ANDREW NEIL: there’s a list of reasons as long as your arm why the NATO allies should not join Trump’s war mol.im/a/15658861

When should UK + EU introduce an #AmericanInvoice to get USA to pay for all the support we provide for there misjudgement ( #IranWar‌ ) and the consequences of it in the energy markets? Trump is always first to demand we pay for American help and support. #PotKettleBlack

Some corrections: You inherited 2% inflation. It doubled in 12 months after you became Chancellor. It is still 50% above the rate you inherited and 50% above target. It should fall to target 2% this summer. So two years to get back to where you started! What’s to boast about that? Interest rates have been falling everywhere. UK cuts, which you don’t control, have been fewer and smaller because of your inflation record. We still have highest interest rate in G7. The Bank has made some cuts for the simple reason the economy is flat on its back. Well done. Borrowing is slowly falling from a very high base. Almost six years after the pandemic-induced recession, we’re still borrowing around 4% GDP. And borrowing costs are the highest in the G7. Retail sales are up in recent months. We’ll see how long that’s sustained. But the hospitality and construction industries are in crisis. Plus our massive services sector is stagnant. UK fastest G7 economy? That’s simply a bare-faced lie. We grew by 0.1% in Q3 2025; and another 0.1% in Q4. End of.

Trump spent years saying “China’s paying the tariffs,” now his Treasury admits it’s Costco and American companies who get the refunds. The tariffs were a secret tax on Americans all along. “Because of that, you’re not paying for those tariffs. China’s paying for those tariffs.”

Spot on. If @Nigel_Farage and @reformparty_uk fabricate threats to oust #RupertLowe cry 'false reporting' when the smear backfires—the @metpoliceuk should absolutely investigate them for perverting justice and wasting police time. 🐍

You slandered and defamed a guy, his reputation and legacy... the day after he is assasination engaging in civil debate in public as a way of communicating with one another of views and alt opinions. I hope his family sues you for everything you have.

This could be his finest speech, wow finally a serious man and statesman.

OK #Geordies #nickwoltemade is signing... Now for #Vlahovic #Hojlund or #Endrick (#Rayan LONG SHOT) #nufc #NUFCNews #ISAKOUT

@MrBeast My mom

If I offered you $1,000,000 but you only keep it if the first person you call answers, who would you call?

Dear @NUFC @jamiereuben #EddieHowe Go and sign Dusan #Vlahovic, he is for sale and looking for a move and would love to come to the #PremierLeague. Then go get one or two of #nkunku #NickWoltemade #Endrick #Hojlund #Greenwood #Samu #Rayan #Franciso and the attack is sorted.

@BarackObama ... my bad, I think you mean this one

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

@BarackObama ... or this one

@BarackObama Like this one...

A lying war criminal writes. Also a slow learner. I left the BBC five years ago with no regrets and remain in good relations with the BBC, though I have moved on to many other things. I’m enjoying life. Unlike Campbell, who continues in his bitter ‘lying bastard’ default position.

@elonmusk Elon, a challenge for you, DM me if you accept.

@atensnut What I am supposed to be seeing I do not understand, and that is 15 miutes of life I ain't getting back.

This is wild. Took me a minute.

@graeme_cave Maybe so, but have you ever thought about the terminology used. Pedo Gangs explicitly states the specifics of these people, they targeted children, minors, they are Pedophiles.

@PoliticalPig And as far as I am concerned, everyone who voted against a full enquiry is part of the problem and an enabler, everyone who helped cover the crime up and I mean everyone deserves Prison time

Have you ever took a moment, a real pause in your day (do it now), and considered the term "Grooming Gang" whilst this is horrid it is almost whitewashing the crime. They are actually PEDO GANG's - they abuse minors, underaged girls. Grooming gang lacks impact of the crime.
