Problem with Bake Off is you can spot the ones who have the skills to go deep and who are the personality picks.

Just because you get a picture of something emerging from the water isn't going to convince me it exists.

Really enjoy the ads I'm getting on Instagram right now for "exciting careers where you can be yourself" where it takes a good seven or eight clicks (or amazing logo recognition) to establish it's Japan Tobacco International.

Burnham sort of hinted at it, and I've joked about it for a while - free movement as a method of reducing immigration.

It will be funny if the Greens and Reform fall back under the weight of their own incompetencies, combined with tactical herding when the election comes, and so three years of "oooh, fragmentation" becomes "And it turns out it was all a dream".

In Farringdon/Clerkenwell for something and every time I come here I'm puzzled by London having this sprawling furniture and furnishings district we never seem to acknowledge.

My basic view is that even post-29 (I) you remain a bad run of inflation away from another unhinged president (II) lots of stuff the US has retreated from will be low on the list to re-establish.

I know it's a long term thing and bonds are back, baby, but it would be very funny if auto-enrolment accidentally made a system where Muslims were routinely better off in old age.

Back to my regular cry of "You can't do demographic sweet spot politics outside of a demographic sweet spot", but also this is really going to clash with the "more manufacturing/trade jobs" thing because it's damn hard to be a brickie in your 50s, nevermind your 70s.

Russia has one enormous strategic advantage of which it is taking advantage. It can daily attack civilian targets--hospitals, universities, markets--knowing that while Ukraine can do the same, the Ukrainians are too humane to do so.

Had a scam call today. Was a bit bored so thought I'd use up some of their time. Anyway, they called saying they were from a housing association, dealing with some sort of property issue. Said "Ok" to the first guy and he passed me up to his manager. Who then asked what I'd complained about.

So this is an excuse to tell a story from a recent memorial for a lady I knew, respected and admired despite disagreeing on almost everything political. She was a Greenham Common woman and was going to cut the fence. But she wanted to do it right. So her and her friends did a midnight dummy run...

There are pretty obvious reasons why, still less than 48 hours after the incident, we might need to be cagey about what and when we actually knew about this plot and it is deeply unserious, social media poisoned stuff to litigate it all in the open right now.

I think the story of our era will be of a political class that were not only not up to the times they faced, but often wilfully blind to them.

Ultimately we created an entire culture around the idea that buying property was a one way bet, that policy would underwrite.

One of the things that links Farage and Trumpism is the complete disregard for the seriousness of government, and restraint Vs making everything content.

This is also true about many of the things going on with Trump and with Musk. Things you observe by being online just not reported or noticed, and they sound mad.

I sometimes of this vision of being stabbed to death as a mugger demands my pin number and instead of saying it I reply in a panic with stuff like "The treaty of Westphalia... Come on, that's an easy one!"
