Remarkable recovery from Farage. No longer looks ill at all.
Johnson on Trump and Greenland: “I don’t think it’s a threat to NATO… He’s done more for NATO than anyone in history…I think he has deserved the Nobel Peace Prize…This issue in Greenland, I think, should not be a disruption to all of that.”

Remarkable recovery today by Farage. Get the impression he may not have been ill yesterday.

The UK does NOT seek the return of the 13 colonies. Honestly.

Wasn't Farage boycotting the BBC?
BBC Politics has become an abject joke.

Trump tax on all US goods imported into the UK. Let see what Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Tesla and Oracle have to say.

The United States is not our ally. The sooner we treat them with caution the better.

Be hilarious if the Nobel committee cancelled the award and requested the return.

Chris Mason; how this defection is catastrophic for Keir Starmer...

My leadership ambitions were thwarted so I'm joining an organisation that I will NEVER lead.

Genius, Bob.

Defections should automatically trigger a by-election.

It seems that my Independent councillor has now become Reform.

By-elections should be mandatory within 3 months if a councillor/MP changes or becomes a member of a party.

Enough of the opportunists.

Only takes one. Message sent.

Whether the eejits understand is another matter entirely.

UK Tea Party.
A senior Tory MP once told me the ‘worst’ conservatives gathered around Boris Johnson.

When it comes to Tories defecting to Farage and Reform, we can be sure they are the worst of the worst - la crème de la crème ou la merde de la merde

These risks...

Stay at home and face the US version!

Gender neutral pronouns?
Reporter: Would you ever order a mission to go and capture Putin?

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Tell me again how all politicians are the same.
Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

This is what happens when you recklessly extend BRICS right up to America’s borders and ignore America’s legitimate security concerns.

I fear that Fiona Hill is, once again, correct.
The cynics think today's attack on Venezuela is staged and transactional. Maduro is allied with Putin, but in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine. (See Fiona Hill's testimony in Trump's first impeachment trial, h/t @davetroy.com). Even Maduro may be in on it. 2/

Translation: Starmer hasn't stated his position so I can't yet be contrary.
Badenoch has a remarkable ability to be rebarbative in any context. The first sentence here is totally unnecessary.
