Satire campaign ruffles politicians' feathers ahead of UK vote

Led by Donkey's use of humour to expose politicians' lies through viral visuals has found a massive audience in a British public increasingly distrustful of the political establishment

David Lammy: Britain's next foreign secretary?

Is Lammy's support for the ICC arrest warrant for Netanyahu and a Palestinian state making Starmer—a staunch backer of Israel—uncomfortable?

Is Zelensky softening his stance on peace talks?

Drowning in debt: Investors dump France ahead of elections

Nigel Farage: Britain's 'most divisive politician' is back

How will Europe's shift to the right affect its foreign and domestic policies?
