Brilliant book launch by #NickClegg at Union Chapel last night in the style of fireside chat with @kamalahmednews.bsky.social. Nick's time at Facebook/Meta now chronicled for posterity as he advocates against a fractured internet. #ai #geopolitics #liberalism

Guess what -- I made it to the summit of Mt Fuji! It was a wet and misty start and I was really worried that the climb would be cancelled. But thankfully day 2 was dry and sunny. Thanks for putting your faith in me to deliver on this expedition in aid of @paddyforum.bsky.social gofund.me/bed0bd8e

Checked into Toyoko Inn favoured by Mt Fuji climbers. But weather forecast has not been great.

Chair of @paddyforum.bsky.social Lesley Batchelor spoke about the book of essays on "The 5 Decade Journey of EU-Asean Relations" authored by academics and professionals from both continents. It is so important to understand different perspectives in a multi-polar world
