Angus Taylor’s redeeming feature
The most redeeming of Angus Taylor’s features is that he is unlikely ever to become prime minister. He is a management consultant all the way down, insufficiently serious about the problems in front of him and always ready with the wrong answer. He has the boneless charisma of a soccerball ham.

He's hard core on belling the genocide cat. He supports Palestinian absolute right to violently resist. Likens Oct 7 to historical US slave uprisings. Thinks it's reasonable for victim countries of Israel to not distinguish between Zionists and Jews... As a Jew, these alone make him almost unique.

The most likely outcome, if no one comes to the aid of SA, and I hope this will be the case, is that SA will cut a deal with Iran and Yemen. Though if SA fully collapsed; fine also.

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia
• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.
