Not my king - abolish the monarchy.
I don't automatically follow back.
The banner is the view over my garden to Castle Hill (large tree), where King Malcolm Canmore 1st held Parliament in 1058.
And these are the same people/party who this morning gleefully informed us that they'll be getting rid of British born children.

More bizarre: Labour ignore Brexit reality and willingly abide by the shit deal the far-right Tories negotiated which still does NOT work.

The referendum specified NOTHING so we can UNDO that lousy deal. Labour will not. Are they taking Russian money?

Farage also faced an investigation by the European Parliament’s code of conduct committee and the EU’s anti-fraud watchdog (OLAF) over claims he failed to declare around £450,000 in funding from businessman Arron Banks in the year of the Brexit referendum.

Farage’s former volunteer aide, George Cottrell, was arrested in the US in 2016 and pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud as part of a plea bargain, after being caught in an FBI sting operation.

This funding allegedly covered a London home, security, and trips to the US. In November 2025, two donors with links to the think tank linked to Farages partner Laure Ferrari were convicted of fraud in a Brussels court.

The only thing I remember about Carlson was when he flew into somewhere in Europe (was it Moscow though?) and was absolutely both confounded and amazed at the luggage trolleys in the airport.🤦‍♀️

Well duh.There used to be an Intourist hotel on Teatralnaya Ulitsa in Moscow where I used to buy newspapers on my way to school. Underaged trafficked girls used to wait for men like Trump in a dark corner of the lobby. When a western company bought the place, they found it riddled with bugs. YKWIM.

Trump is the ideal asset. He's dumb, arrogant, insecure, (with so very many good reasons), ill-read, incurious, petty, bad-tempered, weak, shallow, & makes me wish I was still an interrogator. Just slap him in cuffs & leave him in a room for a few hours. Give him his Diet Coke & a burger.
