"Keir Starmer will not risk riling Donald Trump by challenging him over his attack on Ukraine’s president, ..."

This is what I feared. Starmer, like the other European leaders, are totally out of their depth, and don't know what they're dealing with.

1/🧵theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
Other world leaders are simply not up to the task of dealing with the out of control monster, that is Donald Trump. They are treating him as if he is rational and sane, which he most definitely is not.
2/
I haven't been trying to draw attention to Trump's very clear psychopathic traits, simply because I don't like him or his politics. It is because to effectively deal with Trump, and the global situation he is creating, you've got to understand him.

'Donald Trump escalated his attacks on Volodymyr Zelenskyy, calling the Ukrainian president “a dictator” and warning that he “better move fast” or he “won’t have a country left”.'

As I've said before, Donald Trump is an actual psychopath.

1/🧵theguardian.com/world/2025/feb…
One of the key psychopathic traits Trump has, which needs to be recognized, is his total disregard for the truth, and pathological lying.

This is so dangerous. Trump is not a rational or sane human being. He only appears to be.

2/threadreaderapp.com/thread/1887957…
It's entirely mistaken to see this in terms of politics, or any other rational agenda.

Trump is a dangerous psychopath, with no grasp of reality. He is totally detached from reality, and is a major threat to the world.

"Politicians who deliberately lie could be forced from office in Wales"

I commend these proposals in Wales, and I have been arguing for these types of rules and laws for a very long time.

1/🧵theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
It is beyond absurd, that politicians, not just in Wales and the UK, but globally, can tell bare-faced lies with impunity, and there are no consequences for them lying in this shameless way.
2/
There are practically no other areas of professional and business life, where people in paid positions, or public life, are allowed to shamelessly lie with impunity. In most other areas of public life, lying in this way, is both illegal, and a breach of professional ethics.

The thing is, we do have plain-speaking experts.

Perhaps the best is Professor Kevin Anderson @KevinClimate.

I know of no one better at explaining the realities of climate change, to either the public or to politicians.

In fact, he is far too good at it.
1/🧵
So good is @KevinClimate at explaining the unvarnished reality of climate change, in plain language, that he's hardly ever allowed to speak to the public, given a TV or radio slot, or allowed to address and brief politicians.

2/
There are very few, if any better qualified to give that briefing, being that @KevinClimate is a top climate scientist, and his speciality, is what government climate policy, will actually give us in reality. The most important facet.

The Reform MP @TiceRichard is trying to seriously mislead the public about anthropogenic climate, with outright sophistry, and lies.

What Tice is relying on, is that only a few percent of the public are scientifically literate, much less on actual climate science.
1/🧵
In other words, few people would spot, that @TiceRichard is stating absolute falsehoods as fact. I will very quickly deal with the liar Tice, and prove he is a liar, setting out to mislead the public.

2/researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/POST…
In this interview, the liar Tice, falsely claims he's read the @IPCC_CH AR6 and it says "even if you get to net zero tomorrow, it'll make no difference to sea level rise, between 200 years and a thousand years". I will now quote the AR6, full report on the tweet below.

@KarolusWangus I can't explain why you've got an "aching ass", but I can explain in huge detail why no progress has been made on addressing the climate and ecological crisis on almost every level. Please note false accounting doesn't count, and much of this can be laid at the door of the US.
1/
@KarolusWangus The Keeling Curve is the knife that cuts right through the lie, that progress has been made on reducing emissions, and claims that progress has been made, is a big fat lie. The Keeling Curve shows a steady increase in atmospheric CO2.

2/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keeling_C…
@KarolusWangus "This graph shows ... not only has humanity not succeeded in reducing emissions following warnings on climate change in the late 1980s and 90s, but the emissions have also grown substantially, and we have now emitted as much since 1990 as in all of history before that time."
