OTD in 1994 The Budapest Memorandum was signed. It remains the most spectacular waste of paper, ink, and geopolitical optimism in the history of humankind.

​The deal was simple: Ukraine disarms. Russia, the UK, and the USA promised, in return, to guarantee our security and territorial integrity.

Our economic woes are caused by Brexit, (Ukraine), Covid, Brexit’s ugly baby - our dismal immigration policy, Truss budget, 14yrs of austerity…
All rightwing policies.
Quite mad that our media acts as if Labour’s budget is the end of days, when they failed to adequately scrutinise any of

If, like me, you've always opposed Brexit, this article is a must read.
Brexit.

Ten years have passed. Arguments raged. Our economic issues were due to global shocks.

But no, new data shows UK falling behind 33 comparable countries.

We took back control - straight into a self inflicted economic slowdown.

Boris Johnson killing 23,000 people during Covid should be the only story for the next month.

Are you watching @danaldridgemp.bsky.social please please take note.
Nigel Farage is actually quoted as saying that the Home Secretary ‘sounds like a Reform supporter’ with these horrible policies. She probably thinks that’s a good thing - most right minded people think it’s a disgrace.
Just wilful performative cruelty that is entirely out of step with the majority of British people.

How many Labour MPs got into politics in order to vote for stealing jewellery off of people seeking refuge from war and persecution?

This is a terrific thread showing precisely why our media (all of it imo) cannot be trusted.
I was tagged and asked to take a look at this claim - cos, well just look at it!🙄

Does it seem plausible that THE Trocadero is going to be turned into a Mosque?

It was pretty easy to debunk but I decided to do a deep dive into the reality AND the appalling press coverage

Labour within 18 months have laid waste to the values they once stood for.

The good will and extensive political capital they were granted have been burned through, faster than their beloved aviation fuel.

All that remains now is a shell of deluded loyalists trying to defend the indefensible.
