The removal of US bombers from RAF Fairford is a welcome step in ending Britain's role as a staging ground for Trump's imperialist atrocities around the world. We hope this leads to further demilitarisation and the swift removal of US nuclear weapons and personnel from Britain.

I think the boot's on the other leg. It's cyclists (not all of us; not me, for example) who've apparently declared war on other road users! The aggression can be mind-boggling.

The MoD recently gave a £10 million contract to an Israeli-owned arms firm which operates under the authority of minister Bezalel Smotrich -- who is subject to UK sanctions. Is Andy Burnham going to do anything about that? www.declassifieduk.org/uk-awarded-c...

Fair play to Ed Miliband, who has broken the political consensus, spoken sense in the Commons and acknowledged our shared humanity. Of course, the government could and should go much further, especially in condemning the continuing horrors in Gaza and stopping ALL arms sales, but this is a start.

Now that James Orr has been forced to step down from his role at Reform UK, perhaps the rest of the media will, belatedly, wake up to the story unearthed by @bylinetimes.bsky.social about what he’s been up to at Cambridge.

Highly unlikely, since his free ride into Downing Street was facilitated by the very people who would have opposed him had he not committed to follow that line. It's unbearably depressing, but at least his tenure will be short-lived as a result.

The media silence over the Island of Strangers speech seems to be part of an overall consensus that it’s impossible for people *not* to be against immigration. The media won’t even consider that there are people upset by xenophobia.
