Two attacks, two completely different headlines. Disappointing to see the @theguardian1.bsky.social —once a paper of principle and integrity—slip into this kind of double standard.

VP Vance tells the Europeans that the biggest threat is not Russia, it’s not China, it’s the threat within and Europe’s inability to step up to the plate - the retreat of Europe from some of its fundamental values shared with the #US #MunichSecurityCouncil

Shocking - 24% of the #UK population is living in #poverty, a level not seen in the 21st century. The result of prolonged Tory mismanagement and the economic repercussions of #Brexit.

Kash Patel has openly expressed his plans to “come after” journalists he doesn’t like. He is for retribution, not justice. This is from my book, #RoughBeast:
