It seems very likely that the US has decided to facilitate Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians to try to force Ukraine to surrender. Betrayal. And if they can do that to Ukraine, they can do it to any ally. We should take note.

A clear invitation from Germany. Johann Wadephul’s message is that a future inside the EU is open to Britain, if we choose it. We should seize that opportunity and build support for joining. #RejoinEU #JoinEU #Breturn

Kemi Badenoch spent most of PMQs pouring doubt on Andy Burnham's claims about Russian interference in our democracy, yet her spokesman can't tell me whether she has yet read the Russia report, which was published some six years ago during her own time in Government

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia
• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.

I have just read that the Conservatives have announced a new policy to abolish the Future Homes Standard, which supports the installation of solar panels on new homes in England. This is ridiculous as homes should be built to the best and latest Eco standards

The UK now needs to introduce political spending limits across a parliament, not just for election campaign years. Otherwise, its election spending rules could fall over. Current rules: parties have a limit (about £34m) for 12 months before an election - but no limits outside the 12 month period.

Banning UK trade with illegal Israeli settlements is long overdue
It would be a natural extension of current UK positions, and parliament’s cross-party Foreign Affairs Committee has recommended a formal ban for over a year.
