Royals want MPs to focus on ‘important issues’ not Prince Andrew, No 10 says

Downing Street said the Government would not allocate time for a Commons debate on Andrew’s conduct or his living arrangements.

Been back to my childhood village in Essex for a funeral.

High Street is littered with tatty flags attached to every lamp post and telegraph pole, and by God, it looks awful.

Everyone I spoke to hates them. So intimidating. Apparently- "Epping Forest council is scared of offending the nasties."

Case in point: the Iraq Inquiry, which was highly inconvenient to the project of retaining the core of the New Labour briefcase brigade and continuing to invite Tony and Alastair on TV to promote helpful schemes, so it was simply binned the following day and never mentioned again.

You've highlighted a very important point.
Whether it be the police, CSE, Iraq, Covid-19, phone hacking, etc, you get an inquiry to give the semblance of redress, but it's a ruse, noone important receives the punishment that is due, and people wonder why Britain is so sick.

Keir Starmer finally comes out fighting ...

Keir Starmer has finally come out fighting, but not in the interests of ordinary British people. Instead he's intent on sticking up for violent, racist, Israeli football thugs!

"If you’re a bunch of racist Israeli football hooligans who want to travel to the UK for sport - the British government will fund your security when the police say it’s unsafe for you to come. It will approve your visa"

"But if you’re an 11 year old table tennis prodigy from Iran ...."

Also, if Bluesky doesn't decentralize by completely mirroring infrastructure somewhere in the EU, we might just wake up one day to find that Trump has directed the FBI to seize control of it all, under the guise of Bluesky is an Antifa platform, or some other crazy bs.

Don't rule anything out.

The GOP-led Congress has been out of session for too long. The House is not shut down. They’re getting paid and should be working.

A tweet from Tim Walz reads: “18,000 Minnesota federal employees are facing unemployment while you’re sitting on your ass. Get back to Washington.” It quotes a tweet from Pete Stauber that says: “No better way to end a beautiful weekend in Northern Minnesota!” with an attached photo showing a cozy outdoor fire pit surrounded by chairs, wood stacks, and string lights at sunset.

‘The threat couldn’t be more urgent and imminent. Yet here we are, still putting our head in the sand.’

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social says it’s ‘peculiar’ that the case of Farage ally Nathan Gill admitting to making pro-Russia speeches for cash isn’t being followed more closely.

How about some clarification regarding the interview of the fake Aston Villa supporter claiming that he received death threats? Andrew Fox is not Jewish neither is he the honorary head of the Jewish AVFC fan club. He's a far-right propagandist and Palestinian genocide denier. #SkyNews #FakeNews

Can we expect a similar apology from each of the outraged politicians who sought to make political capital out of their "I support Israeli hooligans more than I support the police" claptrap?

A Washington Post poll has found that 61% of US Jews believe Israel has committed war crimes in Gaza, and 39% say it is committing genocide. Among the broader American public, 45% told the Brookings Institution they believe Israel is committing genocide.

Donald Trump and JD Vance should never have been welcome in Scotland.

They've shown complete contempt for human rights and international law, encouraged ethnic cleansing, and worked tirelessly to undermine democracy.

Appeasement never has and never will work.
