They absolutely bled the UK white after WWII, took all our most valuable IP and claimed it as American (medicines, jets, physics, nuclear, diesels, electronics).
America is not and never has been anyone’s friend. It’s a bully and a thug with a chip on its national shoulder. Trump just exposed it

The Putin-Trump surrender plan is the end if European security. If you decided you didn’t care about Ukraine (I do, but just if) you should oppose with every fibre if you don’t want further Russian attacks on Europe.

It really is that simple.
Completely agree.
The fates of Ukraine and Europe are linked.
European security system will be destroyed without Ukraine.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Any one of the charges here against the former Sun editor should stop Keir Starmer appointing David Dinsmore.

When you look at them all together - it's an absolute outrage.

The public certainly saw through you. They never chose you to be their Prime Minister, and at the first opportunity to vote on your catastrophic bin fire of a premiership they kicked you out of one of the safest Tory seats in Britain. Do stop continually embarrassing yourself. 🥬

The FPA is dismayed by Sir Keir Starmer's press accreditation policy for the EU-UK Summit of Monday 19th May. The vast majority of EU news outlets have been denied access. We have written to @10DowningStreet to urge him to reconsider.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social As regards 20% VAT on imports argument with the EU and the UK, it is completely neutral. If you buy a car from the US it carries 20% VAT in the same way you buy a car from an EU/UK maker it also carries a 20% VAT.

Sites dumping sewage into rivers for more than 2,000 hours a year up from 22 to 40.

Company paid out record dividends, exec salaries; neglected investment, hiked customer bills.

In particular, the Brexity folks who claimed to be all about the Commonwealth are nowhere to be seen.

More generally, anyone who claims to support free trade but also supports Trump should never be taken seriously ever again.
At the heart of Canadian national memory is the awareness that Canadians twice came to the UK's aid in world wars years before the Americans showed up.

It will not be forgottem if the Brits now hide in a corner and say nothing when Canada faces existential threats.
Would be nice to see some UK politicians speaking up in support of Canada, which is blameless in this and with which Britain has far closer ties than it does with the US.

Nobody hold their breath.
