@JohnSimpsonNews That's me reassured

A White House spokesperson says any implication that people linked to the Trump admin have used inside info to make big profits from putting bets on US attacks on Iran, peace deals or falls in the price of oil is ‘baseless and irresponsible reporting’. Phew — that’s a relief.

@PadraigBelton London buses fallen out of favour?

I write for British newspapers. The only valid units of measurement are: Wales, swimming pools, football pitches. Fight me.

@panyiszabolcs @michaeldweiss Best news in ages. Welcome back, Hungary.

💥🇭🇺🗳️ BREAKING: Péter Magyar says Viktor Orbán called to concede and congratulate him. Magyar will be Hungary’s next prime minister and, as it stands, is set to secure a 2/3 supermajority – enough to fully dismantle Orbán’s system. A 16-year chapter is over.

@DonaldJTrumpJr Oh I hope Orban is out. Not only for a free Hungary but to really piss you MAGAs off.

To our friends in Hungary, we hope you will vote for independent thinking and for someone who stands for Hungary First. We hope you will vote for my father’s friend and ally. One leader in Europe has a direct line to the White House, I hope you will support Viktor Orban! #Hungary

@DrBenTapper1 @DaveBlass Did you get your doctorate by collecting five tokens from the back of cereal packet?

@DaveBlass Dave, we have been lied to. I know it’s a hard pill to swallow.

The pic on the left, the blue moon, was taken with my Nikon P1000. The one on the right is from the Artemis mission. Let that sink in. Over 100 billion dollars of taxpayer money and my 1000 dollar camera produces a better image. Are you kidding me??? It’s comical at this point….Why haven’t we seen better footage and more high quality photos??? What are they hiding?

@DeckoDeck903 @wallyt53 True. I prefer to think of it as no matter our constitutional position we really are the same people if we'd only recognise it.

@Cyberbeagle1 @wallyt53 Sadly this lead some uninformed to label him Fitt the Brit as well as reports of him dining with an RUC man after a civil rights march as well as him taking a seat in HOL

Monday marked the centenary of the birth of Ian Paisley and today is the centenary of the birth of Gerry Fitt. No matter what our views are on either man, they were both giants of Irish history.

@iamjohnoliver @LastWeekTonight John, are you moonlighting playing the accordion with @andrerieu at the moment?

@DeckoDeck903 @wallyt53 There was an interview on Newsnight or similar I remember when Paisley didn't seem to know Gerry Fitt waa being brought on, and to the interviewer's surprise Ian was delighted and derailed the show by asking Gerry how he was and how the family was before they got back on topic.

@wallyt53 They also seemed on a personal level to get on well

@RepJackKimble @archer_rs Consult the Book of Armaments!

The Vatican is months away from a nuclear weapon. I join Peter Thiel in calling for JD Vance to be the new Pope.

@WhiteHouse If I recall you weren't there in 1982 for us when Argentina invaded the Falklands. Yeah some behind the scenes stuff. If I recall many Americans funded and supported the IRA. But yet the UK did support you in Iraq (twice) and Afghanistan and the Orange Cunt insulted our war dead.

“NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!!” - President Donald J. Trump

@bewatchful @WhiteHouse Haha. Good one.

@WhiteHouse Thank you for your relentless work ethic for the American people. We won’t get tired of winning President Trump. God bless the U.S.A.! 🙏🇺🇸

@mehdirhasan Only one who's discredited himself is you. Very disappointed in you.

It's astonishing that you, a world leader who many respected for standing up to an illegal attack on your country, now support an illegal attack on another country. It completely kills your credibility. Right now. Iran is Ukraine. You may not like to hear that but that is a fact

@FurkanGozukara @EricIdle @BBCverified @BBCRosAtkins be interesting for you guys to look into this.

Absolute disaster for the Pentagon. Famous Prof. Jiang exposes a massive coverup. The pilot rescue was actually a catastrophic failed raid to steal Iran's enriched uranium. The US military suffered a humiliating defeat, losing 300 million dollars in equipment.

@HealthRanger @thecurioustales No different than trying to shoot a moving target over a long distance. You aim where the object will be, not where it is now. Funny you'd think Americans would be familiar with this concept 😆

@thecurioustales Seriously? "The human brain cannot process what this actually means." It's actually one of the simplest ideas ever. In fact, it's built into the neurology of insects. Your post is stupid.

