Επιτύμβια πλάκα από το Τσουκούρκαβακ της Λυκαονίας, 3ος αι. μ.Χ. Το μνημείο ανήγειρε μια γυναίκα για τους δυο της θείους όπως λέει η επιγραφή πάνω από το ανάγλυφο. Κάτω από την παράσταση, λεζάντα: κῆτος κὲ Ἰωνᾶς.

France is just a symptom. The ECB is the disease. The ECB intervened aggressively to cap yields in Spain and Italy in 2022. If you protect high-debt countries, you set the wrong incentives for politicians. Fiscal policy will just get worse and worse... robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/the-debt-c...

France is in a debt crisis and there's zero suspense on how this ends. The ECB will intervene, just like it did for Italy and Spain in 2022. France is a symptom. The ECB is the disease because - over and over - it protects high-debt countries from markets... robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/the-debt-c...

I am reminded here on bluesky that some of the people I thought were level headed technocrats because of their brexit coverage are also very committed cheerleaders for one faction of the UK Labour party. When they hear the call they switch off their brains like Derek Zoolander when Relax comes on.

While i support this mechanism existing, it really offends me to hear it is being presented by Plevris, a man who would frankly be absolutely nobody had his father not spent years building a loyal fanbase of neonazis and antisemites. This is not a person the EU should allow to hold a migration brief

I'm no official but i share it. The UK is hollowed out. Remain could win without the body politic displaying any lasting commitment to the EU. And, as Farage's politics are on a decade long winning streak, it could even become another Hungary, just with more weight to throw around. Nope.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man MiFiD 2 isn’t funny” or “wow T+1 is fucked up” and there is no reward

when ppl, whether true believers or cynical grifters, use the far right for clout, some of their impact is irreversible. They help form a more cohesive far right audience, with deeper shared lore and language. that makes it easier for the next far right figure to emerge. Apologies don't reverse this

I will grant JRM that "open borders in exchange for total assimilation" is a policy that everyone seems to have given up on and is my own strong preference. I will give Suella the slightly obvious, try-hard point that immigrants like myself don't expect to be seen as English ("British" is different)
