Russian state TV presenter Sergei Karnaukhov confirmed that the attack on Romania was not accidental. He called for missile attacks on Poland and Romania, and stated that NATO would be intimidated and would be unable to respond to Russia.

Sunny afternoon out on the doorstep yesterday with Labour team campaigning for Andy Burnham in Makerfield.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer: “I will do everything to protect Muslims and route out Islamophobia with every last breath I have.”

I’m so sick of this government that I can’t put it into words. It is no wonder that increasing numbers of people believe there is a deliberate agenda to dismantle and displace the way of life of the British nation as handed down to us as our heritage by our forefathers.

Wake up, Europe. You have exactly two choices: America’s tech stack or China’s. You cannot build your own. You cannot complete anything at scale. All you do is pass legislation, issue fines, write stern letters of concern, and hold press conferences about “digital sovereignty” while your cloud infrastructure, AI models, semiconductors, and platforms remain overwhelmingly dependent on foreign technology. Pretending you’ll magically “build European champions” by taxing, fining, and hamstringing the only people who actually ship product at global scale is delusional. Decades of evidence prove it. Brain drain continues. Investment gaps widen. We know what the data says: Europe lags behind in AI, cloud, semiconductors, and consumer platforms because of the regulatory moat you build and maintain around mediocrity. So you can push for sovereignty but it will not materialize because you’re unwilling to do what it takes to get there.
