That might’ve been fun but knowing the organisational abilities of that government, it might’ve turned out like this: youtu.be/sDsn-RRmDXU?...

Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey said a scheduled visit by King Charles to the US should be called off.

AND SO SAY ALL OF US!

Targeting the water supply of a populous water-scarce country to trigger a refugee tsunami with a view to boosting the far right in Europe is exactly the kind of evil plan Stephen Miller might come up with, by the way.

... and thanks to First Past The Post, Farage could be Prime Minister on only 30% of the vote. We need electoral reform.

β€˜We deserve to know the truth’: 11 questions about US bases in Britain From where they are exactly to the laws governing them, here’s what we need to know to hold the UK government accountable for Trump's use of British bases

The US has 100s of intelligence personnel in our country but UK governments put a blanket ban on information about what they’re doing.

Governments privilege US military secrecy over our right to know.

Why is there not more consternation about this?

SKS has always been clear about the justification for war.
If you support his stance, if you do not believe Trump is fighting a β€˜Holy War in Jesus’ nameβ€˜, if you do not think Blair and Farage are true British heroes, PLEASE email SKS office/ your MP to express your support.

If only the media would grill his uncosted ideas like they did Labour’s (and others’) costed plans… but they’re mostly complicit

He’s a tetchy little fucker, who can’t cope if people scrutinise him. That needs to be picked at a lot more

Morning Kaci!
But they kinda did, in similar ways to how we helped with Vietnam - use of fuel bowsers at wideawake etc - but they couldn’t be seen to be helping. But I think that was more down to Caspar Weinberger than anything else

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

This is one of those things I try to bring up when people want to demolish the BBC. Like, I get it, change is needed but I'm not sure people realise just how much it will change the TV landscape if it's gone. Or how much soft power is in the sort of shows that would never get made otherwise.

Spot on. It’s like the NHS: people rightly complain when it’s slow or you can’t get an appointment but when it’s gone people will be reminded why it was actually quite good.
Sort the BBC board out, fix BBC News and the rest will follow.
