"Joani Reid MP@JoaniReid20/02/25Jeremy Corbyn must decide.Does he back the UK standing with Ukraine against Russian aggression, or does he align with Trump's isolationist appeasement of Putin? There is no sitting on the fence."---------------------"@TomLevins1Joani Reid must decide.Does she back the UK charging her partner with treason if he is found guilty of spying for China?
