Putin Meets With Witkoff and Kushner for Nearly Five Hours and the two sides did not reach any specific compromises, an aide to President Vladimir V. Putin said, as the United States pushes a plan to end the war in Ukraine. Let me translate for you what this means. There was
"So far, no compromise option has been found, but some American developments look more or less acceptable, but they need to be discussed. Some of the wording that was offered to us does not suit us." Russia pushes back on American peace proposal for #Ukraine.

Chris Mason is widely regarded across the political divide as one of the most objective journalists in Westminster. Labour’s co-ordinated attacks on him for accurately reporting how Reeves mislead the public over certain aspects of her Budget shows how utterly desperate they are.

Another part of @RachelReevesMP cv that does not stand scrutiny. Having lied about her real experience, she has now been untruthful about the public finances in order to spend more on welfare and increase taxes on everyone else. She has to go. #LabourLies

I am pretty sure that by the letter of the law, Tulip Siddiq is now disqualified from sitting as an MP under the Representation of the People Act 1981. "Whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere." "While unlawfully at large."

I played for the England junior chess team, was British Squad Champion and London Junior Champion, but had never heard of Rachel Reeves, even though she was only a year above me. Newspaper claims that she was British U14 girls' champion are false; she came 26th out of 34 in that
My dad taught me how to play chess at the age of 7 and since then I've had the chess bug. Chess has taught me so many things which are useful in politics from being strategic to giving me that competitive streak.
