The stinking Kiev bastard is trying to derail the settlement of the conflict. He wants war. Well, now at least he’ll have to stay in hiding for the rest of his worthless life.

Seeing this dude all over my timeline and having listened to a minute of him talking, it seems excessively clear that hitting your face with a hammer does, in fact, have its downsides.

.@michaeljknowles grills Clavicular on ‘bonesmashing’: MK: “You punch yourself in the face?” Clavicular: “Yes…I used to use a hammer, but my parents would go into my bathroom and take it away.” MK: “Are there any downsides to hitting yourself in the head with a hammer?”

I’m delighted that Alaa Abd El-Fattah is back in the UK and has been reunited with his loved ones, who must be feeling profound relief. I want to pay tribute to Alaa’s family, and to all those that have worked and campaigned for this moment. Alaa's case has been a top priority

Why are EU bureaucrats bragging about this? I don't know anyone who's actually proud or supportive of the EU's actions against @X. It's another step towards irrelevancy for us.
