[Rt. Hon Ben Wallace @BenWallace70]

just travelling back from Kyiv. Spent Wednesday night listening to Russia’s idea of peace - drones and ballistic missiles incoming to the City. It is clear Putin doesn’t have any intention to make peace. 1/2

🇬🇧 🇺🇦 Today, The King welcomed the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, to Windsor Castle for lunch.

🇬🇧 🇺🇦 Сьогодні Король Чарльз ІІІ вітав Президента України Володимира Зеленського на ланчі у Віндзорському замку.

Two of Europe’s most powerful task forces teamed up for a week-long exercise as the Royal Navy’s headline global mission, Operation Highmast, reaches the Mediterranean. Imagery is Crown Copyright, and of course, rather nice. #CSG25

In any other major city in Europe the streets of Soho would obviously be pedestrianised and businesses/visitors on a glorious day like today could enjoy al fresco dining. But thanks to Westminster Council and the way we give outsized power to absurd local complaints, not here!

The pressure in question:

[Ryan Baldry @Ryan_Baldry]

Some fun news to kick off the week, I’m really excited to be joining the Board of @Beamish_Museum! As a much loved and treasured anchor of the North East, I’m really looking forward to helping navigate this amazing institution into its next chapter!

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

This entire narrative is so stupid. If Putin "wanted peace", as Trump says, he'd pull Russian invaders out of Ukraine and stop bombing Ukrainians every day. Putin doesn't want peace; he wants Ukraine and he needs war.

King Charles III meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk

[Calum Macdonald @CalumAM]

Zelensky has defended his country for three years (and the rest) with action, dignity and determination.

Tonight he had to defend it with words.

In The Oval Office.

[Ryan Baldry @Ryan_Baldry]

Revoke the begging letter of a state visit and focus on doing what we can for Ukraine. America doesn’t care.

[Ryan Baldry @Ryan_Baldry]

They had no intention of actually doing anything constructive in this meeting. Just screwing Zelenskyy and making Moscow happy.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Wow, Vance and Trump are attacking Zelenskyy in the Oval Office

[UK at the UN 🇬🇧🇺🇳 @UKUN_NewYork]

The @UN General Assembly has voted in favour of a just and lasting peace in Ukraine, consistent with the UN Charter, including the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The UK was proud to co-sponsor this resolution and vote in favour.

The UK stands with Ukraine.

[Jimmy Rushton @JimmySecUK]

The United States just voted alongside Russia against a Ukrainian amendment in the United Nations General Assembly, which called for the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.

The United States is now actively supporting Russia's occupation of Ukrainian territory.

[James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp]

Why does Farage think Ukraine should have a ‘timetable’ for elections? They’re not going through local govt reform - they’re in an existential war & don’t know when it will end. And does he think Putin should have a timetable for free & fair elections? He actually is a dictator.

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

Checking in with @elonmusk's AI Grok tool to see what it makes of Trump calling Zelensky a dictator.

[Ryan Baldry @Ryan_Baldry]

Always good to see the occasional reminder that Britain isn’t twitter and that people do still stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦

[Alex Wickham @alexwickham]

3% of Brits agree with Trump that Ukraine started the war with Russia

77% say Russia started it. Via YouGov

Not much space left in British politics for anyone backing Trump now

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

This & YouGov's poll showing Brits give Zelenskyy +48 & Trump a -51 approval shows dangers to the right in UK of listening to the v. online/US coded in their approach to Ukraine. Brits really support Ukraine & aren't polarised on it. 52% of Reform voters entirely blame Russia!
