Just nine arrests at the Unite the Kingdom march so far. And Elon Musk broadcasting to the crowd live from the US calling for the downfall of the UK Govt. Last week saw 900 arrested at the Palestine Action ban protest.

Labour has to get a grip. They are giving this country away to the extremists.

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

Greenland's nightmare is probably Trump offering each citizen say a million dollars (57, 000 x 1 million) to buy Greenland and they have a referendum and citizens are split on Yes or No, and it's Brexit only even worse because they have a demented apex predator breathing down their neck.

Problem with economic sanctions is they tend to hurt the general population way more than the bastards in charge.

Greenland is absolutely falling over itself to deny any idea of wanting independence from Denmark. (The country has been flirting with the idea of an indie referendum for years...)

Very sensible. No longer part of 'the kingdom of Denmark' means no longer part of Nato, and very vulnerable indeed!

Trumpian imperialism in action: kidnap the head of the regime, leaving the rest of it in place so as to access the oil reserves for the US companies. Then realize the oil is actually quite expensive to extract, so go ahead and SUBSIDIZE the oil companies. Perfect.

This Miller guy really is a total Nazi Klan imperialist wanker. He's practically dribbling at the idea of MORE CONTROL and making even more people do what he wants.

He's saying the US is a superpower and basically we are going to do what the fuck we like in OUR own hemisphere.
MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want?

It's also about Trump & Co seeing what they can do with impunity, kind of trial run for the Greenland grab, which is very obviously on the cards.

Probably quite soon.
Venezuela isn't about fentanyl or national security. It's about oil and Epstein.

The pardon for Hernandez makes an obvious & absolute mockery of each & every attempt to rationalise, or even justify, Trump's treatment of Maduro. I'm not sure this single, simple point can be stressed enough. Once again, he proves his critics right & reduces his supporters to epic moral corruption.

I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

Trump is simultaneously protecting his friends in the Epstein files and enriching his friends by invading Venezuela. The two highest priorities of the current administration.

NBC News: “How soon will elections be held in Venezuela? Within 30 days?”

Rubio: “Elections? I think it is premature at this point.”

The US is going to be there for the long haul.

Trump: 'We're going to have our US oil companies go in and fix oil infrastructure to start making money for Venezuela.' 😂 😂😂

Two pronged victory here for Trump.

1. Huge reserves of free oil.

2. And... can you hear the silence?

...NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT TRUMP & THE EPSTEIN FILES any more.

Sydney held a minute's silence for the Bondi Beach victims. Beautiful and touching 💔

And I wish for all countries to hold a silence every NYE, before the fireworks begin - to honour our precious 'blue green, - the natural world which is being destroyed - and for the victims of war worldwide.

Trump is determined to stop the Russia / Ukraine war ASAP, NOW (even if it's only temporary) so people stop focusing on tthe Epstein files.

In my opinion.
