Iraq; Donald Trump’s character; his contempt for soldiers, dead or alive & the obvious necessity of having a “lawful basis” & a “viable thought-through plan” for military action…
Just a few of the things all our local neighbourhood warmongers have completely forgotten about.

🚨Gorton and Denton by-election - JUST DON’T VOTE REFORM

🚨Gorton and Denton by-election
Surely by now we can all see that Reform is a party that thrives on division, fuels anger and uses the scapegoating of minorities to gain support.
However you decide to vote please don’t fall for the politics of division offered by Reform

A tweet from Headquarters contrasting Trump’s denial of posting a video with a later statement from Leavitt saying posts on Truth Social come directly from Trump. The image shows Trump speaking to reporters on one side and a White House press briefing on the other.
The “staffer” who posted the racist video is his alter ego, John Barron.

a guy who claimed to be named John Barron and sounded a lot like Trump called into C-SPAN to complain about the Supreme Court's tariff decision and call Hakeem Jeffries "a dope"
(John Barron is a pseudonym Trump has used for himself when talking to journalists)

Man Utd owner says UK has been ‘colonised’ by immigrants | LBC
YouTube video by LBC
If you want to hear a proper analysis of Jim Ratcliffe's remarks and their current context, this is one of @mrjamesob.bsky.social's best, imo. No punches pulled: we are heading back to the 1970s at lightning speed and it is a terrible prospect.

‘Who will he blame for this?': Five Reform news stories uncovered | LBC
YouTube video by LBC
A shamefully valid exercise.
Henry Riley takes @mrjamesob.bsky.social through five poorly covered stories concerning Nigel Farage's Reform which the media would already have highlighted if it applied the same level of scrutiny to Farage’s party as it does to Labour.

Women’s curling today. BBC is showing one of their presenters having a cooking challenge to make pasta! Many people, including me, would rather see the curling!
Less commentary and chat and a lot more of the action of all the Olympic sports please!

The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible.
It leads on "sharply contested narratives"
It has a dramatic skew to the US government
It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

I’m in Davos, Switzerland, to secure new trade and investment partners for Canada.
Because Canada has what the world wants — we’re an energy superpower and a reliable trading partner, with the most educated workforce in the world.
