It comes after Musk cited a poll in which he asked whether respondents 'want independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system' that has dominated US politics for two centuries.

Trump slams Putin's ‘bulls***' and trashes the tyrant's ‘meaningless' promises to end Ukraine war in savage attack
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A RAGING Donald Trump has slammed Vladimir Putin for talking "bull****" about the Ukraine war and making "meaningless" promises. The savage attack comes as Trump vowed to send more weapons to Ukraine as he appears to be growing increasingly frustrated with the Russian tyrant.

"He's very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless." Trump reiterated that he was "very unhappy" with Putin since their phone call last week made no progress on the Ukraine peace deal - something the US president has pushed for since returning to power. On Monday, Trump said he is going to send more weapons to Ukraine in a sweeping reversal of Washington's decision to halt some arms shipments earlier this month. Trump said: "We're going to send some more weapons. We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves. "They're getting hit very hard now. "We're going to have to send more weapons, defensive weapons, primarily." The White House confirmed on July 1 that shipments of certain air defence missiles and other precision bombs to Ukraine had been stopped because of concerns about dwindling weapons stockpiles. Asked about his interest in a bill proposed by the Senate for further sanctions on Russia, Trump said: "I'm looking at it very strongly."

Britain's largest fish and chip chain shuts NINE restaurants in major shake-up – is one going near you?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) BRITAIN'S largest fish and chip chain has sold off nine of its popular restaurants. The sale is part of a major shake-up for the brand, as it shifts its focus to another popular restaurant chain that it owns.

Credit: Crispin Rodwell - The Sun Dublin Deep Blue Restaurants is the largest operator of fish and chip restaurants in the UK and owns several well-known brands. It bought the popular chain Harry Ramsden's in 2019 and has decided to shift its focus to that rapidly growing brand. As part of the overhaul, the company's latest accounts have revealed that it has sold nine Deep Blue Restaurants. The eateries were sold between October 2024 and May 2025 and the money raised has been channeled into Harry Ramsden's restaurants. The funds were used to refurbish some of Harry Ramsden's restaurants, as well as funding several national and international marketing campaigns. Deep Blue Restaurants has been battling a drop in sales over the last year, with its turnover falling by 2.5 per cent in September 2024. Despite its successful efforts in securing £5.57 million in debt funding between October 2024 and February 2025, the company has pushed ahead with its strategic shakeup. Writing in his firm's accounts, James Fleming, the group's Chief Executive, said: 'As in prior years, global events, the cost of living crisis and food cost inflation continued to present headwinds to trading in the first three quarters of FY 2025. 'Despite this, performance has been robust. Looking at the sites on a like for like basis (to account for the disposal of some stores) the group is trading in line with the budget set at the start of the year. 'Continued success with the franchising and licensing of the Harry Ramsden's brand has further driven revenue and profitability across the group. Costa Coffee Shuts Whitstable Branch: What Shop Closures Mean for UK High Streets 'Management continue to focus on developing this element of the business, and there have been further new contract wins into 2025.' The news comes as TGI Fridays announced its return to the high street, after being saved from administration. The company's bosses have said that a 'full brand reset' is now underway, with 70 per cent of its grill items being reworked. A greater focus will be placed on its Americana aesthetic and theatre theme. TGI Fridays has been a mainstay on UK high streets since 1986, but has encountered falling sales over recent years. 35 of its restaurants were closed, making 1000 members of staff redundant. However, Breal Capital and Calveton UK has acquired its remaining 51 restaurants. Julie McEwan, chief executive of TGI Fridays UK, said: "This is an exciting moment for TGI Fridays - a full brand reset that reinforces everything people have always loved about us. "TGI Fridays has a rich heritage of bold flavour, high-energy hospitality and unforgettable celebrations - and we've gone back to those roots to bring that magic into a new era. "Over the past eight months, we've restructured the business, invested in our incredible team, and rebuilt our offer around quality, value and experience." Deep Blue Restaurants have been approached for comment by The Sun.
