NATO Article 5 has only been invoked once; by the USA after 9/11.
NATO Article 5 and collective defence: Putin probably licking his lips given Trump’s craven alignment with Moscow over the assault on Ukraine. Serious thinking needed by European, Baltic and Scandinavian Allies. #Trump #Putin #NATO #Ukraine

Such prescience. She had him right all along.
10 years later and it’s still one of the best attack lines in a presidential debate. And now everyone knows she was right.

Trump’s cosy deal with Putin to supply the USA with desperately needed diesel is intended to cast Zelensky as the villain if he continues to target Russian oil refineries. However…

Thanks to Trump’s illegal war against Iran, diesel has just exceeded Β£2 per litre ($10+ per US gallon) in the UK for the first time ever, a rise of 40.5% since February. This increase, reflected around the world, affects the price of everything transported by land, sea and air.

Trump and the GOP have been working hard to keep this video from being reposted over social media. Repost it, keep it alive. Too many people aren't paying attention to who Donald Trump is. He's a liar and by his own words, he must be held accountable.πŸ€₯

I joined the Royal Navy only three years later.

From the office of the President of the United States of America. A child psychologist would have a field day studying Trump’s behaviour. I’d read their report with great interest.
This is simply vile. Trump is a loser, and an embarrassment to our country.

Inhumane facilities like this are banned in the EU and UK, as is the sale of any meat reared in such barbarous conditions.

ZULU Sqn have completed accuracy trials on their Seacat MUUV, confirming the sensor performance needed for modern mine warfare. Launching from civilian infrastructure means it can be deployed quickly wherever operations demand. #RoyalNavy #HybridNavy

So hilarious I had to re-post it. MAGA at its most typical.
Jason Selvig: β€œWhat’s Donald Trump’s greatest accomplishment in his first year and a half?”

Trump supporter: β€œTrump’s done a lot of things. Number one, a lot of people don’t realize, he got our country back because we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain the last 125 years, they destroyed the evidence” JS: β€œWait, we’ve been under the reign of Great Britain?” TS: β€œThat’s why King Charles come here, he thought he was going to manipulate Donald Trump. And Trump went along with him cause that’s who he is. But that’s what the 250 years was really about was we got our country back. You just gon have to research just like I did. It’s true”

Now we know why Carney, quite understandably, refused to capitulate to Trump’s last minute demands.
For anybody still wondering why Canada could not bow to US demands in the recent trade talks …

Much of the UK news media seems to have swallowed and sensationalised talk by Conservative MP Chris Philp of a French patrol ship firing β€œwarning shots” in French territorial waters whereas it was simply routine small arms practice against a towed target.
