So will Trump / Hegseth put it on a pay channel? Make a little extra dosh? How will children be guarded from such appalling images? Or any decent, empathic person for that matter. This is totally sick and disgusting and must be stopped. The world will remember this America. A once great nation.

“Suffice it to say, that what happened, what almost happened, what could have happened, in the UK over the weekend, is a very serious situation.” Marco Rubio So that’s perfectly clear then …

I have nothing against the American football team and despite being British I know nothing (or indeed care anything about) football. But I was very pleased with the result of the game between America and Belgium. It feels like the universe was quietly reset. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

The president thinks otherwise (if he’s still capable of thinking) - it’s all part of a plan by the loony left ‘Dumbocrats’ to vandalise his beloved pool. Turning to ‘AI’ I wondered if Goggle’s Gemini thought pouring hydrogen peroxide into the pool might have a deleterious effect on the paint …
Yes. 

Pouring hydrogen peroxide into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool can degrade the chemical bond of the pool's coating, causing the paint to delaminate and peel. The chemical was initially poured into the basin to act as an eco-friendly algaecide and oxidize organic matter. However, as noted by chemical experts, hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizing and bleaching agent that can attack or strip certain polymer-based coatings and paints if the concentration is high enough or applied repeatedly over porous, spray-coated surfaces.

This dynamic was visibly demonstrated in June 2026. Shortly after workers dumped 12% hydrogen peroxide into the 6.75-
million-gallon pool to combat persistent, fast-growing algae, the newly applied "American flag blue" polyurea coating began delaminating and peeling off the bottom of the basin in large sheets.

You really cannot make this shit up!

Mr Raskin is also one of my favourite US politicians (and I seem to like more, and know more, US politicians than UK ones!) And he is completely right on Farage. We keep making mistakes and I fear we are hurtling towards the existential nightmare that is today’s America.

Not at the moment and it’ll never achieve human like consciousness for the obvious reason it isn’t human. But will we construct a future AI that is treated as conscious and we protect its ‘welfare’? Who knows, but Anthropic are considering AI welfare and have psychologists interview Claude.

I’m glad they’re keeping up the 50+ year tradition of not bothering to learn their lines and just reading (very obviously) off cue cards. It makes it so much more realistic as they talk to each other while looking in a different direction … (Although Tina Fey’s monologue was actually funny.)

The UK must stand firm. Trump criticises, insults, threatens and imposes illegal tariffs on America’s allies. He pushes an America First policy. Now at the first sign of trouble, begs and threatens the world for help. The UK must not enter this illegal and pointless war.

Absolutely sickening. What they don’t say is what Marco Rubio confirmed. Trump only committed American forces to ‘war’ because Israel had started an attack and America would suffer more losses if it didn’t act. The UK is right to offer defensive capabilities but not to enter into an illegal war.

An excellent point and thank goodness for Emily (and the BBC of old) for that extraordinary interview. Not a huge complaint as such, but why do you have to show the stupid captioning? It’s so distracting, I end up putting my hand over the lower part of the screen. We’re not all 20 year olds.

We still have good journalism in the UK. This was Channel 4. The BBC is under threat from a $10 billion lawsuit by Trump and recently their coverage seems, shall we say, very ‘CBS like.’ A report on Trump overturning the Obama era climate stuff was very ‘both sides-ism’ - a very concerning trend
