@vonderleyen @eucopresident Gosh. Ursula von der Leyen announces that she's opening her fundamentals cluster.
Never forget that Uschi is a Gynaecologist.

Today, Uschi von der Leyen announces she's opening her fundamentals cluster.
Only 2% of EU citizens speak English in their daily lives, & it's not the same English as Uschi's.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Today, the European Union took a major step forward.

All Member States agreed to open the first accession negotiations cluster with Ukraine and Moldova.

At the first Intergovernmental Conference on Monday, we will open the cluster on fundamentals; the backbone of the accession process.

It covers the core values and principles on which the EU is built, from the rule of law to strong democratic institutions.

This is a recognition of the determination, courage and hard work shown by both countries in advancing reforms, even in the face of immense challenges.

And a signal that the EU’s offer of peace, stability and opportunity is unmatchable.

Enlargement is a strategic choice.

By bringing our nations closer together, we strengthen peace, security and prosperity across our continent.

In a world marked by growing uncertainty, a larger European Union is in our common interest.

Enlargement remains one of the EU’s greatest success stories and our best investment in our shared future.

@DuvalMarion6 @GuiraudInd L'histoire de la princesse des 2 Siciles rend Bardella plutôt sympa, je trouve. Au lieu d'un facho comme president on aura un personnage d'opérette.

@SMO_VZ Not just PR agencies. Associated Press published absurd lies about the "attacks" on the theatre & maternity hospital in Mariupol. They even employed a computer "expert" to calculate how many hundreds died in the bombed theatre. No bodies were found.

@brivael bourgeois Francine dit n'importe quoi, mais le graphique est une bonne carte des médias français. Pujadas en haut, les Duhamel un peu a droite, Polony un peu plus bas, mais tous dans le même champ.

@TAmTrib "the savage .. can be cowed if you are stronger and show yourself ready to use such force, but he cannot be reasoned with."

True. Iran has learned this lesson, and is applying this knowledge to the benefit of us all.

@BlobWarriorUK @AllisonPearson @jemmm85517813 No. Warm mansions, wine & steak are the fantasies of normal people. Ed fantasises about temperatures dropping 0.0001°C thanks to his ban on underfloor heating.
He's more deranged than you can imagine.

@AlistairCarns "We ask soldiers to fight for this country"
Also for Afghanistan, Libya, Ukraine, Israel & probably Taiwan, Estonia & (why not?) Greenland.
Everything you say could be true, but nobody cares. Why should we?

[geoffchambers @gmchambers]

@thelastround67 @PatrickChristys You're right, but you see where this leads logically?
Since any Middle East citizen is likely to have his country bombed/invaded by the West, better let them all come over here where they'll be safe.

@aDissentient @SDPhq @WilliamClouston Prices fell at privatisation because the new owners got monopolies at bargain prices. They could afford to be generous to customers - for a while.

@vicgerami @mrmrly44557 That's unfair to Boy Scouts. The big difference is that German Nazis felt the need to lie about their atrocities, while Israelis don't care.
Boy Scouts are taught not to lie.

@xochilily @TheConsultant18 @lily20087360 It comes from the Old Testament. Mohamed (or Allah, who dictated it to him) was steeped in Jewish religious thought (unlike modern journalists & commenters.)

@VigilantFox What does Canadian law say about the passage in 1 Kings where Israel demands from the inhabitants of Gaza solid gold haemorrhoids before God will lift a plague He's inflicted on them?
Seems pretty anti-semitic to me.

@patrickdaoun I'm glad you asked.

Because the fact that you did provides us with the answer.

@_HelenDale Where's the joke? @5Pillarsuk says homosexual acts are forbidden in Islam, but who said anything about homosexual acts? Not Ladybird.

@KingBobIIV Vikings didn't do that. Most of it fell down in the 18th century.

@Unveiled_ChinaX "..a direct, calculated threat to Western global security"

..because of a meeting between the leaders of 2 countries, neither of which have attacked any western country, ever.
