Spot on!
Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever, "Nobody wants to join the United States" "People want to join the European Union" "Because we have respect, the rule of law, and we speak softly" "I would like to confirm the US is an ally, but they have to behave like an ally" "The West is not united, but Putin sees that we are divided" "I grew up in the 80s where the West stood for something, sovereignty, democracy, freedom" "The idea that in a conflict between a tyrant and a democracy, the United States says they're not going to take sides? - Putin sees this" "Now a NATO country is threatening another NATO country? It would not discourage him from his attack on Ukraine" Excellent contribution @Bart_DeWever thank you 👏

Amazing intro from Krishnan Guru-Murthy #CovidInquiry "The government during covid was a disgusting orgy or narcissism. And that was according to Boris Johnson himself as he struggled to deal with the pandemic and clashed with his advisers. Evidence from Dominic Cummings and Lee Cain today revealed the extent of government breakdown and incompetence during national crisis. And the extent to which the Prime Minister's closest aid held him in contempt, even while working for him. Text messages from the times showed bitterness, hatred, utter disfunction, and a toxic culture in which women felt victims of misogyny while people were dying by the thousands. Of course Cummings himself who took his famous eye test in Barnard castle, admitted doing no wrong, claiming he had broken no rules. Is the covid reckoning beginning at last?"

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK was released 43 years ago today. One of Hollywood’s most popular films and most acclaimed sequels, the making of story is as huge as you’d expect. A THREAD 1/38

Brexit has turned the U.K. into precisely the kind of politically unstable, crony-ridden, economically rackety European nation the Brexiters used to mock!
