Well that was quite a speech @mrjamesob.bsky.social. Brilliantly written and Charles Windsor delivered it with aplomb.

Did you know that 6th months ago, while presumably we were planning this stupid war, the Navy decommissioned its four Avenger-class minesweepers that had been stationed in Bahrain precisely to deal with Iranian mines in the Strait? More from @jvl.bsky.social . www.thebulwark.com/p/our-low-iq...

Twice on Monday, Trump said he'd spoken to predecessors, who told him they regretted not attacking Iran in the reckless manner he has. Then "journalists" turned up and fact checked it by asking the four living former presidents if it was true. Guess what... it's not abcnews.com/US/wireStory...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social He’s using similar words about PM of UK as he did about dead leadership of Iran. What is the price he’ll ask for? apple.news/AOg9uHjArSuK...
What’s the punsihment this unhinged maniac will mete out for slighting his ego? Air raids? Nuclear war? Asteroid strike? apple.news/AOg9uHjArSuK...

Apologies to @zoejardiniere.bsky.social for crossposting her tweets from the nasty place, but I felt this deserves airtime on bluesky because of how emphatically they prove the nasty, immoral, opportunistic politics of Reform.

Here in Europe we can only dream of having a leader who is so honest with citizens. Can you imagine a Europe where we had someone like Carney as 🇪🇺President? Instead we're stuck with von der Leyen, Rutte, Starmer, Merz, Meloni. Maybe they will actually listen to what Carney is telling them (🧵6/6)

Landed at Heathrow today. Plane duly parked up at a gate. Then we waited for 15 minutes for someone to come let us into the airport. But tell me how we’re full up and don’t need any more people comin’ o’er ‘ere. #globalbritain @mrjamesob.bsky.social

If there is a post that explains where we are going, how and why, better than this one, I have yet to see it. @mrjamesob.bsky.social
Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story. Ahh look, he’s just a ‘nerdy’ guy. No harm done. You need to scroll down to paragraph 13 of the Sky piece to find the full story! 🧵 1/9

Nigel Farage promised that Reform councils would cut local government "waste" in order to slash taxes. Now the party's flagship Kent administration is set to actually raise taxes and has just started asking opposition parties for help after failing to identify the millions in savings they promised

Somebody surely changed his notes. “This idiot will read anything we give him, so let’s put, like, Darth Vader, and see if he reads it.”
Trump: "We have Darth Vader. You know Darth Vader, right? Darth Vader is a man who is sitting -- is that Darth? Stand up please. Does everybody know -- they call him Darth Vader, I call him a fine man. But he's cutting Democrat priorities and they're never gonna get them back."

🔴NEW🔴 Thread 🧵 @bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12
