Were he not 'a heartbeat away' from the Resolute Desk, Vance would be fairly hilarious with his highly polished stream of verbal idiocy and pig ignorance.
Plus if RMS Titanic not have had the whole 'iceberg thing', the Olympic Class had a rather impressive turning circle of 1,100 meters, at speed.

Pains me to say, as someone who despises Mad King Donald, and voted Labour, that this is spot on.
Starmer has damned the UK, to near complete global irrelevance, all in the space of the year.

I have a piece up at the @telegraphnews.bsky.social on how Trump’s air strikes against Iran have left Keir Starmer looking irrelevant and without influence. (Mostly because he is irrelevant and without influence.)
Peace through strength is back: Trump, not Britain, has led the way
Trump’s attack on Iran has destroyed the delusions of liberal multilateralism

the Los Angeles riots, the first Gulf War, the first Intifada, 57 IRA bombs in 1992 alone, Sri Lankan civil war, Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Congo etc etc
Well, Israel is now bombing Iran. So really, between the plane crash, that senator, LA riots and now this - it's been the most "unprecedented" day...this week!
I WANT TO GO BACK TO THE 1990s. This millennia is *NOT* what I was promised so far.

I can only presume that this dodgy deal has hidden elements of corruption and cronyism that will become clear over time....
The government's international law arguments the Chagos surrender deal don't stand up to scrutiny. Me in The Telegraph. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05...
Starmer is simply wrong: international law does not require his Chagos surrender
Parliament has the right and the duty to stop this act of national humiliation
