Write great stories, cast fantastic actors, make a show that has real quality then cancel it even after it gets good viewing. Disney execs showing they just aren’t good at their jobs. This summer’s movies and TV show you do these things you get the big bucks.

Just another in a long line of reversals, climb downs, unforced errors from the Labour Govt. This one could gift Reform a lot of council seats. Starmer looks like he can’t make even the simplest of political moves without it blowing up in his face. He’s the Wile-e coyote of British politics.

Watching BBC you’d think Starmer was in the Epstein files. A total Westminster inside baseball story. You can see Chris Mason salivating as he thinks he’s going to get a scalp. It’s all noise, Starmer is most definitely NOT the leader for the moment but jeebus it’s not for the media to usurp him.

If Trump wants to invade Greenland, there is realistically little that NATO could do without direct confrontation. He could ‘take’ it pretty quickly. However that really is a ‘doomsday’ scenario, but we are in a current situation where it isn’t a zero percent possibility of happening.

Time for the UK and EU to do some dumb performative sh*t such as withdrawing the King’s visit to the US & boycotting the World Cup. It’s only stuff like this that will get Trump to pay any attention, he doesn’t care about ‘diplomacy’ stop acting like this is a time for normal statecraft.
