#R4Today #McCann The base problem with #PrintJornalism is that each paper writes stories with a slant that appeals to their readership. News becomes an elastic commodity that can be shaped to fit in with readers' prejudices, and to sell papers rather than to inform

However hard #Trump may try to force #Ukraine to give in to #Putin #Zelensky and co must be aware of the #Palestine example - once you allow your country to be occupied, it becomes impossible to win back your independence. BTW #Trump is on the wrong side of that war too.

#R4Today The big lesson the world must draw from #Trump is: NEVER appoint a real estate hustler to ANY position in government

#R4Today If #Trump had been #President in 1939, would he have buddied up to #Hitler?

#R4Today #USSecurityStrategy #Europe has to decide whether this policy will die when #Trump is gone. If not, we need to change our affiliations to reduce our dependence and compliance with #USA and to develop other international relations / partnerships

#R4Today #Trump says that the #Ukrainian people "LOVE" his peace deal. He obviously doesn't know this - how could he? Just more #Trump boorishness - meaningless but with the intention of being harmful.

#BBCLauraK Watching #HelenWhately, I'm reminded that the #Tories used to have some authoritative politicians. If she is the best they can do, they are in even more trouble than we thought

#BBCLauraK Gosh things must be difficult for the #BBC if the only employment expert they can find is #JamesReed whose qualification is that he inherited the management of a secretarial recruitment agency

#Trump says he'll pause #migration from #3rdWorldCountries. In light of the film of #IDF murders of #Palestinians in #Jenin, how about pausing shipments of arms and ammunition to #Israel?
November 28, 2025 at 4:57 PM
#Reuters #BBCNews The murders by #Israeli soldiers in #Jenin are only unusual in that they were filmed live by #PalestineTV but they show conclusively that #Palestine cannot continue to be kept under #Occupation by #Israel because the #IDF is committing #Genocide
November 28, 2025 at 7:58 AM
#Israel is continuing to kill people in #Lebanon, #Gaza and the #PalestinianWestBank. Has #Trump not noticed that his #MiddleEastPeacePlan is being ignored by #Israel or does he not care, now that he's had his moment of adulation in #Jerusalem?

#BBCNews #Trump has chosen to play politics by preventing #SouthAfrica from attending the 2026 #G20 in #Miami. If #USA is unable or unwilling to invite all #G20 heads of state, they should not have hosting rights.

#R4Today The #Justice system needs more reform then just limiting #Juries. #Injustice has become commonplace. Courts need to allow appeals on the "Findings of fact" to allow judges' mistakes to be recognised and overturned. Until this happens, no-one can have any faith in #BritshJustice
November 26, 2025 at 8:17 AM
#R4Today #LordFalconer warns that the public will lose faith in #Justice. How can he be so uninformed - that ship sailed long ago with the deluge of injustices delivered by the courts. Just think #PostOffice, #Malkinson and many others, both in #Criminal and #Civil courts.

#R4Today The disqualification of #LandoNorris in the #LasVegas #GrandPrix sounds awfully like the #FIA interfering in favour of #Verstappen as they did so disgustingly with #LewisHamilton in #AbuDhabi in 2021

#BBCNews #Trump says #Ukraine has "zero gratitude" for US efforts. Perhaps that's because he is so obviously not interested in their wellbeing and is half heartedly involved only as a means to impress #Putin and the #Nobel committee
November 23, 2025 at 2:39 PM
The heads of state attending the #G20 declared the principle that "BORDERS MUST NOT BE CHANGED BY FORCE." They must apply that not only to to #Ukraine but also to #Palestine, where borders are constantly changed unilaterally by the actions of #IDF and #IsraeliSettlers
November 22, 2025 at 9:55 PM
#BBCNews Is the #Trump deadline to #Ukraine a ploy to distract attention from the soon-to-be-released #Epstein files?
November 21, 2025 at 6:21 PM
#BBCNews #Ukraine is better off without #Trump, who is as much a poodle for #Putin as he is for #Netanyahu
November 21, 2025 at 6:19 PM
#BBC #6PMNews #Trump is presenting #Russia's plan to colonise and disarm #Ukraine as a #PeacePlan. It's exactly what he did with #Israel's eradication of #Palestine. He's not the #Peacemaker he claims but simply a willing agent of powerful criminal tyrants #Putin, #Netanyahu and #MBS
November 21, 2025 at 6:16 PM
#Trump's peace plan for #Ukraine is identical to his plan for #Palestine - back whoever seems to be winning; bully the victims into surrender and sail off into the sunset to await #NobelPeacePrize

#Quiet,Piggy sums up the #Trump attitude to #Presidency
November 20, 2025 at 9:28 AM
Nothing sums up #Trump better than #"QUIETPIGGY".

#R4Today #Starmer #Growth #Budget. The biggest problem in #UK is that #Electricity is 4x the price in #USA and, for example #France. Spend government money on building wind and solar to slash prices for homes and to make business competitive.
