How has the world come to this? As @iandunt.bsky.social put it: "Neither the US government nor a tech billionaire should be able to dictate the fortunes of a European war. This was another sign, if one was needed, that Europe urgently needs to develop its own alternatives."

Faragists rely on the narrative of "men on boats" creating a de facto Fifth Column in the UK to feed their agenda and to stir up hostility and to win votes and ultimately power. Suckers fall for it. Media boosts it. We've been here so many times before and you'd think we'd all wise up but hey ho

How is it that Danny Tommo sits in a cell

bail?


Is this two-tier Britain, or am I missing
