In which Reform's @GHWTowler proposes British residents use Christopher Harborne’s Tether to pay for UK taxes. Move along, nothing to see here beyond Harborne's £5m donation to Farage and £25m to Reform. Ah, and Towler's crypto-politics adventure in Montenegro.

Truly top-quality analysis.

Plenty of “He rid Labour of entrenched antisemitism” stuff in the Guardian’s Starmer memorial - and not a single mention of Gaza. https://t.co/mshkumPWYm

Ukraine launches TrophyLab: we are opening access to captured Russian weapon technologies for our global partners. Every missile, drone, and vehicle seized on the battlefield is now a source of knowledge for the free world.

Through this secure platform, allied governments, labs, and defense tech manufacturers gain access to deep technical data, reports, and vulnerabilities. Users can also request physical equipment for testing, significantly shortening the development cycle for countermeasures.

What was meant to be the enemy's secret advantage is being dismantled to defend democracy. Join the platform:

We are relaunching the Visegrád Group!

I am pleased that the Prime Ministers of Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia have all accepted my invitation to Budapest and Gödöllő on 23 June.

Let us work together for a strong Central Europe!

@tom_nuttall Or skip it and go to the Sandbar, instead.

Totally understand why they (feel they) have to say that given questions on the durability of the plunge in oil prices. But please. Another hike when oil prices are essentially back to pre war levels?

Hey @KLM. I’ve flown with you three times in the last two years. Three times you’ve made me check in my bag at the last minute. Three times you’ve lost it. Now you want to do the same today…?

Avrupa yavaşlarken Avrupa merkez bankası enflasyon az yükseldi diye faiz artırdı. ABD’de ise güçlü ekonomik aktivite ve hedefin 2 katından fazla enflasyona rağmen faizlerin kısa vadede artması beklenmiyor. Tamamen yaklaşım farkı. Biri enflasyonu diğeri büyümeyi önceliklendiriyor.

This is tragic. In these turbulent times, who will be left to issue the ‘the EU is concerned’ statement?
