The Donald Trump peace plan is nothing of the sort. It takes Russian demands and presents them as peace proposals, in what is effectively for Ukraine a surrender ultimatum

No Reform MPs attended Parliament today for the urgent question on Russia, because the Kremlin didn't think it was a good use of our time.

I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s hugely patronising. “Poor wool-headed angels being duped into voting for racists” - no they’re choosing to vote for racists because they’re racist and the patronising effort to woo them only makes it worse. Shame them. Enough will peel off.

How dare Trump and Putin draw up a “peace” plan without the involvement of President Zelenskyy. A stitch up. Putin would be a winner. A reward for invading a sovereign country 🤬

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

1. UK’s response was ‘too little, too late’

2. Lockdown could have been avoided

3. There was a ‘toxic and chaotic culture inside No.10’

4. February 2020 was a ‘lost month’

5. The same ‘inexcusable’ mistakes were repeated

Trump’s peace plan, is what you would expect it to be …… CRAP!

What a result it would be for Putin.
Gives him the green light to invade whichever European country he chooses.

The Covid Inquiry says this was a case of “too little, too late”

No shit Sherlock!

We could have all come to this conclusion.

The Covid Inquiry has cost £227 million.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

This week, the Labour government decided, deliberately, to outbid Reform on cruelty. This is morally repugnant and complete political cowardice.

Out of more than 400 Labour MPs, barely 20 are standing up against these grotesque asylum proposals.
