UK retaining BIOT and the yanks getting the boot would honestly be the best outcome of the Chagos farce

We should be reviewing US bases in UK territories. Including Chagos.

@DaveRoetman @Independent The US is nothing but a haven of cowards and traitors, built on a history of ingratitude.
The less seen or heard of them, the better.

@Independent Dear British friends,
Weakness and decline were a choice. It is not too late, but you need to grows some balls.
Argentina finally came out of their Peronist stupor and is going places. You can too.

‘How dare they!’: Ex-military chief brands Trump’s Falklands threat an ‘insult’ trib.al/r2YOp1E
English
@JonBAnthony11 @LBC @SimonWestonCBE That would be the war the Ukrainians are fighting, against Trump's best pal
English
@LBC @SimonWestonCBE He looks amazing...
But seems to have forgotten, as have 90pc of the brainwashed legacy media consumers, that this is a war against the worst regime since the nazis.

‘The so-called leader of the free world is having a hissy fit because nobody wanted to join his war.’
Former Falklands War Welsh Guardsman @SimonWestonCBE says Trump shouldn't use the islanders' freedom as a bargaining chip.
English
English
@LBC @SimonWestonCBE He is merely reminding them and the world to review how the UK reclaimed the Falkands in the first place...without US support it didn't happen.

We have no special relationship with this country, we never have, and we never will.
Even during Reagan, we received basically zero assistance during the Falklands War, something Thatcher was deeply hurt by.
Britain's future lies with the Commonwealth and Europe

Lib Dems: 8 of the top 10 for recycling in England.
Greens: Their only majority council ranks 162nd
Talk is cheap. Recycling rates aren't.

Leafletting in Llanbadarn; canvassing on the Waun; more work with the team in Borth alongside Sandra Jervis, Lead Lib Dem candidate for Ceredigion Penfro. And at the end of the day a catch-up on the beach.

“Our manifesto is about an aspiration, is about our ambition”
Welsh Liberal Democrat Jane Dodds says “public services are really up against it”, and wants to see more money for social care, which is currently an “absolute scandal”, to help the NHS

Has anyone noticed that wherever JD Vance goes, he just makes a mess.
In Munich he insulted European allies. In Greenland he turned everyone against Trump. And now he’s helped Viktor Orbán lose re-election.
Maybe better to spend more time on the couch @VP?

@HiddenYorkshire 'A Few Bloody Noses' by Robert Harvey is also very good and addresses US founding myths with some pretty solid evidence.

Ken Burns' series is really good. Some people don't like it bc they think it's "woke" (Ken Burns? Really?), but that's only bc it actually examines the traditional, The Patriot narratives around the revolution. Ken Burns is probably the most patriotic yet honest American filmmaker.

I'm currently researching the Revolution and it shocked me how the pop culture knowledge is just "taxes and the tea party". The 1763 Royal Proclamation (which forbade settlement beyond the Appalachians and was a major tension bc how dare the British tell us not to settle on Native lands) is basically left out of the narrative. It's even worse in the UK.
Boris Ryvkin@BRyvkin
The knowledge gap in the U.S. when it comes to pre-independence American history stretching from 1607 to 1775 is pretty extraordinary. It’s treated more or less like a black hole with the occasional mention of Jamestown, the Mayflower, the Salem Witch Trials, and maybe a passing reference to the French and Indian War (almost always tying it to the American Revolution). 168 years of American history which is almost entirely absent from our popular culture outside of professional historians and enthusiasts. I’ve always been troubled by that. This period is worth rediscovering.

An assured performance from @DoddsJane on tonight’s BBC Wales Your Questions debate. An excellent format. The Welsh Liberal Democrats are the only party prepared to give honest answers to the questions people have about Wales’ future.

Remember US soldiers, sailors and airmen: you do not have to follow illegal orders.
In fact, if you do follow them you will not be protected from charges of war crimes - you will be complicit.
