    Wow. You have to watch this, it just happened live on #SkyNews A Portuguese woman, in GB for 20 yrs, papers refused... "I gave this country my youth - I looked after your children, your elderly. You must make me part of this process, I have no voice. You can't just kick me out."

    No one has ever called out, with such clarity and sheer authority the "glaring omissions" of UK broadcasters who refuse to discuss Brexit ("the obvious economic cause of major change in this country)" as @maitlis just has here in one minute πŸ‘πŸ‘ Absolutely this πŸ’―πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

    So I just subtitled exactly, word for word, what Macron said about sovereignty and Johnson - and not the mangled version you might get in the UK media (or from certain UK politicians) πŸ˜€

    Gobsmacking stuff. Vance has the nerve to lecture us Europeans on democracy (criticizing among others Romania which cancelled its election after obvious Russian interference) The same Vance whose boss didn't accept the result of a democratic election and incited people to riot

    A must listen πŸ‘‡ "Let's be clear, if not Brussels, it's Moscow. It's your decision. Putin will pull Europe apart if we don't trust each other. Europe needs a single voice, not a dozen different ones" The most pro EU speech ever from someone who knows what's at stakeπŸ‘‡

    "Eggs have come down 400%" : Trump πŸ‘‡ How daft is that. If they came down just 100% they would be free. Their coming down by 400% means, if anything, the shop 𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐬 π˜πŽπ” three times what they used to cost to take them However did Americans elect such a noodlehead ?

    Here's exactly what Macron just said replying to the Truss "friend or foe" comment (my Eng subtitles πŸ‘‡) (although I think his silence and look when asked the question says it all πŸ˜€πŸ‘‡)

    Supremely poignant moment on Omaha Beach as Macron gives veterans "in the name of the French Republic" its very highest distinction - Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur... Goosebumps

    My goodness, this must be the mother of all Freudian slips - by the Russian ambassador to the UN just now πŸ‘‡ "The corpses in Boutcha that didn't exist before the Russian troops arrived ... er, er, left, sorry - before they left ..."
