I stopped using X in November 2024 over its failure to tackle abuse, hate & illegal content.
X is monetising sexual abuse, it must stop now. Ofcom is right to investigate, but while it does, access to X & Grok must be immediately restricted. Every delay risks more victims.

'We have to take Greenland or Russia will' narrative sounds like it's been cooked up by the Kremlin & US collectively.
It's mutually beneficial.
1. Ends NATO, Putin's ultimate goal.
2. Makes Trump look tough on Russia, without doing anything to hurt them.

No Kemi, Trump threatening to invade a NATO ally is not a "second order issue."
It’s a direct challenge to Britain’s security and the future of NATO.

Astonishing to hear the Conservative leader describe a threat against a NATO ally as a ‘second order issue’.
…the fact that it’s a threat by impulsive gangster Trump makes it a terrifying reality.
Kemi, like Nigel, clearly in the pocket of the mad far right US Administration, cowards both.

The starting point "Denmark cannot defend the territory" is misleading nonsense - given that Denmark allows the US to maintain military bases there
The Reform UK supporting Telegraph running a comment piece from a US CEO and president of the Palm Beach Freedom Institute about why Greenland belongs to the US is the hight of uninformed nonsense.

Greenland belongs in the United States
Denmark cannot defend the territory. It is too strategically important for the US to leave it vulnerable to potential Chinese control
