Ye gods 😡. I knew he'd disgracefully shared videos of the actual attack on his precious Truth Social but this is disgusting, sickening, childish and so insensitive - correction, even a child would know better. How would he feel if it was one of his children involved? Bad taste isn't in it 😡

Abandoning Ukraine will be a stain on the United States for the rest of time
Screenshot of a statement by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reporting a Russian ballistic missile attack on Kyiv targeting critical energy infrastructure, including the CHPP-4 power plant. Zelenskyy says a residential building was also damaged and caught fire, warns of further Russian missile attacks, and criticizes the lack of advance warnings from Ukraine’s partners. An accompanying nighttime photo shows flames engulfing part of a multistory residential building, with debris scattered across the ground.

MP Emily Thornberry said her party could decide for the UK to rejoin the EU without a referendum if it were in their manifesto at a General Election. Would you take a bet on her throwing a bellowing hissy fit if the SNP said that about independence? www.thenational.scot/news/2663278...

Since 2014, 815,000 people have become old enough to vote. Added to the 574,000 people still living who didn’t vote in 2014, that amounts to 30% of the current electorate. They would like a say! #indyref2

My latest blog piece, Ian Blackford suggested last week that the SNP's boycott of the House of Lords was a weakness. It's not, it's a principle which goes to the heart of the SNP's purpose. Scotland must be governed by those it elects. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/10/13/t...

Meta just dropped a new AI model called “Wonder.” It is said to remember users’ habits, preferences, and previous conversations over extended periods, which is a significant shift both in terms of the technology and the sociopolitical implications.

The UK does not need tax revenues to pay for public spending. It can run an overdraft on the accounts it has with the Bank of England. There is no “shortage of money” to pay for pensions, other forms of social security or to provide the essential public services we all rely on.
