Which the PM has made clear with regards to Greenland. It’s the wider geopolitics that is the challenge and specifically as it relates to Ukraine. It’s all very well bandying emotive words like coward.
It’s all too easy for commentators to pontificate on the PM’s position but this is an extremely challenging and delicate position that requires careful diplomacy. Watching yesterday’s press conference with European leaders, I think the PM has struck the right balance and tone.

Couldn’t agree more! Its not much better than a Mills & Boon
Deeply proud to be backed by Alan Johnson, a giant of the Labour movement.

I’m a campaigner - and I’ll be a campaigning Deputy Leader.
This last week I’ve visited every region & nation in Britain - telling Labour’s story.
We need to unite, bring change, and defeat Reform to win again.
Almost every newspaper and broadcaster in Britain is now waging a racist 24/7 campaign of hatred against migrants on behalf of the ultra rich. In response to this, one small thing you can do is donate to the NGOs supporting refugees.
Sure Start was a godsend for me. This is brilliant news.
Commentators: 'Labour's wasted its first year in office'.
Ed Miliband:
I wouldn't be Chancellor for all the money in the world. Incredibly tough job. Impossible ask. Especially over the last decade.

The buildings of the European Commission and the European Council are illuminated in blue and yellow, the colours of the Ukrainian flag. Between them, the street, an EU flag and a Ukrainian flag are visible. It is otherwise dark.
The blue and yellow of Ukraine.
The colours of resistance against imperialism.
On the eve of this grim anniversary, they adorn our building as a symbol of our unflinching support for the Ukrainian people.
Our neighbours, partners, and future EU members.
“In the past six months Russia has been humiliated in Syria, failed to dislodge three Ukrainian brigades from the Kursk region, and taken more than 200,000 casualties in advancing roughly the distance from central London to Heathrow airport.”
Some good news. Labour is delivering for the NHS.
Green and purple background. “You are loved and wanted in London”
Blue and pink background. “I always feel loved in London-it’s my home, my workplace and my community. The hustle and bustle is my comfort blanket” - Krista “You are loved and wanted in London”
“I came to London alone and here I met my chosen family” - Eduardo “You are loved and wanted in London”
London’s diversity shines in every corner. Celebrating events with neighbours of all faiths shows how cultures blend seamlessly here. “You are loved and wanted in London”
Londoners come from every walk of life, from every religious, ethnic and social background and from all over the world to make up this fantastic city.
In these uncertain and unsettling times, I want Londoners to know that they are loved and wanted in London.
'We are the nation that takes great pride in the story of Paddington… a stow away from Peru.'
