On stack I’ve the a short article out Trump’s religious self-portraits online, “Jesus Christ! That’s Donald Trump”. chiltonpaul.substack.com/p/jesus-chri...
An utter disgrace that Starmer has encouraged a state visit to Trump. There is NO special relationship. This is political folly. Trump will predictably exploit it for dangerous and anti-democratic purposes. Credit to the Lib Dem’s for their immediate rejection of this disgraceful proposal.
@stephenpihlaja.bsky.social Hi Stephen! I follow your posts with great interest Just wanted to let you and anyone else might read this that on Substack I’ve posted a piece that includes some thoughts on the role of religion in Trump’s war…
Drax Power Station is the UK's biggest carbon polluter. Now it wants to build a data centre - potentially powered by burning trees. I've emailed North Yorkshire Council demanding a full environmental assessment. You can too: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/dr...
When will most politicians and most of the media stop talking as if Trump is a rational actor? When will American democrats find a viable and constitutional way to remove this mentally disabled president?
Trump is certainly a liar but even more concerning: he seems to believe his own lies. This means the US is led by a delusional man with whom there is no reasoning.
Trump has a narcissist need to be the greatest president “ever seen in the history of the world”, to use one of his favourite phrases. Plus his fear of humiliation in the coming midterm elections. For more see: chiltonpaul.substack.com/p/turnaround...
Trump’s war is illegal under the US constitution. This cannot be a just war. It is not a defensive war. So why did he start it? As usual he’s motivated by his pathological personality.
So why exactly has Trump launched this war on Iran? I have written about this in an article just published on Substack:

I've just emailed "Write To Your MP: Make the National Commission on Electoral Reform Real" - Will you support the campaign too? actionstorm.org/petitions/wr... @OpenBritainHQ
Phew! Massive sigh of relief. Huge congrats to Hannah Spencer and the Greens. Mad fascist Matt Goodwin has frightened enough decent people in Gorton & Denton to hold back Reform— for now .
Vote Labour to let Matt Goodwin win?!
Maybe, but in Gorton and Denton by electron Greens are our best hope against Reform’s Matt Goodwin getting in.
Nothing…well, there is one thing: racist authoritarianism.
Matt Goodwin is an ultra-right anti-democrat, with fascistic tendencies. Pathologically ambitious. Even if beaten he’ll not disappear.
I've just signed "Back the National Commission Amendment" - Will you support the campaign too? actionstorm.org/petitions/nc... @OpenBritainHQ
Trump is visibly in mental and physical decline, he is losing his wits, cannot speak coherently without a script, wildly spouting impossible claims. When he goes, what happens next? Even worse with Vance and Miller?
Do not fall for Rubio trying to sweet-talk Europe on behalf of his Leader. His Munich speech is about getting Europe to accept “American values” the way MAGA defines them. It’s built on the false claim of “civilisational erasure”. It’s a threat to Europe’s values.
In the Gorton and Denton by-election, Candidate Matt Goodwin is a danger to this diverse community. He’s a fanatic with personal ambitions. He’s a threat to democracy. He’s not an academic, though often described as such. He’s abandoned reason and evidence, parroting Leader Farage.

I just signed this petition calling for better cooperation with the EU on the environment. Will you add your name, too? www.europeanmovement.co.uk/uk-eu-enviro...
I just signed a petition calling for an urgent investigation into Peter Mandelson's dealings with Palantir. Did he use his position as UK Ambassador to benefit the US spy tech firm? Sign now: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/ma...
If/when Trump destroys democratic elections half or more of Americans will or should be on the streets. Then civil war would be in sight. Let’s hope peaceful protest will prevent that.
It is now abundantly clear Americans are e with fascist characteristics. Demolishing democratic elections. Racist deportations. Pursuit of “enemies within”. Censorship. And more.
So Trump wants the Republicans to “take over” elections and “nationalise” them. Sounds like nazify them to me.
His David speech was basically aggressive. That will go away. As he spoke his violent gang were busy brutalising his own citizens. When he got home they shot a man ten times at close range.
