Kaga was sunk at Midway as part of the Kido Butai, yet here it is.

Japan's carrier plan is taking shape! Under the current plan, JS Izumo and JS Kaga are being converted to operate F-35Bs, with square bows, heat-resistant decks, and reworked interiors. Izumo is expected to start F-35B operations in 2027 and Kaga in 2028. On land, Japan's first F-35Bs have been at Nyutabaru AB in Kyushu since August 2025, part of a plan to buy 42 F-35Bs in total. Kaga has already hosted both USMC and British F-35Bs.
Put like that perhaps it was a dead cat. xitter.cf/GuidoFawkes/status/211…

Time to post my biannual “how artificially compressed are British wages”.
Rising minimum wage and a 50k+ p/a tax bracket that runs to 40% of earnings, and hasn’t adjusted for inflation. This form of artificial wage compression has turned everyone in Britain into low productivity tax cattle - you have zero incentive to become anything other here.
This is also a form of ambition and productivity compression.

Burnham's £2 bus fare relies on a £400m rainforest loan not yet agreed conservativepost.co.uk/burnh…

Labour have announced £874m to end homelessness - something Andy Burnham failed to do in Manchester.
And yet at the weekend, criminals let out of Prison early under this government were reportedly handed tents to live in as there was no housing for them.
My questions to the Minister:
1) will part of this £874m be used for criminals they have let out onto the streets?
2) If there isn’t anywhere to go for those leaving prison then where is the accommodation coming from to house the other homeless people?
Or has all the accommodation gone to illegal immigrants?

I remember when the #DublinConvention was signed. It was loaded against asylum returns to France from the start - and remained so until we left. @Nigel_Farage is right. Suggestions from @andyburnham that the boats started because of #Brexit are for the birds.

Burnham in 2019 understood concerns in Makerfield.

There is nothing socialist about a system of free movement that is used by multi-nationals to undermine wages. WATCH my Brexit speech today.

Chaotic lobby briefing eventually clarifies that just because Andy Burnham said he would hold a referendum before reviving free movement with the EU, that does not mean he will

Congratulations to my friend @LulaOficial on his electoral victory.
Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil.
Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving.
We will remain by your side for the years to come.
Together we will keep working closely for free and open trade.
A rules-based global order.
And strong ambitions for our climate.

It is a “risk” because the media always play up the noise and protests. During the 2022 royal tour of Jamaica, the media obsessed endlessly over literally about 20 protestors at the High Commission, while ignoring wholesale the enthusiastic welcome by thousands in Trench Town

This is the queue that British citizens have to face to get from Britain into a British sovereign territory thanks to @UKLabour.