🚨SHOCKING: Artemis II mission isn’t “going to the Moon.” It’s aiming for a precise point in space where the Moon will be. 252,706 miles away . The human brain cannot process what this actually means. Every space mission you’ve ever seen depicted gets this fundamentally wrong. Movies show rockets flying toward a destination like an airplane flying toward an airport. Point at target, fire engines, arrive. Reality operates under completely different physics. When NASA launched Artemis II on April 1, 2026 , the Moon was somewhere entirely different than where the spacecraft will intercept it on April 6 . The rocket launched toward empty space, betting everything on a mathematical prediction of where a target traveling 67,000 miles per hour would position itself five days  in the future. Space travel is not transportation. It’s temporal ballistics. The Moon orbits Earth every 27.3 days, covering roughly 1.5 million miles of distance. During the ten day journey of Artemis II  , the Moon moves approximately 370,000 miles along its orbital path. The spacecraft launched in a direction that looks completely wrong to every human instinct, following a free-return trajectory that intercepts the Moon’s future position  , not its current one. This requires predicting exactly where an object the size of a continent will be located, down to mile precision, five days before the meeting happens. Any error in orbital calculation, any miscalculation in the Moon’s gravitational influences from Earth and Sun, any slight deviation in spacecraft velocity, and the crew of Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen  sails past their target into the infinite void of space. NASA engineers call this a “free return trajectory,”   but the name obscures the cognitive breakthrough required to make it work. You cannot think about space travel the way you think about any form of transportation that exists on Earth. Destinations don’t exist in space. Only intercepts exist. You’re never going somewhere. You’re always going somewhen. The mathematics behind orbital rendezvous calculations treats time and space as completely integrated variables. The spacecraft’s translunar injection burn on April 2  lasted exactly six minutes. Miss that window by even minutes, and the geometric relationship between Earth’s rotation, the Moon’s orbital position, and the spacecraft’s trajectory becomes unsolvable. The destination literally disappears from the realm of possibility until celestial mechanics realign. The Artemis II crew spent five days flying through vacuum toward coordinates   that would contain nothing but empty space if they had launched 24 hours earlier or later. They bet their lives on humanity’s ability to predict the future position of celestial objects with mathematical precision that exceeds anything we do on Earth. Today, April 6, they’ll pass within 4,070 miles of the lunar surface , reaching their maximum distance from Earth. But they launched toward empty space and intercepted a moving target with pinpoint accuracy across a quarter million mile void. Space doesn’t contain destinations. It contains equations.

@thecurioustales @Kasparov63 Yes I did comprehend this before thank you very much. The obvious implications are if they get it wrong they won't be able to slingshot around the moon using its gravity. I believe they can reverse course so no-one is going to go flinging off into deep space, but still...

@BGatesIsaPyscho Super easy. Barely an inconvenience.

🚨🚀 The White House just dropped this new clip in earnest for NASA Artemis II Launch. Still waiting for one qualified person to explain how they are going to get through the Van Allen Radiation Belt..

@iamufohunter Still believing this shit?

🚨 " No man ever went to the moon and cannot go more than 500 miles to space because of the Van allen belt which is highly radioactive" John Lear, son of the man behind Learjet and a pilot with deep ties to aviation culture says ET made van allen belt so that Humans couldn't contaminate space.

@barrabest Though not mutually exclusive... Caca-cáca would be an awful one. And Old Man Sean is sorted though.

The fada is crucial in Irish. Cáca - means "cake" Caca - means "poop" Seán - a male name Sean - means “old”

@AndDabbles22227 @PeterMeijer Watch out for that one in the corner then

@Cyberbeagle1 @PeterMeijer As they control the home office very likely yes.

It would behoove our NATO allies to appreciate that this sentiment is *very* widely shared, including amongst erstwhile boosters of trans-Atlantic relations.

@SlippySlipnuts @PeterMeijer @guypbenson Deranged? No just recognise a charlatan when I see one.

@Cyberbeagle1 @PeterMeijer @guypbenson Do you really believe everyone is as deranged about DJT as you are? If you do, you should get out more… travel more.
