A quite extraordinary day in the Netherlands: King Willem-Alexander commissioned 60 historians to investigate the royal family’s historic involvement in slavery. This resulted in five books that were published today. First European monarchy to seek transparency.

Trump's "trapped in a fantasy world" where "he is doing a great job, he's fantastic, the economy's great," says John Harwood. "His psychological disfigurement will not allow him to feel the voters' pain."

Returning to the EU-China story, one part that we particularly don't like to discuss is that many of their most successful companies have clearly been entrepreneur led and clearly more dynamic than our bureaucratic versions. That is though a temporary advantage.

These are of course reasons to support genuine markets and actions against corporate concentration. One massive political weakness across countries is considering the private sector as a single entity represented by the largest firms, thus discriminating against challengers.

It never stops being important that, no matter what the subject, politicians like Farage, Trump & Rubio are entirely untethered from the most basic requirements of honest discourse. They might turn out to be telling the truth sometimes but only ever in the spirit of stopped clocks.

Reminder again that the President of the United States has no idea what a trade deficit is — a concept taught in high school econ. He thinks that if the US buys $500 of goods and services from Canada, and Canada buys $400 of goods and services from the US, we have “lost” $100.

It would be comical if a load of this came from Arab States like the Saudis that Trump has decline to assist when it came to the Houthis‘ advance. It would be another example of “being suckered by Trump by being daft enough to believe you could trust him”.
