President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders.

Ed Davey calls on Keir Starmer to back Canada against Trump attacks. We need to stand by Canada 🇨🇦
We can’t normalise calling Canada the 51st state. Canada are our allies. Remaining silent is condoning the very clear threat. #elbowsup

Choosing to take money from disabled benefit claimants rather than levy a wealth tax is simply immoral 👇
Labour mollifies the rich, targets disabled people and claims moral justification. There isn’t any | Frances Ryan
Ministers run away from a wealth tax and then concoct a punitive benefits system. They have made that choice and it’s immoral, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

Trump has stopped sharing intelligence and paused military aid with Ukraine. He claims he’s trying to make peace and end the war, but all he’s really doing is weakening Ukraine and strengthening Putin.
Trump is a Russian asset.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.
