Good question from BBC Nugent. Badenoch collapsed to the atomic level. #UKPolitics

Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

President urges Iran to start peace negotiations by releasing non-existent, AI-generated women some rando posted about on X

Does this also mean if they do want it they have to pay for it themselves?

Secretary of War Pete Hegs... # © • 39m The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine requirement, effective immediately.

Make this make sense.

Fixed it for him

Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself"

🤷🏼

...This is also very significant - Robbins suggests Starmer did NOT mislead the House of Commons about Mandelson's vetting process - which would explain why he did not feel it necessary to inform Downing St/Foreign Secretary/Cabinet Secretary etc about what he knew about UKSV's concerns

As we can now see. I kind of understand them thing it though (before we knew he’d sold secrets to Epstein though, if they knew that - which it appears they didn’t - that would be unforgivable)

I mean usually if Trump says he likes someone it’s because he feels he’s getting exactly what he wants and/or feels he can control them

But couldn’t the fact the Whitehouse have wanted to keep her been an issue? It could mean they felt they were getting what they needed, doesn’t mean we were. (I’m not saying this is the case, just asking)

They picked a slimeball to deal with a slimeball. Just as you might pick someone who can speak French to be the French ambassador, you pick someone fluent in sleaze to deal with the world’s sleaziest human.

Yes! I am infuriated that the media is pretending not to understand this! He was appointed *because* he was part of the Epstein Class, not because they didn't realise that!

It was a strategy. Not a good one, in the end, but honestly I think it was worth a try.

Oh dear, I bet this thread is a little frustrating then. But the carbon those of us with panels save does help us all (thats not your point I know but hopefully softens it a little for you 😬😬🤞)

I’m am definitely in that camp 🙋‍♀️☀️

I don’t think I’ll ever tire of it, it’s a little daily joy when you can see the difference it’s making (to our finances but also the planet)

We all know why he did it, because of Trump. Not for personal gain, not for money but because he thought this would help the country, i.e. help us all.

Totally different from May solving a party problem with Johnson or Johnson getting God know’s what for Lebedev’s peerage (both failed vetting)

It’s wonderful isn’t it. Right now my washing is on & it’s all free! Plus my battery is already 60% full. I flipping love it and am obsessed with my solar app, timing everything to be as efficient as possible. Tracking it all still makes me so happy (installation was 2021!)

Robbins does at least corroborate PM's claim that no minister was told of the vetting issue with Mandelson. He confirms he did not share it with them.

Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) * ... @magyarpeterMP Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then - on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office.

Hungary’s Péter Magyar issues an ultimatum.

Impractical and also cruel, given this figures includes people who have been granted asylum and therefore presumably have gone on to get jobs and generally to lay down roots here which they were absolutely entitled to do.

Reform pledges 400,000 deportations, which is easy to do when you don't know what money is It's no wonder that the Lib Dems have already branded Reform's pledge an "impractical farce" - much like everything Farage does

It’s important to remember that the goal of lawsuits like the one brought by Kash Patel against the Atlantic isn’t to win, it’s to cost the Atlantic as much money as possible only to drop the suit before discovery, and as red meat for the MAGA base by simply filing it.

Billions of people will celebrate this asshole's death.

30 people made the decision to award the Palantir contract.

@unison.org.uk represent 1.3m people and the BMA all doctors.

It's time the Labour government cleared up Tory mess and remove Palantir from NHS.

I just think if the government was to become this unpopular this quickly, they might as well have done it by increasing taxes on median+ earners.
