@thehistoryguy The British Government abandoned Afghanistan last August. The British Army had to be evacuated. The cost of failure was crippling. The British Broadcasting Corporation remained behind, and is still reporting from Kabul. The value of the BBC’s license fee - priceless.

@atrupar Breaking news. As the biggest crowd in the history of crowds gathered to salute the greatest President of all time, Donald Trump descended the greatest biggest steepest and slippiest ramps in the world. As crowds cheered, trump shouted. “Nobody does ramps like me.”

@TomKwhite @PriyamvadaGopal @leaveme_4lone @BStarvic @AyoCaesar If professor Gopal was trying to say that, then why didn’t she make herself clearer in her original tweet? It doesn’t take a professor of linguistics to read the tweet and realise it conveys a completely different meaning to the one she’s now claiming. Quite the opposite, infact

By supporting young British volunteers thinking of travelling to Ukraine to take up arms - Liz Truss has effectively called for a Jihad in defence of democracy. Presumably the Home Office will prosecute the British fighters and strip them of their citizenship on their return,

@Keir_Starmer Is this a fair comparison? Just as the Bennites were partially responsible for ushering in Thatcherism, the corbynistas opposition to the so-called neo-liberalism of EU, could lead to a hard Brexit and even more deregulation?

@Charliedesigns3 @sarahcpr @WWF “As soon as Trump is elected, you’ll be the first to go.” ? If it wasn’t for the American accents, one might think this video was shot at a political rally in Germany, in the quaint city of Nuremberg, circa 1938.

@ianbremmer Every war has its defining images and history never quite repeats itself. This footage of Afghans clinging onto this plane will become seared in memory. Not the helicopters flying overhead the US embassy. But both are are a cataclysmic defeat for America and its allies.

You gotta hand it to those terrrorists. They’re pretty sneaky. Al Qaeda flew planes into buildings. ISIS beheaded people. And now terrorists are handing out hot steamed Korean kimchi buns in Seattle from pop-up food stalls. When the food stalls pop up the shooting starts.

Nice to know that Trump is stopping over in the UK for a cup of tea and a round of golf before flying off to meet his best friend Putin in Moscow. Not so much a special relationship. More like a cucumber sandwich between important business meetings. #ForeignPolicy w*nk

@Nooseberg @StigAbell @jenjeffiner Here’s one reason why we ended up here. The U.S lifted regulations on tv news requiring impartiality in 1987, which lead to Fox News and their ‘fair and balanced’ fact-free opinions. And here’s three more...Google, (not a publisher) YouTube (not a broadcaster.) and Facebook.

@_RichardHall The clips they played from my interview with Elsheik in court were just the tip of the iceberg. He described events - including torture and an execution - in such granular detail he must have been there. Condemned by his own words. The pen is mightier than the sword.

While I’m against the president’s call for the death penalty in the new war against opioid abuse in America - I presume the sackler family - the owners of Purdue Pharma and pushers of OxyContin - will at least do some serious jail time.

Breaking news. Finland breaks away from Russia and declares independence. President Trump calls Putin and offers military assistance. In other news, the British Government asks Trump if it can get its money back, seeing as though America never delivered those Polaris missiles.

Here’s a doomsday scenario. With 3 million COVID 19 cases and rising, how many will it take before President Trump announces a state of national emergency and cancels the presidential election? Maybe that’s why he’s so keen to ease lockdown.

@StaceyDooley . Your comments on Panorama were both accurate and pertinent. The index finger salute has been widely adopted by ISIS fighters. Just because the gesture is also used by Muslims to denote the oneness of Allah should not prevent journalist from speaking truth to power.
