Trump's "Board of Peace" is a blatant attempt to replace the UN with an organisation that he can dominate for self-interest and the imposition of a world order where 'might makes right'.

His rampage through international law will make our world more violent & unjust.

Good to discuss on First Post.

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.”

So, same as Canadians.

After illegally abducting Maduro, Trump has just sold $250M of Venezuela's oil to Vitol.

John Addison, a senior trader at Vitol who helped broker the deal, gave $6M to Trump's 2024 campaign.

Name reality, reduce vulnerability to coercion and act consistently. They should cooperate – not compete for favour – to build a more resilient, honest global order. Read about his message of realism and hope ⤵️

Putin is bombing civilians to break them, and Washington stays silent.

No MP should be earning £380,000 on top of their parliamentary salary.

Farage manages it because he's turned "politainment" into a viable career. Like his US counterparts he's discovered that being a disruptor can make you very wealthy indeed.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

The UK was better off in the EU and Europe was better off with the UK in it.

All of this Trump driven chaos underlines that and you can practically hear Putin rubbing his hands in Moscow.

WE have deliberately weakened ourselves, our security and our region for absolutely no good purpose at all.

This map exposes the Greenland lie.

The US used to have a massive military footprint here.

Today, they operate just ONE base.

If Trump were actually worried about Russian vessels, he would simply open more bases, which Denmark allows

Funny how Robert Jenrick, Reform’s latest signing, says “Britain is in decline” ,considering he helped run it as a Tory minister under May, Johnson,Truss &Sunak.
At this point, Reform looks less like a fresh start and more like a reunion tour for the people who caused the decline in the first place.

Glad Jenrick has been booted out in disgrace, rather than being able to saunter over to Reform whenever he felt it would benefit him most.
But honest to god. These dismal, dismal people.
All conniving to screw the county over for their own power and enrichment.
Repulsively corrupt and inadequate.
