Democracy dies slowly. Then all at once. Don’t let apathy be your consent. My latest blog post: intgom.com/a-manifesto-fo…

@Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband At this rate, UK will be at least 5 years behind - shameful! Nuclear reactors smaller than a semi truck to be tested in Idaho theregister.com/2025/07/07/tra… via @theregister

@PowertoolWorld Placed order last Sat. 2-3 days you said. Nothing since then. Tried calling but your automated system cuts off calls after 15 mins waiting if not answered. Where is my order?

@Outlook You've been down for around 12 hours now - and counting. What's going on and when will you fix it?

Turns out rusty HTML skills DO come in handy, even with AI at your side. Been testing tools to streamline how I work, play and invest. Logging the good bits (and building a travelogue) over at intgom.com.

@freetrade Why don't you answer your emails? First, you email me about a balance in a closed account then won't reply to me when I query it.

@British_Airways So I provided all of the details you asked for via DM just to be met with complete silence. Escalation it is.

@British_Airways Already done that - check your records. All I get is flippant responses that case closed etc. Giving you one more chance to address my concerns before escalating to CAA/ADR.

@British_Airways Partner and I were downgraded from Club Europe to Euro Traveller on both domestic legs of a £4.5k business return to Tampa. Received only £73.84 in refund. No response to why so low. Case Ref 06675645. Can someone please review fairly before I escalate?

It’s another historic day for European integration. 🇪🇪 Estonia, 🇱🇻 Latvia, & 🇱🇹 Lithuania have now unplugged from Russia’s power grid. 🧵 Here’s how our new connection as part of Europe will turbocharge energy security. (Also, check out Estonia’s nature-inspired pylons!)

We did it! 🇱🇻 🇪🇪 🇱🇹 ⚡️ 🇵🇱 🇪🇺 Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania are now part of the European electricity system. Another important step to increase our independence. Grateful to all those who worked hard to make this day happen!

Today we connect the Baltic states to the continental European electricity grid. We’re cutting the last remaining links with Russia. Freedom from threats and blackmail, at last. This is a historic day ↓

This week alone, Russia has launched over 1,260 aerial bombs, nearly 750 attack drones, and more than 10 missiles of various types against our people. Russia’s military production, which enables such terror, relies on three key factors: sanctions evasion schemes, without which Russia would lack critical components; high oil prices, which should rightfully be lowered; and an insufficient number of our long-range missiles and drones. We are grateful to all partners who are strengthening sanctions, but more global efforts are needed to decrease Russia’s oil industry capabilities. We will continue to expand the production of our missiles and drones – and we urge all partners to invest in Ukraine’s defense industry, because these are investments in the protection of life.

@Bushra1Shaikh Compared to what or whom exactly? Which place or region is it that is richest in morals that the west should aspire to? The west isn't perfect but it's a damn sight better than most other places in the world

Totally false. Untrue. These are lies coming from Russian media. I completely self-funded my humanitarian trip to Ukraine. There was no funding from USAID and certainly no personal payments.

Here’s another one #DigitalSoldiers! Keep them coming. It’s a lot of fraud and corruption to pick apart. Also list the names of people who got the money! #USAID has apparently been one big slush fund for anything the Left wanted.

These are lies coming from Russian media. I completely self-funded my humanitarian trip to Ukraine. There was no funding from USAID and certainly no payment of any kind. 💯 percent false.

In my interview to @piersmorgan I stated that although we are in a better position than at the beginning of the war, we remain in a difficult situation, fighting not only against Putin but also for the continued support of our allies.

Communication between captured North Korean soldiers and Ukrainian investigators continues. We are establishing the facts. We are verifying all the details. The world will learn the full truth about how Russia is exploiting such guys, who grew up in a complete information vacuum, utterly unaware of Ukraine, and who are being used by Russia solely to prolong and escalate this war. Only Russia needs this war. I am grateful to all our warriors who are defending Ukraine's positions. I am also grateful to everyone in the world who is helping us to protect lives and our independence. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Stop lying: Andrew McIntyre, 39, set up a Telegram channel called "Southport Wake Up" in the immediate aftermath of the knife attack at a children's dance class in the Merseyside town on 29 July. Liverpool Crown Court heard the case involved a "sinister aspect" of violence which took place in parts of the UK last summer. McIntyre, of Rufford, near Ormskirk, Lancashire, had admitted encouraging violent disorder and possession of a knife in an earlier hearing. The Telegram channel was identified by the group Hope Not Hate as a "catalyst for and origin of a series of posts" concerning incidents of violence, prosecutor Arthur Gibson said. The court heard McIntyre shared content from a site called Tommy Robinson/Britain First/For Britain about a protest in Southport on 30 July. He also posted a map after adding: "Mosque at the top of Hart St." In a later post he wrote: "Rise Up English Lads. 8pm tomorrow St Luke's Rd Southport." Hours before violence broke out in Southport on 30 July he posted a "clear threat to police", writing: "Message to All...Stand in our way, even if you're just doing your job...prepare to fall." The day after the disorder, McIntyre posted: "Well done last night lads, to all you heavy hitters. "Are you ready for Round 2???... Liverpool Mosque, West Derby Road, Friday 8pm." McIntyre was also originally charged with encouraging murder after posting a link to a YouTube video of Home Secretary Yvette Cooper with the caption: "We're going to hang this woman and her associates." August. A knife was found hidden in the boot of his car and when his home was searched officers found weapons and a copy of Hitler's Mein Kampf, the court heard.

Russians struck Zaporizhzhia with aerial bombs. It was a deliberate strike on the city. As of now, dozens of people are reported wounded. All are receiving the necessary assistance. Tragically, we know of 13 people killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Regrettably, the number of casualties may increase. There is nothing more cruel than launching aerial bombs on a city, knowing that ordinary civilians will suffer. Russia must be put under pressure for its terror. The protection of lives in Ukraine must be supported. Only through strength can such a war be ended with a lasting peace.
