Russia’s threat to the UK and Europe has been revealed. Remind me what Farage and his colleagues have said in favour of Russia. Whatever Farage calls his latest party, it is a friend to foes, not for the security of the UK.

Farage is rattled. Good.

Get a grip Keir. All the good stuff you are doing is being drowned out. I waited such a long time for a Labour govt and I want it to continue to make all the parts of the UK a better place.🙏

It’s fine really rich actors bug off and then lecture us about constitutional arrangements. No understanding of the impact of the harm inflicted on our vital services by the SNP .

Farage should never become PM. He would never govern for all our people. I genuinely have never heard a teenager in the age before social media making the hissing sound of gas to a fellow Jewish pupil.See him.

In today’s Russian papers there’s scepticism over the current round of diplomacy. One paper: “The European-Ukrainian gang will ‘correct’ Trump’s plan so that it’s unacceptable for Russia.” Another: “I don’t think the Special Military Operation will end this year.” #ReadingRussia
In the Russian papers, much scepticism about the peace plan.

Stand with Ukraine. Why? Because Putin launched an illegal invasion of the country. Russia continues to kill innocent Ukrainian civilians and destroy its infrastructure. Yet Trump wants to reward the aggressor. Why?

Farage?

Can you help? Which UK politicians hosted shows or were regular guests on RT? Russia Today. Alex Salmond and who else?

Dear folks around the UK. Reform is a party of opportunists, racists, liars and now traitors. Get them in the bin of politics. They don’t give a shit about those who need the welfare state. Do yourselves a favour and turn your back to them.

Did Glasgow Warriors need Duhan, Darcy or Kinghorn to win club rugby championships? No they didn’t. So why does Gregor Townsend overlook the Glasgow players?

A thoroughly depressing defeat to Argentina. Again, Scotland went into reverse in the second half. Thanks Gregor but it’s time to go.
