Pitch for a new spy movie: a CIA agent spends years getting close to a terrorist suspect then just before he gets the crucial piece of evidence he’s fired and replaced with a teenager who doesn’t speak any foreign languages but does have a lot of followers on X. Everybody dies.

cartoon of the day
A satirical cartoon of a passenger on a plane saying the pilot has lost touch with regular passengers before adding: “who thinks I should fly the plane?” Everyone puts their hands up.

What to expect.
Never underestimate the vengeful nihilism at the heart of this movement. The glitter-eyed fanatics behind Project 2025 and other such programmes will smash whatever is most precious to you, partly at the behest of commercial interests – but also to enjoy watching the pain it inflicts. They will crush beauty, joy, community and hope precisely because other people value them.

Declining to back Braverman’s words but keeping her in office is Sunak hoping to secure the bigot vote while pretending he isn’t one. Sorry no. If Braverman is your Home Secretary, you endorse her. Her hate speech is your hate speech. And you are responsible for the harm she does.

And there we are - yet again. Brexit will keep doing damage until we can get free of its inherently restrictive nature— ie get back into Single Market at least, but preferably full membership of the EU.
