"European powers aren't going to fight the US over Greenland," says Lewis Goodall.

“But what it would do, at a stroke, is destroy the fundamental pillar of US, European and Western geopolitical security – which is the NATO Alliance"

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots.

Today marks day 65 of Heba Muraisi’s hunger strike.

Day 58 for Kamran Ahmed.

They are now at imminent risk of death and this Labour government remains spineless and cowardly — refusing even to meet their lawyers while lives hang in the balance.

I feel like every European leader is waiting for the Trump storm to blow over.

But what happens if the storm invades Greenland, Cuba, Columbia, destroys NATO, abandons Ukraine, shrugs as China takes Taiwan?

Can post-Trump Dems put all that right again? Nope.

This storm changes everything.

The timeline for this scandal is set out in a report from Public Accounts Committee which describes it as a “needless waste of taxpayers’ money”.

Where is the accountability for those who signed off on this?

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

While the final US military operation last weekend might have been under cover of darkness, the build-up to it was out in the open for all to see.

I've constructed some timelines of the immediate build-up covering both the strikes and the supporting actions...
