I’m from the UK and took an interest in politics after the 2016 referendum. Brexit has not worked and now there is Trump again. I’m a 75 year old Granny who likes gardening and history especially the Tudors. I’m enjoying Blue Sky.

Congratulations to my friend and our newest State Senator from Tarrant County, Taylor Rehmet! I met Taylor years ago through labor organizing.

Don’t tell us what can’t be done in Texas. When we show up #TexasTough, we change the game. Today we proved what we’ve known all along: Texas is in play.

In 2024, seven European street artists worked with local communities to transform facades across Belgium into powerful works of art.

These reflect visions of a sustainable, fair, innovative, and democratic Europe.

Awkward for Farage because a good number of Clarkson's many hardcore fans are natural Reform voters and will listen to him.
✅ Clarkson is right, people aren’t voting Reform for policies 👉there aren’t any.

It’s a protest vote powered by nostalgia not a plan for future.

Reform use farming as a prop. Their real plan is USA trade deal, hormone-treated imports and they’ve appointed Ben Goldsmith

Lord Newby on the damage Brexit has caused:

"Brexit will reduce GDP by 4% over a 15-year period."

"UK-EU trade will fall by 15%."

"Brexit has already had a negative impact on the public finances to the tune of over £40 billion over the period to 2024."

BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.

This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 — literal warehousing of people.
