The UK has secured a £10bn deal to supply the Norwegian navy with at least five new warships. The agreement to provide Type 26 frigates will be the UK's "biggest ever warship export deal by value", the Ministry of Defence (MoD) www.bbc.com/news/article...

Rupert Lowe's dog Cromwell was old + had been unwell + his legs were bad. He could've been cared for, then put sleep at home peacefully in bed, by a vet, kindly But his master chose to have him taken out + shot by his gameskeeper instead Rupert Lowe is a cruel coward who delegates his dirty work

Kemi Badenoch said Britain was in trade talks with Canada and the Canadian high commissioner confirmed it wasn't. Now she's saying she got an offer to study medicine at Stanford and the university has confirmed she didn't. The Tory leader seems careless with the truth.

I don’t think it helps to dismiss the number of asylum seekers who cross the Channel in small boats. What we need to hammer home is that Farage and Tice are directly responsible for creating this situation. Brexit created the small boats problem. They are to blame.

“The number of small boats crossing the English Channel fell to 55 last month, down from 75 for the same period last year, the Home Office said on Monday. The figure was the lowest total since 2019 when it stood at 34.”

Where has this ludicrous ECHR "debate" even come from. I've never once met an ordinary member of the public who's said to me, "Do you know what? We REALLY need to leave the ECHR." It's just a new right wing talking point because every other shit idea they've foisted on us has run out of steam.
Luke McGee (@lukemcgee.bsky.social) reposted
My main issue with the debate around ECHR is that no one advocating for it seems willing to accept that the past decade of politics has shown us that withdrawing from organisations/treaties/institutions always has more unintended consequences than intended, usually negative.
