Morality aside, effectiveness aside - this is just dumb politics. The voters it's designed to appeal to won't be remotely satisfied by it, whilst others will despair & many won't notice. So, sure, it's 'performative cruelty', but it's not even going to be applauded. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

European Movement UK's Co-President, Caroline Lucas, speaks the truth. It was an enormous act of self-sabotage to cut our ties with the largest trading bloc in the world right on our doorstep. It's time we fix that.

When Britain walked away from the EU, it did not simply rearrange its trade relationships. It severed itself from the world’s most powerful diplomatic bloc
at precisely the moment when the world needed that bloc to be stronger, not weaker. Caroline Lucas, Co-President, European Movement UK.

"The event in St Petersburg was addressed by Mark Collett, a longstanding far-right activist and founder of Patriotic Alternative, which attempted to exploit the summer of unrest outside asylum hotels in Britain." Just in case anyone wonders about the 'patriotism' and what 'alternative' it favours.

No kidding. Farage has got bitter inadequacy written all over him. Which is why it’s deeply irresponsible that our media avoids challenging him. He can’t cope with it. Anyone wanting the kind of power he’s grubbing for, needs to be able to withstand scrutiny. Not have a massive strop and huff off.

Next time someone tells you that train drivers "just push buttons" show them this from the BBC

The driver "managed to contact the control
centre at Network Rail and get the train
diverted onto the slow line", Calder says.

"That was absolutely crucial because this
train was scheduled to be travelling through
Huntingdon station on the tracks with no
platform at 125mph."

"It didn't stop in the middle of nowhere,
which would have been very difficult."

Calder thinks this was handled in the "safest
possible way" thanks to the "incredible
professionalism from the driver and the
police". Train drivers are trained on how to
take appropriate action, he adds,

It’s time for THE charger. Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging new mobile electronic devices in the EU. It means better-charging technology, reduced e-waste, and less fuss to find the chargers you need! #DigitalEU

A minimalist illustration showing a packaged charger box labeled "one Union one Charger." The box features an image of a blue charger with the European Union flag symbol and a USB-C cable. The scene is set within a holiday theme, with decorative Christmas trees, ornaments, and gift boxes surrounding the charger box. In the top right corner, there is a small EU flag symbol.
