“The Brexiter insistence that the EU was irrelevant to UK security, which they claimed was entirely catered for by a US-led NATO, which was always ill-informed, is now exposed as the greatest strategic miscalculation in modern British history. “
Making sense of the madness. New post on my Brexit & Brexitism Blog. Analysis of the international and domestic implications of the ‘Greenland crisis’, including how the ‘Carney doctrine’ could offer a way forward for post-Brexit Britain: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2026/01/maki...

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

The same people who said that the mass murder of children in schools was a sad but necessary price to enable citizens to bear arms and oppose tyranny are now saying that if you carry a gun it’s your fault if you’re murdered.

Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

😰 Trump has no control!! Heads of state rely on confidentiality to negotiate, explore options, and avoid embarrassing each other publicly. By broadcasting Emmanuel Macron’s private message, Donald Trump has signalled to the world that private conversations with him are not really private. ERROR!!!

ROGAN: They said they released them, but what did they release?
OTHER GUY: They're still not out yet. It feels like everything else has been drowned out by Somalians and the ICE shooting. It feels like Epstein is completely drowned out
ROGAN: I think some of that is on purpose

No. Don't push for stronger UK ties with the EU because Trump is a narcissistic thin skinned bully increasingly showing signs of dementia.
Making anything long term about him isn't right. Got to be a decision about the UK being an integral part of Europe.

If you “inadvertently” broke the speed limit 17 times your’d be in prison
17 times is intentional not accidental
Fun fact — the Commissioner for Standards for HOP is paid approx £128,000 a yr for seemingly looking the other way❗️😡
