Donald Trump says he’s building a White House ballroom. But beneath it is a six-storey bunker. Above it, plans for a military drone facility. Around it, security is being strengthened. So what exactly is Trump preparing for? @eastangliabylines.co.uk @guyanthonyayres.bsky.social

Mirror mirror on the wall, who wants the fairest ballroom of them all?
Trump’s White House ballroom, bunker and security uplift raise questions: is he preparing for a dance – or a political siege?

My garden takes lots of my time, but I wouldn't have it any other way. This Peacock Butterfly visiting a flower that I've grown is a very special feeling indeed. #Butterfly #BritishGarden

This is a Refugee Tax. It was originally proposed by the Tories, and the only reason asylum seekers could be claimed to 'owe' any money is because they are banned from working. Another cruel Labour policy - that must be reversed on day one by Andy Burnham. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Refugees will be told to repay £10,000 under new asylum rules
Ministers will be given powers to recover costs from adults who have received asylum support under new laws.

He's quoting Kanye West to score points and stir up trouble over a truly horrible case that resulted in the death of a young man. I hope it all backfires horribly for this poor excuse of a politician.

From food to pharmaceuticals, most companies have to prove that their products are safe before they’re sold. Until social media companies can prove their platforms are safe for young people, a ban for children under 16 is the only way to stem the harms we know are happening now.

Why should any political donations other than a standard annual party membership fee (say £25) be permitted? All other options allow wealthy people disproportionate political influence.

The same people who said that the mass murder of children in schools was a sad but necessary price to enable citizens to bear arms and oppose tyranny are now saying that if you carry a gun it’s your fault if you’re murdered.
