Amid all the focus on French bond yields, don't lose sight of the US which has worse debt dynamics and more political dysfunction. Europeans should brace for the Trump administration to use financial repression and coercion to keep Treasury yields down. My latest nixons.substack.com/p/europe-reu...

Cycling is a fantastic way to get around London, especially now that we've grown our Cycleways network five-fold. To celebrate Car Free Day, TfL is making it even cheaper and easier for more Londoners to explore our city by bike with this new Santander Cycles offer. bit.ly/4y9byF5
Graphic comparing London’s cycle network in 2016 and 2026. Two maps show the city with cycle routes highlighted in green: the 2016 map has relatively few routes, while the 2026 map shows a much denser network. Text reads, “London’s cycle network is now five times larger than in 2016.”

In May of 1940 there was a mass panic in Britain - stirred up by the tabloid press - about 'fighting aged men' who had come to Britain as 'refugees' posing a threat to the women and children of this country - and essentially forming a 'fifth column' that could, at any moment rise up against everyone

Reform to make long-term jobless clean streets for 20 hrs a week or no benefits. Training, education? Age 60/65, can't work, can't retire, can't see doctor, no local jobs; just clean streets. What future for old, sick, disabled and victims of redundancies? Will it all be policed at gunpoint?
