The only remaining interest in this count is whether Gavin polls more than Humphreys. What a result that would be (not!😎) for Bomber Harris and his band of merry blue-shirts in @FineGael #Election2025


For the third time this month, am waiting over 30 minutes for @VirginMediaIE to answer the phone to discuss being overcharged (despite being promised here on X that the bill would be corrected) Persistent overcharging and time wasting are grounds for cancellation. 🤔


Trump has stopped them firing guns at one another. Great. Now he has to get them to live together; something no one has ever managed. If he succeeds, he will deserve at least a #Nobel #Gaza #Israel #gazagenocide

44 days of the total Israeli siege on Gaza. Not a piece of bread, a glass of water , or a pill of medicine was allowed to reach Gaza. Gaza is Starving. Stop the #Genocide.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies. In Denmark: - Health care and college are free.   - The starting wage is $22/hr. - Paid parental leave is 1 year. - Paid vacation is 6 weeks.   - All workers get pensions.

There no chance Ukraine will sign this insane and offensive minerals deal. This is just a way for Trump to blame the breakdown of negotiations on Zelensky instead of Putin and walk away from Ukraine

The US proposal on a mineral & energy agreement with Ukraine appears sheer extortion: 1. No security support; 2. US claims $100bn in prior contribution through its grants to Ukraine. 3. US majority on board. = colonial agreement. Ukraine must say no. ft.com/content/896da2…

The way in which headlines report this are such a clear example of how the media manipulates public understanding of the Middle East. Hezbollah — wild, irrational, violent, incomprehensibly risking war — Israel, defensive, under siege. This rhetoric has helped enable genocide.


Denis Mortell reposted

Israel never stopped bombing Lebanon — even after the so-called “ceasefire.” But of course Western media frames it as : “Hezbollah fires rockets, risking ceasefire collapse.” The rule is simple: Israel bombs, its defense. Others respond, it’s escalation. You cease. We fire.

Ukraine winning doesn’t mean invading Moscow. It means raising the political, military, and economic costs for Putin to realize that it is no longer in his personal interest to stay. Go after his cronies, tankers, banks, trading partners. Fight to win, not to draw. Slava Ukraini.

In this upside-down world, Ukraine’s allies have been more worried about Russia losing than Russia winning. Russia’s corrupt and unmotivated military would not last against a wave of military support for the very motivated & competent Ukrainians. It’s also the only road to peace.

A core point we’ve been trying to make for years is that "let Ukraine win" hasn’t been tried yet. From Obama’s naive peace-mongering to Biden & Europe's love of the status quo to Trump’s open embrace of Russia's goals, Ukraine winning simply hasn’t been given a chance.

NSA Waltz today said Biden's strategy was "as long as it takes, as much as it takes," but in fact we only supplied about $15 billion/year worth of arms while willfully sabotaging Ukraine from liberating land occupied by Russia. Watch for examples ⬇️ Just arm Ukraine, they'll win.

Unelected oligarch commissar Musk takes a break from posting fake news, fascist memes, and attacking Ukraine with old Kremlin talking points to slander a US Senator and veteran. He really is a renaissance man!

Russia keeps saying it won’t accept peacekeeping forces. It won’t accept security guarantees. It won’t accept Ukraine in NATO. What will Russia accept except domination of Ukraine?

"British troops will be a direct target for our missiles. You will get coffins in return." Evgeny Popov, MP in Vladimir Putin's United Russia Party and Russian TV presenter, tells @faisalislam that it would be "unacceptable" to Russia if Britain sends peacekeeping troops to…



Just learned of @bbc decision to remove @BBCSounds from those of us living outside the UK. We will be left with @BBCRadio4 & @bbcworldservice Disastrous decision for a whole host of reasons, not least soft-power and cultural. Shame. #radio #culture #bbc3
