We all know which side he'd have been on in 1933.

'Parts of the Ukraine are no man's land'

'Sudetenland is actually Germantic, honestly we just want that and nothing else. Promise.'

His hero Churchill stood up to such aggression.

Bolty is more of a Chamberlain.

JD Vance with the latest bit of Trumpspeak aka "say any old shit and they'll believe it"

Facts?

Sorry, you’re wasting your time.

Do you think they know they’re lying, or have they brainwashed themselves into thinking this sh1t is real?

That's doing a massive disservice to Chamberlain I'd say.

More of a wannabe von Papen.

Anyways he's certainly befuddled.

It's all part of the Flood the Zone strategy. 

You just blast out anything, but constantly. It dominates the news agenda, it's all anyone talks about, strangles to oxygen out of opposition and disenting voices and misdirects so you can pretty much do what you want.

Trump and his acolytes are superb at it.

Starmer and his acolytes are superb at it.

I wish they were better at it, they are awful at it, hence why they allow themselves to be distracted my small news distractions that blow up into bigger things.

They haven't had a good comms strategy since they've been in power, but they are getting better now, thankfully.

The best politican at the moment at it, is Farage, Populists generally are as they are good at pointing out issues; less good at coming up with the boring job of working out the solutions. But from a media perspective it's catnip.

Just heard his nonsense ramble about Scottish abortion buffer zone legislation. Which came in to stop idiots intimidating women going in & out a clinic.

“In a speech at the Munich Security ConferenceVance claimed people who live within safe access zones had been sent letters by the Scottish government warning them about praying within their homes.”

Obviously that’s been proven to be complete bullshit.

 What a fckn nut job 

Vice President of the US ffs.

Some good points however comparing America to any other country that has introduced strict gun laws is a bit silly. You’re comparing an island to a country with 100s of millions of guns in circulation that borders South America. They’re just to easy to get hold of.

Smashed it all in a few days. Cracking watch. 
 

Yep, they love their guns and I doubt there going to be any change anytime soon.

Superb isn’t it

Fired loads of Nuclear Safety Staff, critical to national security & safety. Now desperately scrambling to rehire them…

New heights of incompetence being reached here…

And these are the muppets we’re supposed to trust to make a peace deal with Putin? 

 

Another step nearer to Dictator Trump? Marginalising/ignoring the judicial branch of US government soon. Wonder if those who voted for him realise what he’s doing to their democracy?
 

At his Mar-a-Lago executive order signing ceremony today, Trump has signed two more orders.

The first “reestablishes the longstanding norm that only the president or the attorney general can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is”, an aide tells the Associated Press. The order comes as members of the Trump administration have considered disregarding judicial orders.

Will his protection detail be reviewing his future movements etc?

With this outburst, there may be an increase in the number of nutters wanting to have a pop at another nutter.

Has this not been carried out by his new wife Elon?

Making savings is laudable, but make the right ones for fucks sake.

How about sacking the senior folk who got rid of the wrong ones in the first place?

Yes, he's taken the whole 'what I did at Twitter' to the heart of the US government.

No one is saying there can't be saving made in any political system but what Musk is doing is quite dangerous.
