Not that Jim O’Neill but I’m interested in Economics, though that’s not what the Andrew pays me for.

Tusk: “Anyone who tries to draw a false equivalence, anyone who suggests that Ukraine is responsible for the war, is giving an extraordinarily valuable gift to the aggressor, Putin.”

At this point, there is no ambiguity about what just happened: Trump has stabbed the Ukrainian nation in the back in exchange for a shipment of diesel that would be a roughly 17 hour supply for the US market. It shows how easily Trump is manipulated by Putin, Xi and other dangerous dictators.

What gets me is British ness is arguably as much an ethnicity for all who identify with the pre Anglo Saxon population of this island. What is now Welsh is the older language of most of this island.

Denmark newsgroup has background music on waiting for Trump that had the lyrics "send in the clowns" The camera then finds Marco Rubio and zooms in with song going "clowns already here" P.S new agreement on Greenland is a massive Danish negotiation victory

It is astonishing that he's not asked every day why he had a budget that was designed to do nothing more than make it as hard as possible for an incoming Labour Government What about what is best for the country?

The single most effective argument against Mosley’s BUF in the 30s, the one that really broke through with the masses, was that all the creepy fash stuff (esp. the uniforms) was *un-British*. That is the angle to keep pounding away at - the foreign donations, the obvious mimicry of the 🇺🇸 alt-right.

Indian also seem to have a strange hold over the right’s imagination since the late nineteenth century; fear there is a connection with Blavatskyism, caste system fetishisation and pseudo Darwinism

This didn't just happen because of the tech bros and the media, but because across the political spectrum there was an assumption that Europe was impregnable, and didn't really have to make choices whether tax and spend, investment, healthcare, you name it. But we do.

It's the Comedian a masked vigilante. The gif come from the Watchman film which was based on Alan Moore's seminal Watchman Graphic novel of the 80s. Worth a root out and read. All good public libraries should hold it.

Absolutely this is organised groups wearing a uniform; it's the little green men version of the BUF marching to Cable street, and there are laws now in place to stop that.

I think this is one of the keys to our time. National populists are always corrupt; I had a few years ago the idea of doing one of those broad books about Our Times and calling it ‘The Age of Fraud’ or something like that.

A former BBC exec tells me: ‘As ever the BBC is salami-slicing..with no regard for the future. Apprentices cost so so so little. Their salaries are tiny. As always the BBC is looking to make savings in the “easy” places as it’s so reluctant to ruffle important feathers.’
