The audacity of Hungary's government is staggering. They are completely dependent on EU money as a major net recipient, yet they constantly undermine European security from within. We cannot keep funding a government that actively acts against our interests

Why is this like watching The Office…. He is the David Brent of presidents. You’re cringing constantly but can’t look away.

You have to admire the intricate woven tapestry that is Trump’s head. It almost matches the faux-gold filigree. Source: White House News pool feed during meeting with Japanese PM.

The IAF and USAF will be sharing a comprehensive recognised air picture and be fully integrated into each others ATO. Any claim the US wasn’t aware of that strike is of course utter bullshit. Like everything coming out from Washington.

I remain thoroughly impressed with the number of British citizens who want to see a Royal Navy warship run the SOH minefield, fight off FAC, defend against USV’s etc. It’s comforting to know in the event of conscription, we have so many hardy souls answering the call to arms /1

@jurgen_nauditt @LeilaPrelec All former USA presidents (excluding Carter) and their current one are war criminals and need to be prosecuted. When that is done, then maybe you can talk about others. Russia is fighting NATO. Alone. Listen to the Munich speech in 2007. The answers are there

This is like a bomb in Russia. Ilya Remeslo, a long-time Russian patriot, professional informer, and lawyer, suddenly launched a direct attack on Putin: Vladimir Putin is not a legitimate president. Vladimir Putin should resign and be tried as a war criminal and thief. Five reasons why I stopped supporting Vladimir Putin. Someone had to say it. 1. The war in Ukraine. The war, which began as a "police operation," has already claimed 1-2 million lives. I supported the annexation of Crimea in 2014 precisely because it was bloodless. We all thought back then that Putin was the unifier of the Russian lands. And here we are now—bloody attacks, the deception of contract workers, and much more, which any SVO participant will confirm. An absolutely hopeless war, enormous losses, it could last another 5-10 years—are you ready for that? No one is calling for war against Russia. But the war is currently being waged solely because of Putin's complexes; we ordinary citizens don't benefit from it, we only lose. And a few more points: 2. Enormous damage to the Russian economy and the well-being of its citizens. 3. Suppression of internet and media freedom. 4. Putin's term in office. 5. Putin doesn't respect his voters and refuses to listen to them. Conclusion: Vladimir Putin is not a legitimate president. Vladimir Putin should resign and be tried as a war criminal and thief.

Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.

@rebeccabutlerm2 A Barrister bereft of facts. Our No1 threat is russia, it very much is our war. The US has not “given the most”, Europe has.

Britain under @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour is no longer an ally of the United States. Thanks Keir for choosing a murderous caveman over the nation which came to our rescue whenever we were in our time of need.

@john4brexit You’re amplifying shite from the DM without looking into things properly. Why do so many people of a certain generation do this? Beats me. 🤷

One of the things the people who haven’t transited the PG also don’t mention, is the large number of disused oil and gas platforms. In 1991 these had to be cleared , often with SF from submarines. Iraqi stay behind teams with support weapons were placed to catch shipping.

@abuseofpower @AlistairCarns Disingenuous shite. Your service with the 10th Security Police Squadron is noted but it doesn’t make you an expert on the legal system or Al Carns service, which is considerably more impressive than yours.

@BettyBoochichi2 Worth reading. Both the officer and her tutor showing courage in saying they got it wrong. The fault here lies with senior leadership and the brutal cuts post 2008.

A rookie PC has apologised after she admitted making a series of blunders which left a future triple killer free to strike. Libbie-Mae Taylor was only 12 shifts into her job with Leics Police when she was called to the scene of a warehouse assault. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@BenObeseJecty @IntercityFC I’ll chime in… Most veterans see through the BS politicians spout. It takes a special kind of veteran to become a politician and start spouting the BS. Every government since options for change has let the defence of the country go to shit. You’re all the same.

HMS Dragon is now en route to the Eastern Mediterranean, but it was due to fulfil our role as the flagship for NATO’s Standing Naval Maritime Group One. Its deployment means only HMS Dauntless is left untasked, with HMS Duncan due to deploy to the High North on Operation Firecrest next month, but Dauntless is undergoing scheduled maintenance in FTSP. I asked the Defence Secretary about this earlier this week, but it wasn’t clear from his response how he will meet this commitment. The deployment of HMS Dauntless also means we will have no Type 45s in reserve, with the remaining three, Daring, Defender and Diamond, in Refit. The long-term impact of the previous Labour Government’s disastrous decisions to halve the order of T45s and the equally disastrous decision to equip them with the untested WR21 engines, which never worked reliably enough and are all being upgraded via the Power Improvement Project, have left the Royal Navy in a perilous position. #contribution-DC1B7EB2-D363-4DA0-A4FE-54DAFAAB646E" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2026-0…

Not sure why this account doesn’t have more follows. For Naval matters plus the odd riff on higher end booze and cigars, this former RN Warfare specialist knows his stuff….. for a skimmer 😉

Safe transit lane 1991. Pre-swept by MCMV but maximum speed about ten knots. Route marked with danbuoys. Outside to the right was a minefield. Two of the ships in the distance subsequently ran onto mines. Anyone gobbing off this is easy, has not done it for real.
