It makes sense to build up the Russian interference in Brexit. Leverage anti-Russia sentiment to win more Brexiteers over.

It's about US mid terms. However, it's not going to lower price of diesel significantly, won't help the Republicans.

So long as Iran and Russia have good relations western democracies will always side against Iran, even if the western democracies are working through their own relationship issues.

Dems need to focus on policy communication but I fear they'll waste the next two years trying with impeachment.

Agree with Lewis. Trump doesn't care, not about the Republicans nor about the Senate, he'll just use the final two years to make another billion. He's had the revenge he said he wanted.

Because Eritrea, Sudan, Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan and Pakistan are such massive exporters to the UK, eh Nigel?

The EU would probably not counter, instead let UK voters feel the pain of self inflicted import tax and higher air fares (self inflicted supply shock). 😄

Haven't heard about that, but there was a really good discussion by biologists on one of the BBC Radio science programmes a while back about how cellular generation pretty much makes 120 the max.

It helps that Norway has a sovereign wealth fund and a relatively small population, and is natural resource rich.

Russia is simply a useful means to and end, that being to weaken major economies (Eurozone and China). The America First long term strategy.

Both Labour and Conservatives had economic headlines from conference. The Green's conference put a non economic policy in their limelight. #bbcBH

Growth is going to need external investment everywhere. There's always the risk that some organization anywhere in the UK might ignore their own code of conduct, even if the source of financing isn't from somewhere like Qatar. How did audit not pick up what was happening at Man city.

Taxation is used really mainly to control inflation. Government issues debt finance new spending (which results in money creation/removal activities).

It's going to require technical and societal changes, I'd rather some scientists were in the labs working solutions that will at least mitigate some of the effect. Getting the develop world consumers to change behavior is a much bigger challenge that will take much longer.

If it was a air suicide and objective was to crash over the desert somewhere to minimize urban impact, maybe... but it's an odd sort of guilt to feel with plane full of passengers.

"We have to be careful because if we put too much pressure on Israel... blah blah blah" - caller And that right there is the problem. Not doing the difficult thing because Israel might bark back. #bbcAQ

This is what has been puzzling me. Why not wait until it's pratically too late to prevent it.

Not a bad idea. The leadership should say to the party, this motion is contentious so we would like to put it to a referendum and ask membership if it should be kept or rejected, and explain to the membership the pros and cons. Or is such a democractic option not within their constitution. #bbcAQ

I've always suspect that Polanski is more about socialism than environmentalism. I think he hijacked the party.

Even so, my point is this is a fringe group. It's not the majority view. And that majority will, if put to the test, choose to eject the fringe element that might be harming the party.

Just over 1,000 supported the motion, the other 220,000 were not as motivated. I suspect when it's put to the membership that the party can be damaged by fringe policy groups, the larger group will agree with leadership to do something about (overturn it or change constitution).

I haven't seen anything data wise that suggests this to be the case. I think the majority of Green growth will have been moderate left, not the hard or extreme left.

"He [Polanski] has done amazing things for the party..." That what you say about a colleague you hope will be moving on relatively soon. Majority of Green membership will likely vote him out in 2027 if he allows 'entryism' to grow. #bbcAQ

Anthropic is testing its agents against real world live production services on the internet. What right does Anthropic have to do that. And why is the media world not more up in arms about that. #bbcAQ

'AI' is already democratized, Caroline Lucas. And that may be part of the problem. It might be better to license the use and application of the technology. #bbcAQ

Does Alex Forsyth imagine AI servers will grow limbs and escape data centers? Let's say an AI did manage to shutdown every power station, that is not extinction for humans. And if anyone believe nuclear launch codes will be handed to AI, they are idiots. #bbcAQ

It's possible she's more politically savvy than Polanski (having led the party previously and for longer).

i) The Constitution may be revised by a two thirds majority vote, at an Annual Conference or an Extraordinary Party Conference called by an Annual Conference in a resolution explicitly delegating this power. If the Zionism motion is seen as damaging to party, shouldn't be too hard for leadership.

If they put things to a party wide referendum to make constitutional changes then I think it won't be so challenging.
