victory in 2020 I posted that the thing I was most pleased about was that I would no longer have to see Tяump’s ugly smug mug all over my twitter timeline. Then stupid Americans brought him back. And now in my Bluesky timeline, his ugly smug mug is everywhere 😡

Jenrick jumps at another opportunity to make a fool of himself. And Reform sinks further into unserious, unprincipled unelectable territory. A corrupt clownshow, desperate to peddle anger rather than hope. @mrjohncrace.bsky.social sighs deeply at their inanity. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
For years, Telegraph columnists told us climate breakdown is a hoax. Now they say: it's real, but it's too late to do anything about it, so let the bodies pile high (again). Just one long list of excuses not to reduce fossil fuel use. Such newspapers bear as much responsibility as the oil firms.
wtf will historians make of this period of American history.

Said this before, will again. Badenoch is the most dangerous figure in British politics. She's not as extreme as Farage or Lowe, but her impact is more pernicious. She actively prevents the British centre-right from adopting moderate positions, and thereby facilitates the radicalisation process.
This clown doesn’t even possess the intelligence to know when to just stay quiet. How’s your last 10 year plan going, you fucking muppet.
So the country responsible for biggest terrorist attack on US soil, the country that brought down the Two Towers, has been given permission by the countries biggest ever traitor to have nukes. WTF is wrong with you America.. seriously WTF? Do you need Europe to invade and restore democracy?
It’s only a matter of time before poorly trained ICE officers, who are forced to meet unreasonable, quotas for rounding up migrants, shoot and kill American citizens. Oh wait….

HEGSETH: We had US boats that surrendered to Iranian ships during the Biden administration-- REED: Listen -- we're talking about the war you started. Not a situation in which oil was flowing freely, we weren't losing personnel. So your fallback to Biden is just a very very obvious excuse
Can't get numb to this: The United States is stuck in a war it started, cannot end, and may further escalate to no avail, having dismantled its diplomatic apparatus, depleted its military stockpile, and destroyed its credibility. A historic strategic mistake harming millions in many different ways.
It's fascinating to watch commentators who sat completely silently for a decade as the Conservative Government changed its leader four times in a row mid-term, now suddenly discover such a keen interest in the concepts of 'mandates' and 'legitimacy'
We prepaid with the Iran hostage crisis, 9/11 flight safety, Afghanistan, Katrina rebuild, +++
Private Isabella Gonzales, 19, of Carrollton, Texas was killed on July 17, 2026 during Trump’s unauthorized war against Iran
How tragic that this beautiful young woman’s life was wasted over a senseless, illegal war. Trump has her blood and the blood of others on his hands. He lied to the country about not being a war potus. He’s vile. And he truly doesn’t care.
Sending my prayers and condolences to the families of the servicemembers killed in Jordan. Trump’s ineptitude with Iran continues to put American soldiers at risk unnecessarily, and the death toll is rising. This didn’t have to happen – it was an avoidable and awful mistake.
What’s now incredible is that (in UK online news outlets anyway) these attacks would rightly lead all news coverage. But now they’re falling down the news running order to 4th or 5th place. Even the oil markets seem to have ‘priced in’ these attacks. Tяump is bogged down and has no idea how to..
Lee West@whodat35.bsky.social · 3w agoIran says it’s suspending ceasefire commitments with US after a week of intensified strikes There’s no sign that renewed fighting will end soon.

I'm never going to get over the fact that the president of the United States paid a woman more than $5 million after a jury found him liable for raping her. And he's still president. And people still support him. Never. Get. Over. It.
Irony on steroids
PEIPolitical 🇨🇦@peipolitical.bsky.social · 3w agoMiller: "It's not a coincidence that when you look at these violent Antifa demonstrations not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person. Not one looks normal. They're all deformed in some way in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerism." #cdnpoli
Bombs falling, the ceasefire in pieces, and "attacks" his own government can't confirm. This is what winging it looks like: Trump making Middle East policy up by the hour, no plan, no clue where it ends. Hey, MAGA...this is your "Master" Chess player. He can't even win at Tic Tac Toe
Farage is playing the Tяump card of everyone’s attacking me because I shake up the establishment blah blah blah. The fact is the media were less bothered about his personal finances and shady business deals when he just an annoyance. But he has eyes on No 10, so of course the scrutiny gets serious
