😏Scott Morrison was filmed in a block of flats carrying a meat cleaver and claimed he just wanted to talk to another individual 🤔 - P&J Hmm would I believe him?
Also in the Telegraph - Wes Streeting Took Over £50k From Donors Linked to Palantir and Israeli Weapons - novaramedia.com IMO if there is an investigation into Wes Streeting, there has to be an investigation into others incl. Yvette Cooper who is said to receive money from Israeli companies
Just in case the news has not reached Americans, Iran has denied Donald Trump's claim that new talks on ending the conflict would begin on Monday, after the US president called off what he said would have been "massive" strikes on the country - BBC Scumbags always lie
Beautiful. Petunia? My daughter gave me this rose in a birthday present 2 yrs ago. It blooms and blooms
watched great movie on Amazon - "Sink the Bismark" with Kenneth More. About half a dozen British warships chased and sunk the pride of Germany. Could that be done today with a foreign enemy? Not a chance with a few rustbuckets and leaky old subs. UKGov has deliberately neglected armed forces.
that's just so gross😧 From NYT: Fertility Doctor Accused of Using Own Sperm to Impregnate Woman Dr. Dennis Lutz, the chairman of the University of North Dakota’s OB-GYN department, did not deny the claims in a lawsuit. The university said it intends to fire him.
Ordinary Americans struggle with higher prices, health care cuts, education cuts, citizens' rights cuts and other threats in their daily lives - with a president who doesn't know how to run a country, doesn't know how to end a war he started, doesn't know how to manage the economy and doesn't care.
Paused early release scheme 'unfortunately a necessary evil', says Prison Officers' Association - SkyNews 🤨IMO an alternative to early release might be to finish their sentence serving in the UK armed forces. Might do some of them the world of good
Emergency Services have evacuated the 650 residents of Nethy Bridge, near Aviemore in the Cairngorms due to a change in wind direction of a massive wildfire
Is President Trump about to bomb Mali? US media is reporting that a military campaign could be launched - SkyNews 🤔 If it doesn't have vast oil reserves to steal or something Trump can exploit why would POTUS47 bother?
UK figures are #horrendous: 23,411 cases of human trafficking/modern slavery reported 2025 + 7,130 extra cases reported through Duty to Notify process. 30% were kids. 22% were British nationals. Labour exploitation biggest reason for adult referrals, criminal exploitation was biggest cause for kids
has anyone done a survey to see how many MAGA voters have benefitted, in any way, from Trump's presidency - apart from those pardoned for their crimes that is😏
Needs a bit of explaining I think! 🤨Aberdeen City council staff spending on their corporate card reveals surprise purchases, overseas trips and one unusual £1,000 Norwegian gluten free spread - P&J
the bitterness of "Starmites" will go on and on, sneering at Burnham's efforts. Yet it was the Labour Party itself with Starmer's own ministers who ousted Sir Keir - by 233 Labour MPS
The Trump Curse: New York's Knicks supporters believe it; Argentina football team fans believe it. Does it only affect sports? Ordinary Americans are losing their healthcare, losing their rights, losing their jobs. The cost of living is rising for Americans while POTUS47 gets richer & richer
Andy Burnham faces left-wing revolt if Shabana Mahmood made chancellor - The Times 😏 IMO can't please all of the people all of the time. One of the biggest gripes of UK voters is #immigration. It is said Mahmood has a stronger hand to fix that if chancellor🤔
Trump rescinds habitat protection under ESA The Trump administration announced Friday that it rolled back a key protection for endangered species - The Hill. USA is becoming more and more unrecognisable these days. In all but name, #TrumpLand😒
Scottish Government must be ready for the energy crisis. Dumbo Trump's war will go on and on making everyone's energy costs go up and up. Unaffordable.
Turtle Island. Before the white settlers came, the gold diggers, the get-rich-quick lot, the slave traders, the take-everything-you-can families and the opportunists who followed them
worse off under Starmer? PM Keir Starmer is expected to ignore calls — including from his likely successor as prime minister — for the U.K. to sign up to a multilateral defence bank championed by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney at next month's NATO summit - Politico
Why can’t Britain hold on to prime ministers? asks American CNN Simply IMO, one doesn't keep duds. If it doesn't work, it's thrown away. Starmer had little compassion on the people, instead drew the Labour Party and government into a corner that he could not and would not lead them out of.
Truss failed because she made bad choices. Johnson failed because he was a bullshitter who didn't care. They all lost the faith of the people. When a leader forgets the country is the people, they are no longer worthy to lead
🤔who will be the PM has changed to who should be the PM. My guess is if Andy Burnham comes to HoC this Monday, Starmer will somehow try to upstage him😏
Keir Starmer talks as if he is a good PM. He says he has achieved much in 2yrs. But truth is from the get go Starmer lied to the people, dithered, took from the people even the vulnerable, showed no care for people, arrested protesters but forgot the most important thing - the country are the people
Scottish Conservatives won South Aberdeen, a mix of council estates/ businesses. Obvious SNP got the message wrong and didn't feel these people's pain. The demise of Aberdeen because drilling licenses were withheld by UKGov is a really really sore point with so many. Milliband has to go
MEPs have voted in favour of introducing 'return hubs' outside EU for asylum seeker's applications that have been rejected. The motion passed by 418 votes to 218, with 30 abstentions. The changes include an end to second country movements within the EU by someone seeking asylum.- RTE News
Starmer on the defensive and clinging tightly to the top of the tree, has warned Andy Burnham against launching an immediate challenge to his leadership. Apparently Starmer was so busy with his interview defending himself, he was an hour late at a G7 meeting so Macron had to start without him
🤣🤣 Trump decries ‘dishonorable people’ after reports Iran made few concessions in deal US has said could be soon signed. - Al Jazeera As reported the "deal" is really no deal at all but total capitulation by US.
