Trump has just appointed this woman Director of National Intelligence. A pro-Russian, pro-Putin mouthpiece. To remind you the UK shares intelligence with the US. Worse than worst case scenario.

No it is the arrival of the Sovereign Individual and the dismantling of democracy and the carving up of the state between rich friends. The good news is that the egos are so large they will probably end up dismantling each other

Nice to see @spectator with its five figure circulation worrying that @RestIsPolitics is in trouble cos of @RoryStewartUK Kamala prediction and @jk_rowling having a pop at me. Tell that to the five million plus who downloaded (and listened to the end!!) last week. What @michaelgove wouldn’t give for that kind of reach!!

Holy shit this is INCREDIBLE work from @ByDonkeys. And bonus points for projecting the entire thing on @Tesla headquarters, effectively turning @elonmusk’s building’s most visible exterior side into a cinema screen to broadcast the tale of his corruption and political malfeasance

It would be good if some of the many outlets asking Labour ministers endless questions about why they're not giving Nigel Farage a job stopped to consider why hiring a raging Putin apologist as a UK diplomat at this point might not be the greatest of ideas

NHS in ‘last-chance saloon’, says former health sec.
Weakened by political experiments.
Billions sucked out by PFI payments. £13bn private investment, repayment £80bn.
Parts privatised. Money buys less. 30%-40% vanishes in profits.
End privatisation.

Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing.
The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos.

Matt Frei, "One person not with Donald Trump last night was his nephew Fred Trump.. He voted for Kamala Harris"
Fred Trump, "He and I have had big time differences.. Namely when he said my son should just die because he has disabilities"
Matt Frei, "He actually said that?"
Fred Trump, "He said that"

Remember when everyone swore they were just looking for tunnels and hostages? Remember when they said we were hysterical I mean bigots for claiming they would absolutely ethnically cleanse and annex Gaza? Remember when every red line was crossed with total impunity?

George Monbiot(Guardian): "Braverman's statement is self evident nonsense... Trump has a special relationship with Putin... Braverman is one of those fake patriots... the moment some foreign demagogue arises, they prostrate themselves in the dust..."

The ten richest people in the US added $64billion to their wealth on the back of Trump win and Mogg continues to pretend people like him are on the side of the people against the elite. Same trick with Brexit after which of course he shipped his cash to 🇮🇪
Donald Trump's victory is a crushing defeat for the global elite and should be celebrated. Read more in my weekly article: letters.jacobreesmogg.com/p/…

Sainsbury's made £1.7bn profit, more than triple the average they made 3 years ago.
But they are moaning about a £140m increase in their NI payments.
Personally I think it should be much higher.
