A picture of post-Brexit Britain. New post on my Brexit & Brexitism Blog on a fortnight of ugly political scenes, why a government-led counter-narrative on asylum is needed, and why these domestic political events are a national security issue: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-pi...

Excellent as ever. Reminded me of Orwell on England "A family with the wrong members in control – that, perhaps, is as near as one can come to describing England in a phrase."

Yesterday two European institutions published this extremely good paper on future UK-EU ties. It deserves proper attention coming from there so to speak and being based on serious engagement with experts on both sides. Some key points follow... www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de/en/publicati...

#Posh were much the better team and fully deserved their victory. Congratulations to them 🎉. We will learn from the that and in the long run it will help our development. Let’s finish the season with the highest EFL points total. #kro #bcfc

This is an excellent report/ analysis. FWIW I think Starmer is handling this incredibly difficult situation about as well as possible, even if it's not pretty, and distasteful for those who demand absolute moral purity in politics.

Shameful decision from Sweden which has no excuse for exterminating wolves like this. Imagine India decided to halve its tiger population, or Kenya its lions? There'd be an outcry. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Govt departments, police forces, universities and others should simply ensure they have a presence on multiple platforms. BlueSky, for example, has a growing UK audience They can then use the platforms that give positive engagement & wind down if/where engagement falls or toxicity dominates

Public Libraries can be wonderful places where children and adults can find books that they can see themselves reflected in, no matter who they are, and books that can introduce them to entire other lived experiences. Both are so valuable!
