FT exclusive:
Russia has shared targeting intelligence with Iran, including locations of American military assets in the Middle East, as Tehran unleashes a barrage of drone and missile strikes against the US and its allies, said people familiar with the matter.

Did Kremlin goons dictate Friday’s Daily Mail headline?
Excellent thread
Daily Mail headline: IRAN WAR: DAY FOUR U.S. lambasts 'hand-wringing, pearl-clutching' Starmer as Kemi says he's 'scared' of his own voters
The Sun: INACTION THIS DAY PM wont hit Iran back Rift grows with US Prez
Have we woken up in America? The deeply unpatriotic Daily Mail and Sun seem to now be supporting a menace of a foreign leader over our own govt and national security. They are really only loyal to their own vested interests. Which are a direct threat to our own. The routine betrayal is sickening.
Former newspaper Telegraph uses a genteel stock image to illustrate phone snatching. If only there was actual footage available.
I've just signed @londoncycling.bsky.social's petition calling for action on cycle theft...
40,000 bikes are stolen every year in London. This has to change. Join me in calling for action: action.lcc.org.uk/theft
To reiterate this point: during the Q&A Farage dismissed very arrogantly a perfectly fair question from the brilliant Anna Gross of the FT and then took the piss out of the paper. If you want to persuade people that you don’t have predilections towards bullying it was not ideal. It was grim.

Trump on stage in Davos. Settle in, this could be longer than a Ken Dodd show
It’s a real shame that Nigel Farage is too unwell to do interviews the morning after Donald Trump threatens us with sanctions.
Here he is with “the bravest man he ever met”. He campaigned to make Trump President, and has spent the last year enjoying all the chaos he has caused.

👏 Good to see some leadership
A New York Times video analysis of an ICE agent’s fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis contradicts the Trump administration’s account. Watch our investigation here. nyti.ms/4sEdp2r
For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

It's cold out there and many of the roads are extremely slippery - so please take care while travelling. 🥶🥶
TfL teams have been out with our cycle lane 'gritters' - named 'Chris Gritty', 'David Plowie' & 'Spready Salted' - helping keep our bike lanes ice free.
Correct. Quite a sight!
A liar, sacked for lying but still paid for his views, along with a former newspaper which has printed fake stories, are attacking the BBC which they say misled viewers by showing something said by a world-leading liar.
I’m confused. A liar is accusing the BBC of misleading viewers by showing something said by the biggest liar of all. What’s the motive?
Flipping on to Newsnight, isn’t this the same Revolt UK bloke who was on with Laura Kuennsburg on Sunday? Who needs GBeebies?
A perfectly reasonable article based on people who know what they’re talking about is attracting a depressing amount of troll climate change denying amoeba in the comments www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athlet...

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.

● "Free speech is under assault in Britain."
● Free speech laws are "a sledgehammer that misses the nut" because they censor opinion.
●"At what point did we become North Korea?" He asked.

Sounds good. Press/broadcasting has melted into social media and actual journalism is under threat.
The current media obsession with BS clickbait polls is a major factor in my tuning out of their dreary news-free bulletins.
