Priti Patel on parade. Yet to match the marching class of these North Korean soldiers!

If you want a measure of the scale of the transatlantic rift, consider this: I am told yesterday was the 1st time since 1945 the US voted with Russia & against Europe at the UN on an issue of European security. Just let that sink in. 1/4

Please stop whatever you are doing and watch this. The charlatan snake oil merchant RFK on the ropes as his very own words become knockout blows.

This is president of @Google - a company accused of illegally harvesting copyrighted work - saying journalists need to learn to use AI or ‘risk missing out’. He’s just been appointed to the board of @guardian. I hope every journalist in the org watches this & asks: why?

15% of American adults take or have taken Ozempic. Denmark is considering blocking all sales to America - as well as Lego and access to Maersk shipping - which accounts for 15% of global shipping. Surprisingly good leverage for a small little country.

Actually no. This misses the point of Jesus's Parable of the Good Samaritan (Lk 10: 25-37). After Jesus tells a lawyer that you should "love your neighbor as yourself," the lawyer asks him, "And who is my neighbor?" In response, Jesus tells the story of a Jewish man who has been beaten by robbers and is lying by the side of the road. The man is helped not by those closest to him (a "priest" and a "Levite"), but rather by a Samaritan. At the time, Jews and Samaritans would have considered one another enemies. So Jesus's fundamental message is that *everyone* is your neighbor, and that it is not about helping just your family or those closest to you. It's specifically about helping those who seem different, foreign, other. They are all our "neighbors." But Jesus's deeper point can only be understood from the point of view of the beaten man: our ultimate salvation depends, as it did for that man, upon those whom we often consider to be the "stranger."

BREAKING: AOC blames crash on Trump / Elon “I represent LGA Airport as well as workers for JFK. Trump gutted the Aviation Safety committee last week. Air traffic controllers, already understaffed, got Trump’s “buyout” this wk with a 1 wk ultimatum to decide. It’s not DEI - it’s him. And Elon too.”

BREAKING: New, much more clear video of the American Airlines collision with the Black Hawk. Thoughts from any Pilots?

Denmark is better than the USA in every way.

MAGA.

The Victorians put an end to the dumping of raw sewage in the Thames. A century later, Thatcher's privatisation brought it back.

Franco, Hitler, Mao, Pinochet, Pol Pot, Stalin, and countless other dictators said virtually the same thing as Vance does here. To authoritarians, experts and academics are always the enemy

We wouldn’t want that now would we… but from this day forward ….

'Bezos owns the platform where the killer bought his knife... and Musk failed to remove a violent terrorist video watched by the killer before he went to Southport.’ James O’Brien wonders 'how the hell' the British government can 'rein in' the powers of big tech companies.

I used to say Trump’s greatest legacy is the destruction of truth. I stand corrected. Trump’s greatest legacy is convincing the American people not to care. I mean, think about it. Trump is the only presidential candidate in American history to lose an election and refuse to accept the result. And the American people don’t care. Trump committed crimes trying to stay in power. And the American people don’t care. Trump is singularly responsible for the only attempt in American history to overthrow an American election. And the American people don’t care. And tonight, Trump just pardoned those who were convicted of the most violent crimes on January 6th. And the American people won’t care.

I think Elon is unhappy that Wikipedia is not for sale. I hope his campaign to defund us results in lots of donations from people who care about the truth. If Elon wanted to help, he'd be encouraging kind and thoughtful intellectual people he agrees with to engage. donate.wikimedia.org

@cadmaw @annettedittert I'm afraid you are wrong on this. If you think Channel4 is lying on their website about their funding then you should complain to Ofcom! See the Chanel4 FAQs at channel4.com/corporate/abou…

@G4OEU @annettedittert Wrong

Just embarrassing.

@cadmaw @annettedittert Unlike the BBC, Channel 4 is not funded by the taxpayer. It is funded entirely by its own commercial activities, including advertising.

@annettedittert Aaah still funded by taxpayers . Not for much longer. Subscription the way to go.

@Xsteveholl @i_iratus My name’s Steve Holland and I make random shit up then post it on X.

"A massive stain on British history" - according to the never intentionally informed Mike Graham - that, for the 45th time in a row, the UK prime minister will not be at an event that no British PM ever attended!
