Left: President Trump insults Norway calling it a sh*thouse country Right: Visit Norway, the tourism board, trolls President Trump, displaying some of their best toilets on their Instagram 😅 My view: Trump chose to insult Norway. Visit Norway answered with humour, confidence and a showcase of its most beautiful loos. That’s how you turn an insult into an invitation. Congratulations to Norway for responding with such grace - and giving us another reason to visit. I've never been to Norway, but this is just another reason to visit 😁

Simon Heffer, not exactly a pinko liberal leftie, reviews the new Liz Truss book, and it should be framed in every loo in the land.

It’s a pretty good day waking up in Norway, knowing Trump hates us and that we have universal healthcare, clean water, free higher education AND Erling Haaland 🙂‍↕️

HOLY CRAP 🚨: Reporter: “Were you able to confirm yet that it was a U.S. missile [that hit the girls school in Iran]?” President Trump: “Who are you with?” Reporter: “BBC…” President Trump: “Fake BBC. You mean the ones that put AI in my mouth. The ones that gave me, that had me saying a statement that they now admit was not true?” “The ones that put terrible words in my mouth and then had to admit that it was fake?” “The ones that are now being sued for $5B… They’re another fake outfit.”

If you were an educator of this young woman, know you did it right. You taught more than places, names and dates. I bet she was a 'pleasure to have in class' and was enthusiastic about learning. That passion came from you. I hope your coffee/tea is perfect. I hope she becomes a Senator. #girlpower

“Today, if you openly criticise President Trump or his policies, you may lose your job, your licence to broadcast, your funding, your government contracts or possibly even your liberty. What kind of freedom is that? And it will probably come as no surprise to anyone that this unwinding of American democracy has enabled the largest upwards transfer of wealth in American history - billionaires have seen their wealth accelerate while the most vulnerable have seen their benefits and public services slashed”
Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, American democracy has been unwound at frightening speed. Analysis by the V-Dem Institute shows the rate of democratic backsliding in the US is faster than we saw in Hungary, India, Russia, or Serbia. And if we don’t take urgent action it could happen here too 99-percent.org/getting-your-…

I don’t think I ever believed I’d see a newspaper paragraph like this: President Trump ‘said he would welcome immigrants from Denmark but not from Norway “because ‌I didn’t get the Nobel Prize, so I don’t want anybody from Norway”.’

It’s not often I agree with Airbnb landlords, but I guess there’s a first time for everything.
All of these Airbnb conversations remind me of the time a host said not to kill the spiders in every corner of his rental, but wanted us to wash dishes and strip the beds at checkout.🫠

This woman in Florida and her family went to vote and the voting machine did the same thing that they’re doing in other states which is trying to pick a Republican when she picked the Democrat and it took her four tries to fix it. She reported the issue to the poll worker.

I watched a programme about it the other day. A mock up of a ‘home’ for the disabled which was more cost effective for the government. Unsuspecting people showed round the facility, full of propaganda and based on Nazi thoughts of the 30’s. Fooled some of them until all revealed.

Jenrick on TV this morning saying the country can’t afford to carry disabled people because it’s broke and welfare will bankrupt us. This was exactly the Nazi narrative of the 1930s

"My uncle invented radar, can you believe it?" No Donald, I can't, because he didn't. However, your uncle was a clever man. You just got the surname - and a chronically inflated ego, along with verbal diarrhoea.

Capitalism is much better than socialism because under socialism no one can even afford to buy elections
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Elon Musk spends $446 million on US midterm elections, becoming the largest individual political donor in modern American history.
