I am always amazed when I travel and there are Russians everywhere. Surely if they were banned the pressure from their upper/middle classes would have an effect on Putin?

trump had choices on oil. Immediately agree terms with Iran similar to those outlined (Obama) Pressure Russia/aid Ukraine to end the war. Subsidise fuel costs with taxes on wealth and mega-corps or tariff income 😉 Buy from Russia, helping Putin and his war with Ukraine Decisions, decisions.

If Ukraine steps up its attacks on Russian oil facilities, and trump wants to buy Russian oil, doesn't that mean an effective proxy conflict between the US and Ukraine?

So, in today's news, trump sanctions the International Criminal Court and lifts sanctions on Russian oil. Does anyone in MAGA land see the problem?

Bessent asks: where has socialism worked? Hard to say because most places that try it are attacked and sanctioned by the West. Cuba might be doing OK if not blockaded for decades for no good reason.

Unbelievable that the moronic infection of the US has taken hold in the UK despite the evidence of how well that has gone.

I applaud the UK Greens. No issue with an Israeli state but at its core, Zionism is the maximum land for Jews and minimum Arabs in that territory. It ignores a two-state solution and in current form is being aggressively pursued to exterminate Palestinians and treat them as sub-human.

NATO, ex-USA, needs to build its own independent arsenal and technology. But wait! Isn't that a European Army? Ah well. That is not going to be allowed to happen.

Struggling with relatives insisting immigrants (legal or not) are responsible for increasing welfare spend, criminality, and taxes. Renewable energy is a scam, the state jails white protesters whilst ignoring immigrant crime, and all politicians are corrupt, so why not give Trump and Farage a go.

Any voters, not just white. Especially now when people have voted for such extreme positions they are probably embarrassed to commit. Don't listen to polls. Research and vote your own thinking.

This is one way AI kills us. Not on it's own volition, but by being used unscrupulously to destroy trust in any media or politician, thus eroding or manipulating democracy.

Brilliant. If it relies on US technology, they will switch off if they want. How long and how much will it cost - decades and a lot more than 10bn. Does it defend against swarms of small drones, or AI-driven cyber attacks disabling our infrastructure.

Imagine if this clip was on TV in a Muslim country (they may well have similar). We'd be pointing at the religious fanatics and lunacy. Yet, this airs on FOX and all normal, nothing to see here.

I'm not religious, at all, but the idea of a testosterone fuelled, red-eyed intemperate Jesus seems at odds with a forgiving, benevolent type? Maybe this guy hallucinated an encounter with a demon rather than a divine?

It had a cage in a secluded corner where it had cover on top and three sides so it felt safe and secure. We did not shut the cage door.

Exactly. Starmer tried to adopt an agenda of those who would never vote for him. Any centre politician leaning more right in a vain attempt to capture that segment is appeasing and morphing into the very nastiness they embody. Attract people with a better vision. Beat them. Don't join them

And yet.. The GOP will just yell COMMUNIST and those desires will be ignored in a wave of irrational fear embedded in the culture and education over the decades.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

Sadly they can afford those losses. Ukraine needs aid to defend itself and increase the pain on Russia until it retreats from its war.

Surprise, surprise. CNN’s analysis found that Republicans have been quicker to adopt AI in political ads than their Democratic opponents. About 96% of the spending on ads that disclosed AI use came from GOP campaigns or groups. edition.cnn.com/2026/10/02/p...

Political campaigns and groups are spending tens of millions of dollars on ads that employ AI, often without disclosing that they’re using it.

An enlightening but deeply disappointing moment when I ventured a couple of opinions, not controversial but you could certainly argue with them. Then found within 5 mins that the 'nice' left-leaning (as am I) bluesky community was as rabid, unreasonable, and abusive as the right-wing a**holes on X.

I'm not making the argument. I am relaying the 'chatter' which is everywhere as people complain about the 'changes'. Sure, I can articulate some of it, but it's not my view. I'm suggesting that not addressing those views, which are not simply 'racist' will not win an election.

And yet politicians stoke fear at every election and then promote populist policies to address it.

Good point. But it seems a tipping point has been passed and many more people are under the spell that immigration is to blame. From that starting point they need to be won back. You may be right and calling it out will work. I just don't have faith that society will respond in the right way.
