Something very depressing about hearing ‘Drumcree’ at the top of morning news Reminds me of my teenage years when it seemed to be a constant. Now feels like unionism banging the drum - geddit? - while the whole world has changed around them

Re my assessment of late 2027 as one scenario it appears some French intelligence officials agree. I think that's also when any Chinese attack on Taiwan starts coming into the picture.

The Ukrainian military is one of the most innovative fighting forces on earth, and its people are even more remarkable. That's exactly why our commitment to them matters more than ever. I review my full trip at the link below in the comments, give it a listen and a read!

I'm glad Heath is doing this (and persisting in doing so). But as with Fraser Nelson I wish he'd take some responsibility for creating a world in which most of his readers in the comments are backing Lowe.

When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.

The Times: Net zero risks blackouts. Below a photo of French wildfires.

It's so curious how the Green Agenda stalled just as the consequences of climate change surely can no longer be denied. It feels like we are heading for catastrophe. So few seem to care.

No science fiction could have prepared us for just how stupid the end of the world can be. "The environment was on the brink of collapse, and so, rather than deal with that, we burned what fuel we had left getting computers to scam each other for money."

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Some amazing quotes in this article about how Ford replaced hundreds of engineers with AI, which broke a bunch of shit causing billions in damage and forcing them to rehire those people. www.the-independent.com/tech/ford-ai...

“Artificial intelligence is a fantastic tool, but it’s only as good as the information you use to train it,” said Charles Poon, Ford’s vice president of vehicle hardware engineering.

“Mistakenly, we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence and ingesting the design requirements that we had, that that would produce a high-quality product.”

The recent developments regarding Belarus are noteworthy. First, Lukashenko publicly apologized to Ukraine and President Zelenskyy for Belarus‘ role in Russia’s war of aggression. Then he turns off the repeaters which Russia has been using for drone attacks in Ukraine‘s north.
