Rationality over emotion, does it work or merely make you feel virtuous? Don’t be a sheep, act the goat. I have now chosen my monster. Veteran.

He is a crook. And remains one despite being pardoned by Trump. Indeed a Trump pardon makes it worse BadLoss
Matt Goodwin@GoodwinMJ
This is the ultimate boss move. Left-wing Starmer government tries to shut down donations to Reform, the People's Army. So Ben Delo moves BACK to the UK so he can donate millions to help people save their country. Ben cares deeply about defending free speech. Top bloke👍

@robertk68590134 @DennisCanavan @StopTheReign Tell that to Historic Environment Scotland who manage it on behalf of the Scottish government. You obviously know remarkably little about the ongoing use to which it’s put, public opening etc.
English
@trygerspud @DennisCanavan @StopTheReign So it could be put to permanent better use, house NHS staff or people experiencing homelessness, maybe, or ex-service people who they use for PR

Another example of royal exploitation. Why should the public have to pay up to £101 to access a public building ? Holyrood Palace belongs to the Crown i.e. It is publicly owned and is maintained by Historic EnvironmentScotland, funded by taxpayers.

@Ross_Greer @scottishgreens And how do you tax land of great nominal value that generates next to no income? Eejit!
English
Scotland's public finances are in a grim state.
But the richest 2% of Scots have more wealth than half the population combined.
The @scottishgreens would tax that wealth fairly to protect the public services we all rely on.

@kittysull1 His immediate problem is failing to analyse where the national interest lies.
English
He’s right. His first priority is the safety and security of the British people, the defence of our country.

Starmer declines to say whether his relationship with Trump is in 'tatters' but insists: 'I act in the British national interest and nothing, nothing, is going to deflect me from that'

@DawnButlerBrent @UKLabour The kids don’t see the money. But their parents can get more false nails, hair extensions and nights out.
Money isn’t the answer.
English
7,250 children in Brent East lifted out of poverty because @ukLabour has lifted the two-child benefit cap.
That is a huge difference for families in our community and ending child poverty benefits all of us. I’m so proud we’ve taken this step.
English
@DawnButlerBrent @UKLabour So more money for feckless parents already not prioritising their kids?
English
@KernowQ And yet this geostrategic idiot periodically pronounces on the square root of militarily not a lot. No thank you KFS!
English
This man is so much better than any of the last 5 PMs or any other pretenders.
The UK is a medium power and must build alliances with others to seek optmal outcomes.
Only idiots pretend otherwise.
So much detail, so much diplomacy.
Such a difficult job being done.
Thank you KS

'It is very important that we get the Strait of Hormuz open'. Keir Starmer is in Saudi Arabia for talks with Gulf allies. The UK's prime minister says that there is "still a lot of work to do" to reopen the oil and gas shipping route. trib.al/XqSPamw

@JimHagart @davidkurten @iwelsh What are you on about? Healey’s ‘68 Defence announcement ended East of Suez. The political establishment simply ignored the effects of their own cuts and carried on posturing.
English
@davidkurten @iwelsh The return to port must surely bring to an end the pretensions of Global Britain. The RN has more problems than Scottish ferries with far less justification: RN supported by a budget that can be stretched whenever necessary; the indirect ferry funds come from a fixed annual grant
English
HMS Dragon, which was absolutely not hit by a Hezbollah missile, returns to port for repairs due to 'problems with drinking water'.
English
@davidkurten I doubt it’s about drinking water so much as the water cooling of key onboard electrical systems.

@robertk68590134 @DennisCanavan @StopTheReign It’s a dank historic relic not a home. It’s barely been occupied since James VI dashed South to become James I on 5th April 1603.

@trygerspud @DennisCanavan @StopTheReign Billionaires who don't like or use homes aren't what we need.
English
@robertk68590134 @DennisCanavan @StopTheReign They don’t see a dime and don’t even like the place. They barely stat there outside Royal week. It’s no great shakes.
English
@DennisCanavan @StopTheReign One big Mafia-style grifting family living under the banner of the so-called British pride. Do you see the con job that it is yet? This country needs a massive change, and soon.
English
@DennisCanavan Because it’s an angry divisive waste of time and the losers would be even more frustrated than last time. Just imagine the likes of Swinney rallying his carpet booted troops….. 🤦🏻
English
At his manifesto launch, Scottish Tory Leader Findlay said that the prospect of a referendum on independence is " not just concerning to me but terrifying". The cat's oot the bag. He's wetting his breeks about letting the people decide because he knows the verdict of the people.

@getononematey @superj1606 @bedford_colleen @GBNEWS It’s OFCOM’s idea of required balance. They can Pisa off!
English
@superj1606 @bedford_colleen @GBNEWS They do it on purpose .. they deliberately put thick annoying lefties on. It gives strength to the ‘right’ side of the discussion.

@Turne12860Aidan @clyntonK1 @NickCohen4 International law is something of a fiction for lack of courts and policing but then so too is the idea you have any real knowledge of targeting and BDA.
English
@trygerspud @clyntonK1 @NickCohen4 Following experts on here. Knowing quite a bit about International law. That sort of thing.

Starmer handling of this crisis has been the making of him
FT UK Politics@ftukpolitics
UK will not allow US to use air bases for infrastructure attacks, signals Downing Street ft.trib.al/yClFCQm
English
@trygerspud Trump made quite clear what he intended to attack, and he stated he would destroy a civilisation.
English
So the bottom line is that the US bombers did leave UK bases last evening fully loaded to strike whatever crazy locations the mad president intended.
I don't care that they returned. It's unjustifiable that Starmer allowed them to do it. Starmer must go, and the US bases must go as well.
English
@Robbie_Reasons Mr Andrews is the very thing of which he accuses the mass of the population.
English
@clyntonK1 @NickCohen4 Virtually all military targets have already been hit. This operation is specifically designed to hit infrastructure that Iranian people depend on. It is unquestionably a War Crime.
