David Dimbleby criticises King Charles's decision to appease President Trump on a state visit after illegally attacking Iran,
"Bad political moment to send him the present of the King"
"And a state banquet while he's bombing the hell out of Iran?"
"And people are dying all over the Middle East?"
Ed Davey, "I'm afraid, we shouldn't be rewarding Donald Trump with this state visit"
"Truth is, Trump has insulted our country, insulted our troops, undermined our economy with tariffs, and this illegal war with Iran which is putting up people's petrol prices, energy bills and mortgage costs"
Today your water bill is rising again, after a 26% hike last year on average.
This is because the regulator is allowing extractive private companies to rinse the public.
In Parliament I'm calling to end the failed experiment of water privatisation. Time for public ownership.
Starmer: it is "increasingly clear" that the UK's "long-term national interest requires closer partnership with our allies in Europe and with the European Union".
The opportunities to "strengthen our security and cut the cost of living" are "simply too big to ignore".
Starmer announces a new summit with EU partners to develop closer ties. “A partnership for the dangerous world we must navigate together.”
China billionaire owner of Northumbrian Water wants to bid for Thames Water.
NW has 50+ criminal convictions, dumps sewage in rivers, fleeces customers.
90% of England's water is foreign owned.
More of the same can't solve problems.
Must end privatisation. Must nationalise.
A photo of the front cover of issue 1672 of Private Eye magazine, with the caption “on shelves now.” The main headline reads “TRUMP’S EASTER MESSAGE OF HOPE.” The central image shows Donald Trump seated at a table beside US defence secretary Pete Hegseth with US flags behind them. Speech bubbles add dialogue: Trump says, “I’ve got a brilliant plan for the war,” Hegseth replies, “What is it?”, and Trump answers, “I’m going to blame you!”
Trump’s Easter message of hope
The new Private Eye is out now.
King Charles’s state visit to US will be ‘humiliation’ amid Iran war.
Cancel the visit.
It is part of appeasement of a crazed felon who doesn't respect international law.
Must work with the EU. Abandon dollarisation of trade, which gives US a cut from every trade. Trade in local currencies.
NATO is a defence alliance to ensure support if a member is attacked, not a gang who agree to join in if one idiot launches an illegal and unplanned attack on another country. Everyone knows this except the most powerful man in the world.
It’s insane watching the bulletins and headlines rolling in about a global energy crisis worse than the 1970s and not a single one mentions it’s all been caused by one crazy man for no reason.
When Trump finally goes reputations will have been trashed and they’re irrecoverable.

The sun starts to rise towards mid-archway now as we head towards Summer. The first one I have had this year as it was so quiet up there this morning. Taken in St Michael's tower on Glastonbury Tor.

The perfect response to the rage baiting, sore losers, Reform UK
Media should stop pandering to every bit of nonsense, distraction and lies, Reform UK out out.
Interesting point made by pollster Luke Tryl on one of the Gorton&Denton by-election debates: he’s picking up voters trying to choose between Reform and the Greens.
Something I’ve written about before. It’s not right-left. Some voters just want radical change because things aren’t working for them.

If someone had told me ten years ago that in 2026, there could be evidence of the president raping and threatening to kill children, and he would *still* be allowed to stay in office, I would have politely asked them to put down the meth pipe.
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
More relevant than ever.
