I know this probably isn't going to be news to blue-sky users but for sake of clarity. Trump isn't divisive in Europe he's a unifying influence. Against the USA. Every single European leader could declare an embargo on US goods tomorrow and gain popularity in the immediate short term.

Trump instigates new tariffs to get Greenland. Hurting the USA and the EU simultaneously. All to threaten the very existence of NATO. If Putin wanted to harm Europe and the USA he couldn't invent a better agent. #Tr(ump)aitor

Yhis is from Krugman's book on microeconomics. That outlier figure at the bottom is Norway with negative debt. Just like Scotland should be. #wheresourmoney?

This Christmas remember, Wales has wealth and it has many resources.
Only her people are poor.
Almost 100,000 children in Wales will experience a Christmas in extreme poverty.
It doesn't have to be this way. Independence is the only way to end poverty in Wales.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

The unstoppable momentum is behind Welsh & Scottish independence, and Irish unity. It is also behind English independence, which is actually what Farage is pushing, only he's too stupid to know it.
An impressive Plaid victory in Caerphilly. A 27% swing from Lab to Plaid. Welsh Labour's dominance crumbling. The limits of Farage & Reform's appeal underlined. Maybe the Westminster commentariat can now stop talking abt the unstoppable momentum behind Farage. Reform are beatable.
