He really believes that women should know their place. Btw, Switzerland has no Prime Minister and the President is not a woman. But apart from that… #r4today #Tariffs
Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

Obviously “some senior managers” report a “toxic culture” at the #Coop

It was inevitable. Members voted to boycott products from #Israel

When the Coop wanted me to vote for directors, they blocked my attempts to ask candidates if the supported

“Man mistreats girlfriend; uses #WinterOlympics medal interview to humiliate her and exert #CoerciveControl, rallying the public to put pressure on her to resume the abusive relationship”

What a heartwarming human interest story to simper over in the run-up to #SaintValentinesDay.

“I not walk away from a mandate to change the country”

#UK is now #complicit in #Genocide, the government in the pocket of a wanted #WarCriminal, and we are known as a nation that gives top jobs to #paedophile apologists

Job done.

The country IS changed.

Step down, Mr #Starmer.

An elderly #US woman goes missing. Family say they will pay a #ransom, despite the risk of encouraging #kidnappings

A #Norwegian treats a woman badly; uses #TV to harass her in public

The connection? #BBCNews #R4Today, #R4PM treat them as fun, human interest stories

Humanity is doomed.

“Elspeth told us, and we passed it to other #journalists …”

This is why the privileged and powerful are never held to account. Everybody tells journalists ; nobody tells the #police.

“How many people watching the #WinterOlympics really know what’s going on?”

Is this a problem?

People watch incomprehensible garbage “because it’s on”, rather than pick up a book, go for a walk, potter around garden, learn a new skill …

#BBC loves the mindless; wants to keep you ignorant.

#Farage is terrified of #WorkingFromHome in case it means he has to go to #Clacton (or admit who REALLY bought his house).
Nigel Farage wants to end working from home & work–life balance, but who benefits?

When you add more hours at the office, you don’t magically create more time. Something has to give: sleep gets cut, household chores get delayed, family time disappears.

This week Israel has passed sweeping new measures to further annex the occupied West Bank. The UK govt has responded: "Any attempt to alter the geographic or demographic make up of Palestine is wholly unacceptable"

Israel is doing it & the UK govt refuses to take any action.

“Challenge to #Starmer: over, or just postponed?”

“Postponed”

“Until when?”

This would have fit perfectly into #TheDayToday; idiot question, idiot answer, idiot dead end.

“Keir Starmer has talked about growth, ID cards, law & order, the #NHS … What’s it really all about?”

Grow up, Nick f’ing Robinson, government is about more than one thing.

It can’t ALL be about handing power (and taxpayer money) to white AngloSaxon Protestants, as you might prefer.

Is there a formula for allocation of #ThoughtForTheDay slots?

Is it linked to religious and philosophical belief in UK?

Is there balance between, say, pro- and anti- #ChildAbuse, for and against #Genocide?

Is it as unquestionably balanced as #QuestionTime?

We are told that paying ransoms encourages other kidnappers.

Why focus on the alleged kidnapping of a relative of a foreign TV person who means nothing to the vast majority in UK?

Do you WANT Emma Barnett’s dad, Nick Ribinson’s mum #Taken?

#NotMyKing Charles, serial befriended and defender of paedophiles, has “profound concerns about the continuing allegations about his brother’s conduct”.

Not about the conduct, just about the continuing allegations.
