OTD in 1994 The Budapest Memorandum was signed. It remains the most spectacular waste of paper, ink, and geopolitical optimism in the history of humankind.

​The deal was simple: Ukraine disarms. Russia, the UK, and the USA promised, in return, to guarantee our security and territorial integrity.

Infantino is a despicable corrupt man. He knows very well the Peace Prize comes form one place and one place only. Get rid of him. FIFA will be ruined under him #C4news

It’s truly pitiful to watch an ingratiating #FIFA President invent an “award” and present it as a consolation prize for the biggest baby in the world. #C4news

Eurovision head: members "have had a full opportunity to debate it.. as we can see from the emphatic result.. Eurovision shouldn't be used as a political theatre"

erm, organisers prevented a vote on excluding Israel. Including a genocidal apartheid regime is a political choice

"Tories accuses Farage of ranting about racism allegations - while at same time in effect admitting they are true"

"Farage was right… there were plenty of programmes on TV in the 1970s that would not be acceptable today… But it is hard to recall a comedy programme about the Holocaust."

President Trump has now pardoned 12 members of Congress convicted of crimes varying from tax evasion, campaign corruption, lying to the FBI, bribery, insider trading, obstruction, etc.

If Jeff Epstein were alive today, he’d be a free man in Trump’s America.

Crypto investor and former Tory donor Christopher Harborne has just given a record-breaking £9 million donation to Reform.

Nigel Farage has spent recent months publicly calling for deregulation of the crypto industry, telling an industry conference that "I am your champion"

Doesn't say anything for the political instincts of Number 10 that they were surprised by a positive response to a positive EU agenda.

Doesn't say much for their diplomatic instincts that this came 12 months too late to make a difference to negotiations. www.politico.eu/article/brex...

Emma Barnett did a good job there, she backed Tice into a corner where he had nowhere else to go, (these racists are operating on a policy of “never explain never apologize”), so in response to “Are you calling him a liar?” he answered “Yes.”
Isn’t that defamation? #r4today

Tice accuses people of lying about things Nigel 'gas the Jews' Farage said 40 years ago.

The same Richard Tice who claimed never to have met Nathan Gill, the former Reform Wales leader currently in a 10-stretch for trousering Russian bribes.

Trump routinely stands up and makes incoherent statements and nobody even blinks, we all just accept it. So who’s the bigger fool? #r4today
Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...

Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

Our government tried to let racist, genocidal Israeli football hooligans rampage on Birmingham's streets.

They smeared those opposed to this as being driven by hatred of Jewish people.

Now listen to what the West Midlands Chief Constable told MPs.

What a scandal.
