Trump: “I’m not talking about single state or double state or two state.”

No, he’s talking about real estate.

We had a great time chatting to fans at Leyton Orient. Our members, including Orient supporter @garyseconomics.bsky.social, had a top day at the Patriotic Millionaires-sponsored match.
Good luck to the O’s for today’s game.

The people that lied about having any connection to PPE Medpro are now whining about the High Court ruling that the PPE supplied was faulty and non-sterile.

Never happy, despite their millions.

I’m mentally correcting reports of a hate-monger’s “assassination” to “murder”

Sometimes you just have to do the media’s work for it.

I’d like to remind Tories calling for Angela Rayner to be sacked that many of their ilk that actually broke the law were more likely to be promoted than sacked.

Lucy Connelly is a racist who broke the law and has served some of her prison sentence.

Naturally then, she had much of the UK media fawning over her.

I expect she’ll have her own Gammon News show within weeks.

Let #thameswater collapse and the profiteering owners pick up the tab.

It’s not necessary to nationalise only losses.

The usual suspects, those that did so much damage to the UK, are predictably outraged at the beginnings of closer UK/EU ties. Bring it on.

Of course Mark Carney wasn’t entirely right in saying that The White House could never be bought.

Ask Putin.

I’ve just had a very short conversation with the candidate for the hard of thinking standing in the local elections.

I declined his offer of a Reform Party UK Ltd leaflet and hopefully he’ll heed my advice never to return.

I just need the skin crawling to subside now.

Congress could stop Trump’s tariff policy at a stroke.

This story is ultimately not about presidential power, but about congressional weakness.

Starting a dialogue sooner, I think, increases the chance of positive influence later.
More Martin Lewis than Rupert Murdoch maybe.

I don’t see confronting them with their shortcomings thus far necessarily puts at risk any future influence. When the reset they will inevitably need before the next election comes past criticisms will be forgotten; their priority will be re-election and they will do whatever they believe it takes.

Yes, have them on. Although since winning the election they have been a huge disappointment to say the least, they are realistically the only political game in town if we want real change.

I do not believe that after 14 years of Tory decimation it is necessary to focus on rolling back the welfare state even further.
