What could possibly go wrong?! Crypto investor donates record £9m to Reform UK. Labour had ample opportunity and the Parliamentary majority to cap donations and stop this anti-democratic juggernaut and they failed. Now we have even more of a David and Goliath situation

The sum from Christopher Harborne is the largest ever single donation by a living person to a British political party.

Ireland, Spain, Netherlands, Slovenia to boycott Eurovision.

65% voted in favour of changes to public voting system to be enough to address disquiet over Israeli "public" support. So there was no vote on opposition on the grounds of war in Gaza

Pretty much every article about the Putin-Kushner-Witkoff summit in Moscow yesterday fails to mention that Kushner is simultaneously accepting tens of millions in annual payments from the Saudis and other foreign governments.

Seems like a key detail!

Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Brexit wasn’t one decision it was a slow, grinding erosion of our economic foundations.

And here’s the real scandal:
we cannot repair this with “friendly relations” or photo ops in Brussels.
We need real alignment - customs union, single market - but the UK–US pharma deal blocks that path.

Current US Policy:

If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.
