Many royal correspondents have said it would be difficult for Brian to strip Andrew of his titles, as it would require a huge amount of parliamentary time. But Britain managed to de-king Edward VIII... and it only took a morning. Watch Page 94, the Private Eye podcast, on YouTube.

In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Peaceful rioting in Tel Aviv tonight by those Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans, so bad that the match was cancelled. I wonder did the UK police ban them because 'antisemitism' or was it because they are violent thugs?

Lords Heseltine & Kinnock seem more alive to these self-evident truths than most members of the Commons. Similarly, I find thinkers with direct lived experience of far right dictatorship, Greeks of a certain age for example, crystal clear about what’s happening now.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him. Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership." SHARE!

Jenrick can't control who stands in the background of his photos, but he can decide whether to attend protests with a far-right message and a documented history of being organised by the far-right. He knows this. He goes anyway. Once upon a time it would have been a sackable offence.

Know your Farage, he is a danger to Britain.
Farage’s team recently travelled to Budapest and “sought advice from aides to Viktor Orban”, The Times reports today. 

That’s the same Viktor Orban who has bulldozed Hungary’s judicial system, restricted press freedom, attacked LGBT rights, and partnered with Putin.

Farage’s agenda is becoming clearer by the day.

The taboo question: At what point does America become unworthy as our ally?
It’s the age of pragmatic politics – too often unburdened by morality – but do we need to question the “shared values” of the alliance.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

This is what Tory prime minister Ted Heath said when sacking Enoch Powell from his shadow cabinet in 1968. Starmer's speech today was a dangerous & disgustingly cynical attempt to outflank Farage by demonising migrants. Labour ministers can't sack Starmer but they could & should resign.
A statement issued by Mr Heath said: "I have told Mr Powell that I consider the speech he made in Birmingham yesterday to have been racialist in tone and liable to exacerbate racial tensions. This is unacceptable from one of the leaders of the Conservative Party."

The Green Party has always been clear, the Government must recognise the state of Palestine. And now Labour are even being outflanked by the Tories on this issue. In the face of clear genocide and ethnic cleansing by Israel, there is only one correct course of action.
