BREAKING: In a not stunning moment, Donald Trump, who is 78 years old, is clearly failing to pronounce words and repeatedly is stuttering. This is becoming embarrassing for Trump. Retweet so everyone sees Donald Trump is becoming senile.

Until there is new management and Robbie Gibb is removed from the board nothing will change at the BBC. Itโs pro Tory pro Reform and pro Trump bias is baked in.
Election night coverage was the worst Iโve ever seen. #skynews also bad.

1/3 Given the notable insect decline across most of the UK I urge all farmers, councils & landowners to delay cutting meadows, road verges etc to at least August @BumblebeeTrust have already said numbers of queen bumbles in spring were ok. We are now all seeing a lack of workers

2,000 years ago the Romans sailed all the way up the River Ver to what is now St Albans.
Today a disaster area, over abstracted for its precious waters by @AffinityWater and filled with sh*t by @thameswater
That is how we treat a chalk stream. 1 of only 225 in the entire world
E. coli levels in the #RiverVer chalk stream have been confirmed at six times the bathing standard. Our May samples show discharges from Markyate STW have contaminated the river. 2024 spills are 2400hrs and continuing, even in the current dry weather. riverver.co.uk/e-coli-levelsโฆ

Just Rishi Sunak, who promised a new era of "accountability" and "integrity", handing a major honour to his former investment banker boss, who had to resign as BBC Chairman after secretly helping to guarantee a ยฃ800,000 loan for Boris Johnson thetimes.com/uk/politics/artโฆ

Liz Truss is getting ยฃ115,000 a year tax free allowance for the rest of her life, for being the worst, shortest serving PM ever.
It should be revoked she is a disgrace and does not deserve a penny, RT if you agree.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Liz Truss isnโt receiving a 115k per year for the rest of her life.
She is, however eligible to claim the Public Duty Costs Allowance - further information about the PDCA is available here;

Surely this can't be true?
So it turns out Rishi Sunak originally refused to go to the D-Day commemorations *at all* and only agreed to go for part of it, in a "compromise" with the French.

One of the greatest privileges of the office of Prime Minister is to be there to honour those who served, yet Rishi Sunak abandoned them on the beaches of Normandy.
It is a total dereliction of duty and shows why this Conservative government just has to go.

'How much is child allowance?'
'That I'm afraid I don't know.'
'Sorry, is your title not Minister for Children?'
Minister for Children, David Johnston, admits he's not sure how much the child allowance is.
@NickFerrariLBC is astonished.

This is how the NYT describes thousands of bombs being dropped on children, grandparents, pregnant women, hundreds of thousands of people who are desperately fleeing from where they were told to find safety. The propaganda in the US is off the charts.

Epic incompetence, sincere belief that rules donโt apply to him or desperate attention-seeking? Itโs like he never went away.

This coward thinks it's ok to chase a terrified young stag for miles on end, causing him to collapse from exhaustion before shooting him dead.
This isn't 'sport'.
Please RT - expose this sick excuse for a pastime and get his face everywhere.

๐งตYes, thatโs right! The budget for cleaning up the illegal landfill waste to #rescuehoadswood is ยฃ10 million. ๐ฒ
cยฃ3m of this is landfill tax (pocketed by the criminals) and VAT is cยฃ1m. This cost doesnโt include the value of irreplaceable ancient woodland! ๐๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ (1/6)
We had a big meeting last night with @EnvAgencySE & others.
A local contractor provided a quote for a clean up of the 27,000 tonnes of landfill waste dumped in our #SSSI
How much do you think it will cost, including landfill tax & contingency, for @DefraGovUK to clear it up?
68%ยฃ10 million
20%ยฃ7 million
12%ยฃ4 million

If it wasnโt for free movement, I wouldnโt have met my now wife and my twin brother wouldnโt have settled down with a family in France. Loads more benefits especially in science and engineering where the best minds need to work together. Bring free movement back for young people.
This is a good idea. Young people deserve the same opportunities so many of us benefitted from at the beginning of our adult lives, and UK industries like the arts and hospitality would benefit too.

Marcus Decker protested about climate change by climbing a bridge. He has served 16 months in prison and now faces deportation to Germany. Is this what we are now, as a country? 160,000 people have signed the petition, including me.
