Not much new here, typical sour left wing narrative.
The left really needs a makeover if they want to challenge for power in the future….
Great use of the British language in ways that deliver today’s topics succinctly and without hype.
Could you dawn any harder on Trump, Johnathan?
Sickening episode on Trump lording it over the Middle East.
Disappointing.
Rigorous scrutiny of the erosion of the Right to Free Speech in the US. It is being denied to those who mock, disagree or do not align with the Trump administration’s agenda. Something Dark is clearly coming. Thank you the Guardian. Complete contrast to the shallow lighthearted whitewashing coverage of the BBC’s ridiculous Americast.
