@Ascot do you have any consideration for local residents at all. You close the station car park and drop off area days ahead of the race meeting, you have now closed car park 3 (ditto) and of course other places are closed so you can cram in houses. Utter greed. @Bracknelllive
Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

The Guardian has released a statement after Nigel Farage posted a photo of one of their photographers' press passes, implying that a photojournalist threatened his safety:
"The Guardian is concerned by the recent publication on Nigel Farage’s social media pages of the professional credentials of a photographer working on behalf of the Guardian while he was working lawfully in a public space. Holding public figures to account is the role of a free press.
"As part of the Guardian’s journalism covering Nigel Farage’s purchase of a £1.4m property in cash shortly after receiving a £5m personal gift, a photographer took pictures from a public path and showed his press card when asked to identify himself."

🇳🇱 Europe can't take it anymore, energy crisis plan activated in the Netherlands
Following the global rise in fuel prices, the Netherlands is activating its energy crisis plan for the first time.
The Netherlands drafted this plan in 2022 during the energy crisis caused by the Russia-Ukraine war.
The Dutch government will activate the first phase of the energy crisis plan starting Monday, monitoring disruptions in fuel supply and preparing the industrial sector for immediate fuel shortages.
The US attack on Iran led to restrictions on ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of the world's fuel passes.
I just signed a petition to stop private firms taking profits out of the NHS.
If you think £1.6bn in PROFIT over two years is excessive, harming the survivability of our NHS and it's staff, please sign too.

BREAKING : Italian 🇮🇹 Georgia Meloni becomes the first PM in the world to belt Trump for his remarks on Pope 🔥
🇺🇸 Trump –– "The Pope is weak against crime and he is not doing his job well. He is terrible for foreign policy"
🇮🇹 Meloni –– 🔥 "Trump's words toward the Holy Father are unacceptable. The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church and it is right and normal for him to call for peace and to condemn every form of war"
Trump expected support at Strait of Hormuz from Meloni but she's exposing his hypocrisy instead 🤣
From Apollo to Orion: Five Decades of Progress in a Single CapsuleThe 1972 Apollo Command Module was an engineering marvel of its time — a compact home for three astronauts on short, high-stakes missions to the lunar surface. Tight quarters, basic systems, and just enough room to get the job https://t.co/tzjRMtY8UD forward to the Orion spacecraft flying Artemis II in 2026: a clear leap forward. Larger and more capable, Orion offers significantly more habitable volume for its four-person crew — roughly 60% more interior space than Apollo (about 330 cubic feet versus Apollo’s ~210). It includes modern comforts like a dedicated Universal Waste Management System (a proper microgravity toilet), better life support, and design features built for longer deep-space journeys.This isn’t just a bigger capsule — it represents over half a century of hard-won lessons in human spaceflight. Where Apollo left footprints, Orion is helping us build toward a sustained presence on and around the Moon, paving the way for long-term exploration and eventual journeys deeper into the solar system.The contrast is stunning. The ambition?
Even greater.(Credit: NASA)

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump no longer wants to “Save” the Iranians, he now says they are going to bring them back to the Stone age by hitting civilian infrastructure:
“We're gonna bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong. Keep in mind that an initial justification for the war was to "help" Iranians.”
BREAKING: FRIENDSHIP’S OVER, DONNY! The UK has announced that they are no longer going to share intelligence with the US because they “cannot trust” Trump!
It took a little less than a year for Donald Trump to ruin our special relationship with the United Kingdom, and it’s a sad sign of how far we’ve fallen that our closest allies cannot trust us anymore.
“A Foreign Office source told The i Paper that the White House’s “America First” approach showed Trump had ‘no compulsion about screwing over allies’ and stated that the UK simply ‘cannot trust’ the current administration,” reports the British media.’
John Foreman, the UK’s Defence Attaché to Moscow until 2022, said that “trust once gone is hard to restore…If the US aren’t willing to ensure that UK secrets remain classified, then restrictions will have to be put in place. But [this is] hard when intelligence sharing is so deep and wide.”
Can you blame them? Donald Trump has spent his entire presidency lording it over our allies, treating them like America’s servants, bullying them into paying tariffs, and now raging and screaming at them for refusing to get involved in his idiotic, unprovoked war of choice against Iran.
He’s made it clear that he is willing to sell state secrets to the highest bidder and openly covets their territory, making such a determined push for Greenland that the Danes were literally moving troops there to defend against American invasion.
Donald Trump’s pure, unadulterated madness is ruining all our international relationships and discrediting the United States in the eyes of the world. Even after he’s gone, the old order will be gone with him. No more will the United States be seen as a bastion of stability whose economic hegemony and power must be respected.
How could anyone trust us again after this, when America has made it clear we’re willing to elect a demented racist pedophile not once but TWICE?
Err, no you didn’t.
You slid across to Reform as you know the Tories are finished, partly as a result of your own appalling incompetence over many years.
It’s desperation, not principle. Fortunately we kept the receipts and the country will be roundly rejecting you in 2029.

When Trump leaves office:
The Department of War will go back to being the Defense Department.
The Trump Kennedy Center will go back to being the Kennedy Center.
The Gulf of America will once again be the Gulf of Mexico.
The unfinished East Wing (it won't be finished by the end of Trump's term) will be rebuilt by the next president, and it will not be a ballroom.
Federal agencies packed with unqualified loyalists will fire those people and rehire the career experts Trump fired.
The Department of Justice will go back to enforcing the law instead of protecting the president.
Scientific agencies like NOAA, the EPA, and the CDC will go back to publishing research without political interference.
The U.S. will re-align with its allies and not with its enemies.
The presidential pardon power will stop being used as a rewards program for loyalists.
Inspectors General will go back to investigating corruption instead of getting fired for it.
The White House press room will go back to having briefings, with real journalists and not podcasters.
U.S. foreign policy will stop revolving around flattering dictators.
And the world will progress as though Donald Trump never existed.
