@JayinKyiv They might just have played a blinder by including trump in the ultimatum to putin If putin doesn't accept, this gives trump justification to go all in arming Ukraine.

So, the leaders of France, Germany, UK and Poland came to Kyiv with no other plan than to ask Putin to stop, which he absolutely has no intention of doing.

@WeJustDisagree1 @RepDonBacon This misses the key point, that unless Russia are actually defeated, they will continue to attack Ukraine. Any ceasefire will just give them chance to rearm and attack again. This is the history of the last 3 decades in Ukraine.

This path is 180 degrees off the path to peace. I know, I know….its the land. It’s the principle. But young people are being ground up by the thousands….and the only possible way Ukraine can “win” is if we put 100,000 of our kids in the grinder. No. Wars are won and lost. Borders change. Stop sending kids to the slaughter.

To the Deputy Chair of the Russian Security Council: you invaded your neighbor. You bomb your neighbor’s cities and murder their POWs. You’ve kidnapped nearly 20,000 Ukrainian kids. You’ve raped and pillaged areas you occupy. You suppress Evangelicals in occupied areas. You earned the world’s disgust.

@DavidWolfe Maybe worth considering what the infant mortality rate used to be prior to these vaccinations vs now?

@BraddrofliT Wait till you find out he also identifies as Christ's representative on earth, pronouns "holiness / holy father"...

Today a 69 year old man known as Robert his entire life walked out on a balcony and self identified as Leo. The entire world now calls him Leo without question. See how easy it is to accept and respect what an individual identifies as?

@Manorsolomon @LUFC Hope your future lies in Leeds. Stay, become a Leeds legend. Take us back into Europe. We sing the names of our legends decades later. Hope to be singing your name for decades too.

After nearly a year without football, I couldn’t have asked for a better comeback season and a better ending. I really don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that Leeds United will forever be in my heart. Thank you again, fans, for the unforgettable past few weeks and all your incredible support and love throughout the entire season. WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! 💛💙 #MOT

@odin_lat @secretsqrl123 Because then Russia piss trump off by not agreeing to the ceasefire, leading to Trump arming Ukrainr to win the war. Smoke, mirrors.

@secretsqrl123 In that case, why is Ukraine now asking for a ceasefire?

the death of the russian army.... and how the ukraine army is winning

@jaredkeithwhite @emilykmay Tbh most of my socks were presents. I welcome the socks presents.

@emilykmay This fits. Men wouldn’t even have these holidays if it were up to us, and none of us want a gift. We don’t need the socks that no one put any thought into anyway. We’ve bought our own socks our entire life.

can yall imagine being in the car on the way to a Father's Day cookout at your parent's with your husband and kids and when you're 4 blocks away turning to him and saying, "you got my dad a card and a gift right?"

@TheLeedsPress Should be in the mix for regular starts. He's one of the few with prem experience.

Yes or No? #LUFC

@juul_survivor 6? That's an oddly low threshold.

Why does my new doctors office need to know my bodycount what's going on

@renewablewriter Ah, great, thanks. I'll soon be able to fit a heat pump then.

@GavinAndrewsLS It’s not immediately obvious but Amendment 5(3)(c) refers to the removal of the 1m rule in The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015.

We've published new legislation to relax rules around permitted development for heat pumps. Changes will come into effect from 29 May and should make it easier for consumers to install a heat pump without a full planning application.   For more info visit: legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2025/560/…

@desokell @web_bn @DaniAlmazan_ @JavierBlas Stubbornly high borrowing costs are probably a factor, meaning this could be a ploy for great British energy to step in with the finance.

@web_bn @DaniAlmazan_ @JavierBlas Correct, and the lingering reality of much of the renewable assets not lasting until payout.

Renewable champion Orsted cancels what was going to be one of the largest UK windfarms (Hornsea 4 with ~2.4 GW capacity). It said the project didn't make economic sense, despite a 15-year government contract to sell electricity (in 2025 money, CfD for the project is ~£83/MWh)

@BrianRanda47794 @SpencerHakimian They don't. You've been lied to. Wto rules mean the US even without a trade agreement the US gets the best rates of any other country outside of a trade block.

@SpencerHakimian If tariffs are absolutely terrible I can't help but ask why so many other countries have them on us. Maybe one day they will see the light and not be so ridiculous.

Japan is "firmly opposed" to the U.S. trade offer. We can continue pausing the tariffs indefinitely (and we should do this with China too). And yes, if the tariffs are just indefinitely paused, its not a big deal for risk assets/the economy, even though it achieves nothing. But at some point, you need to ask the question, what the hell is the point of all of this? We can't get close to consensus with Japan after a full month. How could we possibly reach consensus with China? Pause all the tariffs. Now.

@iconawrites @eatnik Try yorkshire. Famously blunt. Life's too short to beat around the Bush, just tell it like it is.

@eatnik Honestly one of the things I miss the most about continental Europe now that I live in England. I love the British, but their fear of conflict and unwillingness to be frank and have difficult conversations leads to many misunderstandings and unresolved issues.

I'd forgotten how blunt Europeans are in meetings. French attendee: "Hello, you have given an explanation but it is very bad so I have many questions."

@Brooklynmonk @RetroAgent12 Or, perhaps they could follow this small detail known as.... due process. That process designed to weed out errors like this before they happen.

@RetroAgent12 OK, so you found 1 error among 20 million proposed deportations. You could help bring down the error margin by asking local authoritis to cooperate with ICE.

@JavierBlas Ah the joys of the cascade failure the grid operators have mandated be set up in every sseg inverter. Auto shut downs of many GW when grid frequency or voltage drop below set limits. Was always a crazy way of doing this, based on a mindset of renewables being negligible.

BREAKING: Spanish grid operator just offered the first (but tentative) blackout timeline:

@TomHess_ @yestiseye @JavierBlas All ev charges should have to shut down / reduce power below 49.5htz etc. National grid wanted to maintain centralised control rather than automating distributed responses. Nb old g59 inverters had to have underfrequency setting reduced a few years back, as was much worse.

@TomHess_ @yestiseye @JavierBlas 2. Followed by low frequency shut down of all sseg renewable below 47htz. Never understood why the authorities built in this cascade failure into our renewable regulations. Instead they should have mandated all renewable Inc batteries switch to full power below say 48htz.

In press conference now, Spain's Prime Minister says the country lost ~15 GW of power supply in five seconds at 12.33pm Madrid time. He says the government doesn't know why so much electricity supply (~60% of total at that point) was lost so suddenly.

@Censored4sure @ms_dingo So, they just happened to have covid at the time they died, at home? Just a mere coincidence the whole covid thing in your view, for every single person?

@ms_dingo It’s not false. Just because they were labeled a covid death to fit the “narrative”, doesn’t mean they died from a virus. You people are freaks. In the same breath you will tell us everything is not about the “vaccine”.

Is it sinking in yet❓
