It was like being whisked away to another universe in 1983 when David Vine said hello to the nation from the slopes.

Vine a supreme operator - authority and gravitas in recent measure.

Much talk of toxic masculinity etc these days. If you want an example of a male role model, a man of strength, character, power, guts, compassion - look, listen and learn from Chris Hoy.

For anyone who fancies a slow Sunday read, Norfolk photography, history and stories.

Take a walk with my website.

The reason is pedophilia.

[👑 ♤ Lake Ontario  @LakeOntario16]

I was given my name by the Iroquois Nation many hundreds of years ago. By 1660 my name was printed on maps by the Europeans as they accepted the Native name which means Beautiful waters.
In 1867 the Canadian government decided to use my name for their providence.

No one has ever looked more stupid waving a flag than Donald Trump.

Imagine being so staggeringly stupid and ignorant that you look at this self-serving, illiterate, cognitively impaired asshole and proudly think, that’s exactly who I want representing me on the world stage.

[Maj. (Ret.) Richard Ojeda @Ojeda4America]

As a Retired US Army paratrooper, pictures like these hit hard. Trump never had the courage to pick up a rifle and man a post when he was called to serve.

Yet he has the nerve to promote AI pictures like this showing him wearing things like Parachutist badges, and rows of ribbons he never had to courage to obtain. Anyone who has ever served should be pissed at garbage like this.

His father paid a doctor’s note so he wouldn't have to serve. But remember that for every one of the draft deferments, someone else had to go in his place.

A pure disgrace.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

Everything coming out of the White House is propaganda. Think on that for a moment: everything that every American citizen is being told by this administration…is a lie….told for the purpose of manipulating a big part of the nation into grinning…while their pockets are being picked.

1. Serena Williams would pass a sex test because she's female and then the rumors would stop.

2. Katie Ledecky and A'ja Wilson would pass a sex test because they are female and then the rumors would stop.

3. Imane Khelif already failed a sex test because he is male and has no business in women's sport. He cheated a woman out of an Olympic gold medal.

Lack of clear, defined rules protecting women's sport for female athletes only is what hurts female athletes.

Bin Day cometh.

Trump just dismantled this so his blatant corruption and his cronies overseas can operate without consequences or detection. Organized crime is now legal and the US is open for exploitation by foreign and domestic criminals. Don’t expect Rubio to say a word.

[Lost London @Lost___London]

Soon, London's last Medieval market will be gone.

Please share and make other aware of this unjust tragedy. Thank you 🤝

🚨 Now perhaps we’re beginning to understand why a strong Europe matters so much.

Trump wants Greenland 🇬🇱

Greenland 🇬🇱 possesses extraordinary strategic value: Arctic geography, critical minerals, energy and control of an increasingly important part of the world.

Now a Trump-linked American 🇺🇸 oil company has landed equipment in Greenland 🇬🇱 while preparing to drill without approval from Greenland’s government, which has issued a “strong warning”.

Meanwhile the Trump administration attacks European institutions, champions sympathetic nationalist movements across Europe and pressures individual European governments.

We should ask the basic question:

Who has more power to resist an American president demanding Greenland 🇬🇱

Denmark 🇩🇰 standing alone?
Or Denmark backed by a united Europe of 450 million people?

This is what sovereignty actually means in the 21st century.

Divide the herd and every member becomes easier to pick off.

And so we have:

Greenland: Trump challenging the territorial interests of Denmark/Europe.

Ceuta: an enormous, highly unusual breach of the external border of Spain/EU from Morocco, a close Trump partner.

European politics: Trump-world figures openly supporting sympathetic political movements and criticising European governments and institutions.

UK: a US government programme explicitly funding organisations to promote particular Anglo-American political values.

Trade: Washington increasingly using tariffs and market access as geopolitical leverage.

There is a pattern: multiple pressures are simultaneously testing Europe’s cohesion. Who benefits from a fragmented Europe incapable of responding collectively to external pressure?

Whether the pressure comes from America, China, Russia, Morocco or somewhere else, Europe’s protection lies in collective strength rather than every country trying to negotiate alone.

In every way, he is the model of what I am teaching my son not to be: vile, small, cruel, ignorant, petty, corrupt. And he models it daily. Today’s example:
