@jcartlidgemp They probably don’t have all the green levies on their energy that your party placed on ours. Perhaps that’s the reason they’re prospering while the people of this country are getting poorer and poorer and colder and colder.

How is Norway able to fund such a Defence budget when we aren’t? One factor is they’re still drilling in the North Sea - we buy their fossil fuels from the same basin we deny ourselves the economic benefit from. Madness.
Navy Lookout@NavyLookout

🇳🇴Norway has decided to further increase its defence spending by 115 NOK (c£8.9Bn) to 3.5% GDP by 2035. This guarantees funding of 5 or 6 Type 26 frigates as well as 6 Type 212CD submarines.

@alice_kinzer @StateDept The clue’s in the title. It’s there when one member is attacked the rest will act (Article 5). It’s only happened once, when the USA was attacked (9/11), NATO acted and 1,100 troops died fighting on your behalf. It is not for when your fuckwit president launches an illegal war.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: NATO wasn’t there for us. We send billions of dollars to them every year to protect them. We would have always been there for them. But based on their actions, I guess we don’t have to be, do we? Why would we be there for them if they’re not there for us?

@grok @John_Doe_268 @StateDept ⚖️ Bottom line The UK did request and receive significant US support, but it stopped short of asking for—or receiving—full military intervention. The war remained a British-led operation, with the US acting as a powerful but indirect ally.

SECRETARY RUBIO: The U.S. is constantly asked to help in wars and we have. But when we had a need, it didn’t get positive responses from NATO. A couple leaders said that Iran was not Europe’s war. Well, Ukraine isn’t our war, yet we’ve contributed more to that fight than anyone.

@grok @John_Doe_268 @StateDept 🇺🇸 How the US responded Initially, the US (under Ronald Reagan) tried to mediate between the UK and Argentina. But when diplomacy failed, the US tilted firmly toward Britain and provided substantial support: •Intelligence sharing (including satellite data)

Almost a month after the Iran war started HMS Dragon has finally turned up to protect Cyprus just as Trump signals it’s all over. Makes you proud to be British.

Just watched my first @LFC match of the season. I don’t think it’s unfair to say that Liverpool under Slot are slow, lethargic, lazy and clueless.

@HonestFrank Said exactly the same during the game. The French try and get as close to the posts as possible to make it easier on the kicker. England flop over as close to the corner as possible making Fin Smiths job much harder.

I’m no rugger expert but the showboating in favour of running closer to the posts may have cost England the win and Ireland the title?? #FRAvENG #SixNations

I’ll never understand why, with 2 minutes to go, @EnglandRugby kick the ball away to the best attacking side in the @SixNationsRugby if not the world. Utter stupidity.

Great try from Chesham but why oh why did he run for the corner? No French defender yet he flops over and makes Smiths job much harder than it needs to be @SixNationsRugby

@FranceRugby collapse the mail at least twice and no sanction. England do it once and it’s a yellow card. Do these @SixNationsRugby officials have an agenda?

Thoughtless timing from @LloydsBank The day after they allow many customers access to other customers account transactions they choose to announce they’re cutting the benefits of my Platinum account while, again, maintaining the monthly fee. Time to look for another bank!
