What's at stake in the local elections? 45 mins of cross-party discussion on Mayday with me, @greenmiranda, @steverichards14 and @iainmartin1. ☢️☣️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️☣️☢️ Do not - in any circumstances - listen to this podcast if you struggle with listening to people with differing

This thought is enough to keep me awake at night but are many western national elites now so ignorant of the Beijing regime, so economically fragile and so desperately short-termist that they could choose more dependence on China, so as to reduce their exposure to America?

Despite Trump’s humiliating climbdown, the long term consequences of the last week are huge. He has succeeded in showing the world that China is a more reliable trading partner than the US. And that is disastrous for the entire west.

The House of Commons has been poorer, duller and meaner without @Jacob_Rees_Mogg. If there is now a by-election in North East Somerset, I hope the people of that loveliest corner of England will take the opportunity to return the great patriot to Parliament. https://t.co/JKzbpWTQho

Labour MPs' reaction to big cuts in welfare and international aid has been very muted... and, so, in the latest edition of the @notanother1pod we ask... DOES ANY PARTY CARE ABOUT THE POOR? https://t.co/8iYPg1h7ZX

More panicked than obsessed

Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage

The Labour Party have posted about Reform over 40 times on social media in the past week. Obsessed.

One of the most important threads published in recent times by any politician

Britain’s prisons are being overrun by Islamist gangs. Self-styled ‘Muslim Brotherhood’ leaders control wings in many high-security prisons. And instead of isolating them, the system is protecting them - not officers or the public. Here’s how it’s happening. A thread (1/11)👇

While there's truth to this... We are still obsessed with America's (real) faults rather than our much bigger weaknesses... 1. It's Europe that's in fastest economic decline. 2. It's Europe that can't defend itself because its welfare, climate and immigration policies are so

A very good piece. Trump's tariffs policy is so rushed, so inconsistent and so divorced from America's other global intereste that it could easily overwhelm all the gains from all of his other (largely sensible) DOMESTIC-orientated policies. Mad. Mad. Mad.

The rhetoric from Trump tonight - billing his tariffs policy as of historic consequence - is the most worrying thing so far. He's committing big to a policy that could easily undo (and some) the considerable economic benefits of his environmental, deregulatory and employment
