Don't you reckon if only some of these women had tried to siphon some red diesel near Greenham Common in the Eighties, we could have saved a lot of bother over cruise missiles?

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.

James Cleverly says London housing is unaffordable and attacks Khan for not building enough homes. This from a man who voted against requiring rented homes to be fit for human habitation while earning rental income himself. Some record to run on. buff.ly/WvwZx41

If Palestinians had targeted and blown up a synagogue in Israel it would be one of the lead stories on every UK news channel. But Israel targeting & blowing up a mosque in Gaza? It doesn't get a mention.

Tom Homan's Gestapo was hoping to deport the 3 witnesses to Houston contractor Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's murder by ICE, pretty obviously to thwart local investigators. A judge has now put a stop to that bullshit.

Burnham says the 🇬🇧 UK needs to "do better" on 🇵🇸 Palestine and Gaza. But complicity in 🇮🇱 Israel’s genocide is deeply entrenched in Westminster. It requires radical change – something which Burnham is not offering. Unlike Mamdani 👇

Just caught up with @thetrawl.bsky.social podcast with Anthony Scaramucci. Apart from being quite excellent, his quote, when asked about Musk, is a new one on me. He likened being very rich to taking drugs. “The very rich smoke the bong of their own bullshit.” Love it!! 😂

People arriving on small boats are under 4% of migrants but Sky News & the BBC illustrate stories about immigration with a photo of an overcrowded dinghy. A more accurate illustration would be a photo of a doctor or care worker. This is how the media demonises migrants and normalises the far right.

The USA, under Trump 47, is rapidly becoming the most corrupt democracy we have seen. Trump’s recent moves to extort the DoJ, with his $1.7 billion ‘Lawfare Fund’ for convicted criminal political allies, and ban on IRS auditing of his family businesses are breathtaking. So much for the Rule of Law.

Trump & Vance need to stop meddling in British politics and sort out the mess they have created in their own country. Here’s a message back: we don’t want your division, conspiracy politics or MAGA culture wars. And we don’t want unarmed civilians shot in our streets. Britain is better than that.

The US military has 22 sites in the UK. Every day long range US bombers are taking off here to drop bombs on Iran. This is a rogue state carrying out war crimes, and threatening more. The UK Government must grow a spine - and stop our bases being used for this war.

Threatening war crimes and mocking Islam isn't a sign of strength, it's a sign of weakness. The PM should rule out UK forces and airfields being used for any attacks on Iranian civilian infrastructure. What more will it take for Starmer to call off the Royal Visit Trump craves?
