sickening.😔 These atrocities will go on as long as Israelis are allowed to treat Palestinian people less than human. Israel's own violent ethnic apartheid in their own country lets them believe they can do the same elsewhere. Israel has become a monster

Good to meet the new Swiss Ambassador Dominique Paravicini. Scotland and Switzerland share a commitment to deepening ties across culture, trade and innovation and will work toward a future of even closer cooperation.

however much Americans protest at what Trump does, it is still predictable: a wannabee dictator basking in his own imagined glory with sycophants right left and centre. But there are those who want to steal his crown
After ten months of Trump2 2025, what he does and says is no longer shocking. It's all "same old, same old". His threats are uninteresting, his self-admiration is predictable. News media will soon have to find a new source of interest.

😒He's broken so many pledges already, what's a few more?
Democrats unflinching in shutdown strategy, blaming Trump with millions at risk of losing food aid - CNN
United States is the ONLY country in the world that has these government shutdowns. 😒 It says to me, fighting political parties putting their own petty grievances first. There is no winner
it's only the 60 million. The rest of us plan a different future

Ffs Starmer, there isn't "One Nation" 🙄

There's partitioned Ireland which should be unified with the rest of it's country 🇮🇪, There's Wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, where you got your arse kicked, there's England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿where you've surrendered to Reform politics. Try listening to people that aren't rabid 🙄 & there's Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
🤨😠 Bolder??? Lucy Powell says Labour has to be bolder after winning deputy leadership election - BBC
Labour's boldness in attacking & alienating their core voters as soon as they were in power, has led to their dismal ratings and losses in just 18 months. Can they be any bolder? Fools rush in..
The UK Labour government allows fraud and may even encourage it. Perhaps common in US, but the people of UK deserve better. But who is there that would root out the fraud, cronyism, sleaze? Not I say the 650 members of parliament😏
deranged frail Trump looking worse & worse, losing weight too

Fantastic result for @lindsay_whittle and @plaid_cymru

Labour held the Caerphilly constituency in the Senedd for 26 years, from the first election in May 1999 and at Westminster for over a century!
#CairphillyByElection Well Done Plaid Cymru! 👏👏👏 Lindsay Whittle, this is your time to shine
with Reform in power in Wales, the care for the people will be even less than Labour's efforts. Perhaps Labour/Plaid Cymru coalition will work better?
a government with a conscience..
In a major diplomatic rift, Spain has officially severed ties with Israel, implementing an arms embargo, travel and trade bans, and restrictions on Israeli goods.

IMO Plaid Cymru need to make big visible show of Welsh Indy strength in Caerphilly by making it too good a story for English based news media to ignore. Use them😏
