This is going to blow your mind, but it turns out that this free speech warrior doesn't actually support free speech.
Kemi Badenoch: “If you look at the reasons that the Israeli govt had given, they do not believe they are going to comply with their laws.
“I believe [MPs] should be able to go anywhere in the world and people not be worried about what they are going to do.”

A gem of a podcast particularly in these troubled days - informative and engaging. Highly recommended!
Whilst media falls over itself to argue that #LePen benefits from this, back in Jan Thom Reilly observed that her deputy Bardella had said if she was convicted she shouldn’t be allowed to run. Listen here:

Good thread - facts matter!
The Telegraph recently ran a headline:
"More than one million foreigners claiming benefits."
Sounds shocking, right?
But what does it actually mean?

Solbergs skatteløfte: Kutt på 30 milliarder
Vi trenger en økonomi som kan bære en krig, sier Høyre-leder Erna Solberg. Hun vil styrke forsvarsevnen, kutte i offentlig sektor og gi skatteletter på minst 30 milliarder kroner.

Far-right polemicists like Douglas Murray help elevate populist arseholes like Trump to positions of power.
His saying a good thing once - because the leopards he supported are threatening a group he likes - should not result in reasonable journos forming an orderly queue to guzzle his ballsack.

Meninger: Bruk 1000 milliarder på å styrke Ukraina og Europa
Dette kan ikke lenger betraktes som en frenetisk feberdrøm. En slik sum vil nå være helt riktig for å sikre Europas suverenitet og forsvarsevne.
