This is unbelievable. Chris Mason reporting on the Farage £5m donation and doesn't mention the rule that new MPs must report all donations in the 12 months prior to being elected. Unbelievable.

Farage received £5m from donor before he became MP bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… Why? Because he needs security & the home office refused to pay for it. Somehow the BBC fails to mention this in the headline. They make it look like the money was pocketed. Disgraceful.

The Golders Green attack is sickening. The Jewish community is being attacked now in a way this country has not seen for decades - perhaps centuries. What is the useless Sadiq Khan doing? What is the government doing? Their apathy is disgraceful.

I wish somebody would just give me, with no strings attached £5 million.

@Hepworthclare They clapped on both sides but I doubt many actually knew what he said & indeed the subtle nuances he gave out were outstanding, I have seen report that some were offended about the lessons he alluded too. Trump always lies anyway

@Dougmacd9826 I think the King was so subtle - it will have gone over Trump's head. The reports of conversations he claims to have had are certainly his "take" on KC3'S views on NATO, Iran and Ukraine - he would suggest align with his view and not that of the UK Govt.

And so it begins - as we knew it would. President Trump's "take" on conversations he's has with the King - regarding Iran and Ukraine. #BBCnews According to Trump, the King's view is US recomendations should have been followed. A flight of fancy from a fantasist.

@HarleyShah Why do MP need to be subsidised at all for food & drink, all at cheap rates. People in care homes & hospitals do not get this level. Its a scam

I don’t want a city on Mars. I don’t want AI in every app. I don’t want data centres in space. I don’t want humanoids or flying cars. I want clean water. I want a stable climate. I want bees to survive. And a habitable planet.

Trump lying about what the King had said was always going to happen, he was always going to lie to undermine Starmer. Its how He operates & everyone would know that. Not a shocker media outlets

President Trump, "Last fall, Melania and I had the pleasure of visiting their Majesties at Windsor Castle, a structure that's so beautiful and so long that it never seemed to end" "I, uh, looked down as a former real estate person, and it just went on forever" "And it was built by a gentleman named William the Conqueror in the year 1070" "And I asked the king, I said, was he a nice man, William the Conqueror?" "He said, I tend to doubt it. I don't think so" "When they call you William the Conqueror, generally speaking, you're not going to be too nice. But he must have been something, because it was nothing like I've ever seen Windsor Castle" "But, uh, tonight, in return, we are really doing something that's very special. Preparing to celebrate the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence. A big time in our country. Very big time"

@chrisshipitv I think there was a lot of gritted smiles, they may clap but I bet they did not like a history lesson with facts, they want to make up their own history it plays to the cult better

He did it politely and diplomatically but King Charles just reminded Congress: • NATO was there for USA after 9/11 • British Troops did fight in Afghanistan • Ukraine needs our help now • executive power must be subject to checks & balances • ice-caps are melting • America’s natural wonders need protecting

King Charles reminds Trump and MAGA that NATO invoked Article 5 for the first time after 9/11, when all alliance members came to the aid of the United States. “Today, Mr. Speaker, that same unyielding resolve is needed for the defense of Ukraine and her most courageous people,” the king said, receiving a standing ovation🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇦
