Having been accused of being ‘virtually anonymous’ by a respondent accusing me of making Twitter arguments (🤷♂️):
I’m a retired hospital pharmacist in Yorkshire. My wife was a GP so we think we have a little insight into health care.
Probably a bit woke.

Just catching up on 1883, the Yellowstone prequel. If there’s even a modicum of accuracy in this it’s hard to argue that the modern day US has become any more civilised than it was less than 150yr ago.
Is this what MAGA wants?

Trump hasn’t apologised for his slur on NATO troops despite his mealy mouthed comments intended to mollify UK servicemen.
He certainly hasn’t done enough to repair the damage he’s done - clearly intended - to drive a rift between the US and the NATO allies.

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Noem's lies are mind blowing: "This individual attacked those officers, had a weapon on him and multiple, dozens of rounds of ammunition, wishing to inflict harm on these officers, coming, brandishing like that.

How ironic will it be, after all Trump and his acolytes said about Biden and his aging mind and and body, if the 25th Amendment is invoked because the current incumbent is unfit for Office - just one year after entering the White House.

So, when US spokespersons state the US contribution ’dwarfs’ that of other countries, it’s a tiny bit of an exaggeration, isn’t it?

No MP should be earning £380,000 on top of their parliamentary salary.
Farage manages it because he's turned "politainment" into a viable career. Like his US counterparts he's discovered that being a disruptor can make you very wealthy indeed.

Farage is entirely responsible here but has thrown his ‘team’ under the bus for 'admin' errors
Real problem is he's showing profound disrespect for his position as an MP - a role well-paid from the public purse & which the majority of us dedicate ourselves to as a more-than-full-time job

Whisper it - Trump has secured a deal, the best deal ever, nobody could have secured a better deal- people are saying this - and he now has the ability to do everything on Greenland he wants to do.
Which is exactly what he could do before.

Trump versus reality on the Chagos Islands:
1. UK is not ‘giving away’ the Chagos Islands. It is restoring them to Mauritius having split them off from the former colony when it became independent in 1965.
2. There is a very compelling reason: in 1965 the UN objected …

Quite.
With Trump's constant flip-flopping about who/what he likes and what he's going to do about them/it perhaps the UK should wake up and realise he's not worth doing any serious business with. He's out for himself - he's not even interested in America, he just wants his and his family's pockets lined.
