How many MAGA would even know? I'm guessing 0.

Just had more Reform UK PLC propaganda so it's going back via their freepost address with the comment to "Go fuck yourselves!"

Why an Orbán loss would be a huge win for the EU - and disastrous for Putin and MAGA It's hard to understate how much vast geopolitics hinges on an election in a country with a population of only 9.6M

💥 This piece that I published on Sat has now shot up in relevance, thankfully!

Pls read the bits about:
- the importance of the 2/3 majority
- the frozen €20B EU funds that can now be released
- the €90B that can now go to Ukraine
- how this blows Trump’s National Security Strategy

Mapped: The Reform-Orbán Network “Viktor Orbán is the strongest leader in Europe and the EU’s biggest nightmare.” These were the words posted on Twitter by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage about the prime minister of Hungary in April 20...

“It’s deeply shocking that Reform has developed such close ties with Orbán’s regime, an authoritarian govt with an appalling record of rolling back democracy and civic rights”

Where ‘deeply shocking’ = entirely on brand.
Hungary shows us we must never give them power.

The Artemis II, 10 day round trip to the dark side of the moon is estimated to have cost £90 billion. Seems a bit silly really when, for an extra couple of grand, they could have had 2 weeks at Centre Parks…

What we can learn from Hungary: big election turnouts are the best way to defeat populist right wing parties.

Lots of work stuff to do this week. I’ll be as busy as a Budapest document shredder.

Who leaked this Number 10 discussion to Jeffrey Epstein? And are there consequences for the leaker?

It’s an internal discussion re. getting markets moving in the aftermath of the financial crisis. No doubt of great interest to Epstein and his financial market clients.

Hi James, can you please 🙏 have a phone in on this?

South Africa has voted against Russia at the UN,supporting a resolution calling for the return of Ukrainian children who were forcibly taken or unlawfully held by Russia since 2014.

If only our vox pops had been like that, rather than the outpourings of ignorant nonsense (like the ‘now we can make our own laws’ bollox) that we were regularly subjected to.

Good morning, James. Below is a screenshot of food thrown away by supermarkets that could be donated. There's something to do with a tax break involved, I believe. Is there anything about this you could bring to the attention of the listeners, especially at this time of year?

Watching Wes Streeting on Sky News successfully skewer the overnight Downing Street briefings against him, you almost have to admire the ineptitude of those around Keir Starmer in turning his own leadership problems into a major story while boosting the very politician they sought to kneecap

Be fun if the BBC chose to counter sue Trump for £1bn also for defrauding the public

Elon Musk and his promises

In 2016, Musk said a “meaningful number of people” could reach Mars in 10 years (by 2026)

More specifically he predicated SpaceX would be able to launch people in 2024 with arrival in 2025

Just sayin’

HE STILL WON!

Good luck in the #elections today USA 🇺🇸
You know what needs to be done. 😂

Just had a lovely woman in our shop in Donegal, searching for her lost twin sister. Appreciate it if my Irish followers would retweet this. Thank you.

Hi Sarah. It's well established by now that Reform and Farage are only around to sow chaos, lies, hate and division. Their whole and single MO is to destabilise our country.

Nige is no longer laughing at himself as he ‘performs’ yet another big speech | John Crace Reform leader is trying to make it as a mainstream politician – which involves contradicting himself and gaslighting voters

“His main theme was that the country was fucked. Largely because of Brexit. Weirdly, he has no memory of being the main architect behind the Brexit vote. He seems to think it happened in a world in which he played no part.”

Farage - the foghorn of failure.
