◾️The EU is committed to continue providing Zelenskyy with all the support it needs – diplomatic,military,economic support. This concerns, in particular, financial support to Ukraine.
As you remember, we committed to deliver on it in October, and we will deliver at the December European Council.

Ursula von der Leyen:

These are core European principles moving forward:

◾️Ukraine's territory and sovereignty must be respected.

◾️Only Ukraine, as a sovereign country, can make decisions regarding its armed forces.

◾️The choice of their destiny is in their own hands.

So Laura Kuenssberg did an hour long programme yesterday and did not mention once, the party leading the polls being implicated in Russian money?

Lisa Nandy, you have a golden opportunity to move Robbie Gibb on and really move the BBC back to real impartiality.

As we speak, the Western world is currently discussing whether to impose a cap on the army of a country that has been invaded, while sparing the country that launched the invasion from any such limit.

If you attend a church in North Carolina and they aren’t loudly and clearly opposing ICE, leave that church. They have no
interest in Jesus.

(Correction, if you attend a church in America…)

There were 93 homicides in London last year: population 9 million

In New York - population 8.5 million - there were
391.

London's homicide figure is 6 times lower than LA, 9 times lower than Miami, 17 times lower than Chicago.

And it's falling year on year despite the population increasing

I've been talking about this on here for a while. We just assume it will always rain enough, so the management of water in the UK is totally disastrous. Now, after a relatively few dry months, we are approaching a calamity. We have done it to ourselves. Yet again. We are a deeply unserious country.
