  Interesting thing. Someone’s just pointed out that almost all the staff who were on the Durham trip with Keir have since left his office. You know how all the witnesses to the Kennedy assassination died or disappeared in mysterious circumstances….

  In retrospect Sandy Hook marked the end of the US gun control debate. Once America decided killing children was bearable, it was over.
• 
  US Senator Mark Kelly flew 39 combat missions over Iraq. He piloted the Space Shuttle four times. But he went to Kiev and called for the defence of Ukraine. So Elon Musk has branded him a "traitor".

  British defence sources say it's time to stop sharing Five Eyes intelligence with the United States

  I don’t get the “debate” surrounding Matt Hancock. He’s now openly admitted he broke his own rules. So either the Government formally adopts the position “we don’t have to abide by the rules, but you lot do”. Or he has to step down. It’s that simple.

  My mum: “Are you going to be doing more stuff defending Cummings”. Me: “Yes”. My mum: “Then you’re an idiot”. So that’s going well then...

  Nigel Farage literally went to the States and appeared at a Trump campaign rally.

  Whatever your views of the conflict, if the UN isn't a forum for trying to bring adversaries together, what exactly is the point of it. And if you're just going to walk out on someone you object to, how are you supposed to mediate your way to a solution.
• 
  Again, people are just being stupid. No one condones vandalism. But come on, what are we doing with statues of slavers knocking around on the streets of Britain in 2020.
• 
  Understand people's Omicron concerns. But we were told vaccines would remove the need for lockdowns. If that's no longer the case, OK. But we need to have a serious debate. Because I just don't see how a cycle of perpetually locking, then unlocking, society is sustainable.

  Jess Philips being hard as nails towards the scumbags trying to intimidate her is my favourite image of the night

  The worst thing is this was clearly premeditated. It was a trap. Trump and Vance deliberately wanted to humiliate Zelensky. They wanted to make him grovel in the Oval Office to make Putin and their MAGA base happy. Utter scum.

  If only someone at the BBC had realised earlier the way to stop black men in the United States being killed by policeman was to remove the Fawlty Towers “Don’t Mention The War” episode.
