Julie Reinger said goodbye to the BBC today after 26 years. She had a very special rapport with the viewers ..and had lots of laughs together. Go well Jules…

“Football fans do not behave like rational customers. Millions of people pay a significant portion of their increasingly stretched incomes to watch a football team mostly not win, for ever.” Genius writing from @jonathanliew.bsky.social

Why is Donald Trump crashing the US economy? Because he’s high on his own supply of fake news | Jonathan Freedland
Addicted to Fox News and outlets even more extreme, the president finds justification for actions disastrous to Americans and the world, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

Impossible to imagine what John Hunt has been through. His victim statement is extraordinary and if you haven’t read it - please do. It just so happens he’s one of the best commentators of this or any era…

On occasion, impartiality serves the BBC very badly indeed. Both Chris Mason and Laura Kuensberg asking Zelensky if he’d care to apologise for events in the White House. Read the room …

For weeks, ministers and other British politicians have been trying to convince the rest of us and perhaps themselves that Trump is more normal than he is, that he cares about Ukraine and Europe more than he does and that is less inclined towards Putin than he is...

Just when you think Trump, Vance etc can’t get any more awful..they do. But I’m sorry to say - it will get worse. The world needs to stop treating Trump like a normal person. He isn’t. He’s a narcissist- that’s the easy bit. No, the question is more how disturbed is he? My guess is very….

Slowly people around the world are waking up to what Trump is- insane. Presumably this is the kind of thing going on inside his head?

If you weren’t depressed enough already - read this. It’s brilliant and very clear. Anyone still believe in our ‘special relationship’ with the US?

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Tragic. Lives lost, lives ruined and yet for many in the US and elsewhere, climate change remains someone else’s problem. One day the human race will wake up -and it will be too late. That day is closer than you think.

Hello to all my new followers on Blue Sky. I quite like it here. Bit like old Twitter. Thanks for the follow! Here’s an old photo of me when I was on the telly. Look East in 1987. I was 25. Now 62 - I don’t look like this anymore. Still got my hair ..just. But apart from that ..it’s all going south.
