OK, there is something very, very weird going on in the press right now. It certainly appears, from the outside, as if certain people are being very much protected in a way that was not afforded to certain other people! Let's start with the facts around Lola Salem... 🧵1/

My understanding is that the US doesn't need diesel. It's other countries' needs that are driving up global prices. US refiners make billions of excess profits charging US customers global prices. In fact we are a major exporter of diesel. So WTF? And what did he give Putin in return?

If you’ve been paying attention, it appears that Trump has had at least one stroke. Possibly a few. And the bulges and strange posture we have been seeing are because he’s wearing an exoskeleton.

Trying to get my head around restaurants asking for a VAT cut to 10%. If that happens I assume they’ll keep prices the same but keep 10% more revenue. Customers won’t see a difference and the Exchequer receives less tax income. Am I wrong?

NEW Why holding a placard is a terrorist act, while causing disruption in a balaclava is not The mess caused by ministers and the police not taking terrorism law seriously By me at @prospectmagazine.co.uk www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...

Recent events in England now reveal the practical difference between terrorists and protesters. It would seem that terrorists peacefully hold placards and get immediately arrested, while protesters wear black uniforms and balaclavas and disrupt infrastructure and do not get arrested.

How did we get into this mess? How have we placed ourselves in the position where terrorism legislation is used to detain and prosecute peaceful protesters, while those adopting the terror tactics of private armies seem to be free to do as they wish?

The reason is that for some time British politicians have not taken terrorism legislation seriously, and that ministers have got into the habit of misusing terror laws for easy targets.

As a driver and a regular cyclist I know as well as anyone the state of Edinburgh‘s roads. What gives me little hope for the future is how poor the recently (1-10 years) resurfaced ones are. In just a few years it’s common to see potholes appearing and the top layer being stripped away.
