for a nationalist state; a big majority of Ukrainians want to resist Ru's invasion in order for Ukraine to join the EU-- a supranational organization that pools member states' sovereignty. European nationalists usually reject the EU whereas Ukrainians want to join it.

I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a call to senators, confirmed the so-called 28-point “peace plan” was actually a Russian wishlist and is “not the administration’s position”. Nor is there any threat to cut off weapons or intelligence to Ukraine.

Analysis of the language used in Trump’s Ukraine “peace plan” shows it was drafted in Russian and translated into English.

It should be simple: people who cheer on violence in the UK can't enrich themselves with British taxpayers’ money.
That means Elon Musk – no government contracts for you, no energy supply license for you.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.
As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

8% of people think it fell
Yet it fell by 400,000 in 2024 vs 2023

Public service broadcasters are doing a core part of their job on this topic badly if that 8% is not closer to 30% at least
