The Trump administration issued a new license allowing countries to temporarily purchase certain Russian oil products, the same day Brent crude prices settled above $100 per barrel for the first time since August 2022 as the war with Iran drags on. cnn.it/3NCOgFv

@KemiBadenoch Seriously? But you’re the one who’s advocating that we should have Trump tickling our tummy.

What we need is a Government that is very clear about our defence and our national interest. Labour are political pygmies playing student union politics. Britain should lead, defend our interests, and stand strong. Keir Starmer doesn’t have the backbone. Conservatives do🇬🇧👇

@TiceRichard Late to a war? This from Trump is way off the irony-ometer scale. But, hey Dick, you just go on rooting for your favourite orange war criminal, eh?

Starmer has utterly humiliated the UK in the eyes of our long standing allies The international community is aghast how far we have fallen and that we cannot be relied upon Starmer and Labour are unfit to govern

@williamnhutton So Labour voters voted tactically… that doesn’t seem an unambiguous disaster for Labour if their constituency is still there. It certainly seems a victory for progressives… and (while the media doesn’t seem to have clocked this) a defeat for the hard right.

Phenomenal result for the Greens in Gorton and Denton which even they did not anticipate. The British have learned how to vote tactically which is bad news for Reform. Labour? Unambiguously a disaster.

I’m bemused by media coverage of the by-election this morning. (Hello, @BBC.) The electorate did the smart thing & voted tactically to keep Reform out. Yet the coverage is all about how disastrous the result is for one of the progressive parties whose voters did the smart thing.

@pcfc1906 I swear the last words he said to me in that corner before he kicked it were: ‘With this wind this could go straight in!’
