Trump has no real peace plan. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Russia just to make business deals with the Russians to enrich themselves and their friends in exchange for selling out Ukraine and NATO countries.

The UK has gone quite, quite mad.
It's ridiculous that we (just about) survived 14 years of the Tories, only for Labour to allow the madness to take hold and spread.
Some of the stuff in those bullets is just breath-takingly evil.
And it's not winning Labour ANY votes. Just helping Reform.
