Dancing, singing, playing piano, maths, foreign literature, football, equestrian sports... these are just a few things I don't do.

🇨🇳 As more Americans visit China, many are left awed. Like many middle-class Americans, Paul 🎙️iampaullee pays 40-50% in taxes back home. But here's the difference: in China, that investment is visibly returned to the people—NOT to a select few. A revealing perspective shift. 🌿

This is a prime example of Macron spreading conspiracy theories about what China is doing, which can only lead to terribly bad decisions. It is true that Douyin in China has a mandatory "youth mode" for under 14-year-olds (much like YouTube has YouTube Kids), with daily usage

One reason Baroness Hallett moved on from the Dawn Sturgess inquiry to chair the Covid inquiry instead is doubtless that it paid better. Don't think Lord Hughes will get as much as £835,000 after taking over from Hallett, although I'm sure he'll be well recompensed all the same.
Looking at the Covid Inquiry costs and the profligacy is insane This needs to face a full investigation - it is burning public money on nonsense This is insane

@lloyd_rm @PoliticsJOE_UK @TheGreenParty Can you explain why you supported the pager attacks in Lebanon? One of the single largest mass terrorist attacks in history that killed and maimed children?

There is a group of 'Socialists' on Social Media who believe it is their job to belittle and mock others who identify as Socialist. Are they just trying to feed their own egos or something more sinister? Why not just discuss, robustly but with respect?

The "something controversial" this woman did was post a tweet celebrating the fact that she got her PhD.

I actually didn't know that: "The Charter of the United Nations specifically establishes an enemy state clause, stipulating that if any of the fascist or militaristic states like Germany, Italy, or Japan takes any step to once again implement a policy of aggression, the founding

This is absolutely appalling. I am genuinely shocked. It is not the IDF it is the Greek coastguard. No matter your views on immigration, I presume you do not support deliberately drowning anybody. Let alone what are plainly families with women and young children.
You're watching Greek coastguards deliberately ramming asylum seeker families in the Aegean today. Attempted murder by any normal human standard. Fck these Nazis and the governments that fund them. No human being is illegal.

The 14 people murdered with machine guns by British soldiers in Derry in 1972 weren’t “terrorists”, they were unarmed civilians marching for civil rights. Baha Mousa, beaten and tortured to death by Brit soldiers in Iraq in 2003 wasn’t a “terrorist”, he was a hotel receptionist.
Our heroes in uniform deserve protection, not persecution. They shouldn’t have to think of the lawyer behind the terrorist before pulling the trigger. Labour’s legislation will open the floodgates to vexatious IRA claims and leave our veterans living in fear of a knock on the

Top tips for reading the news: 1. It didn’t happen. 2. If it did happen it didn’t happen the way they said it happened. That is all.

Another superior Chinese tech product being labelled a security threat. Literally the only people using WeChat outside of China are Chinese people. Why are the British so worried about it?

The funny thing is I’m not even talking about “how good China is”. I corrected a mistranslation in a clip which you claimed happened and haven't taken down that tweet. I live in Xinjiang, speak some Uyghur, and have actually been to one of those mosques. You’ve never reported
@96Stats You're literally a propagandist who whitewashes the bad actions of the CCP, if you had the courage to criticize the CCP publicly about anything at all then maybe people could take you more seriously. And yes, someone living outside of China is more trustworthy

We're on the edge of Europe's most humiliating moment in history. The White House is apparently about to achieve a comprehensive peace deal with Russia which Kirill Dmitriev, the Russian negotiator, say is "a much broader framework [than just a ceasefire agreement], basically

This is astonishing. The article makes plain that by "British waters" it means the 200 mile Exclusive Economic Zone. Russian vessels, including military vessels, have every right to enter the EEZ. British military vessels enter Russia's EEZ all the time. https://t.co/qOZIVkW3cU
