I wish Prime Ministers would sometimes say (eg about goings-on at festivals) “I don’t know, I’m too busy”

Train to Haverfordwest gives access to Broad Haven. Great little resort for kids. Tenby is also an option.

If CNN is "fake news", why would they fire a journalist for doing "fake news"? 🤔

Gentle reminder that occasionally it’s beneficial to put down your phone, go outside, and judge and criticize people in person.

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

They should, especially for rural areas. In West Northamptonshire, sixth form students have to pay >£600 per year to ride the same bus that was free until they completed year 11.

I can't remember who said it on here, but one reason causing danger on a bike isn't the same as causing danger in a car is that the bike rider has already taken steps to mitigate any harm by using a 10-kg vehicle instead of a 2000-kg vehicle

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...
A light blue diagram depicting the sea, with the water's surface at the top, and just below it is an outline of the Mary Rose, with the depth (12m, 40ft or 6.7 fathoms). There is a line showing the seabed, which takes a rapid dive into the vertical...

Quite wonderful find by this FT team. A Chinese small business that makes MAGA merch on.ft.com/4cAH6tE
While many Chinese businesses are reeling from the trade war, Qi, the Maga merchandise maker, brushed off any suggestion his might suffer.
Trump supporters, he said, were willing to pay any price for items bearing the image of their beloved president - and US suppliers were making such a huge profit on them that they could afford to partially absorb the tariff impact.
A Trump baseball cap, for instance, cost only Rmb7.50 ($1) to produce. Tariffs might raise that cost to Rmbo, but the caps were being sold for $50 in the US.
"American sellers could even use the tariffs as an excuse to raise the price to $60 - yet the extra cost will still be borne by the US consumers,
" said Qi.

Lots of differences but the similarity with Truss is that a lot of the market response is less about the specific event and more the realisation that these people really are total clowns and there's no clever plan behind the public statements of blathering ignorance.

an idle thought I've had at the back of my head for a while is that a lot of white collar/middle class jobs used to be legitimately fun and/or intellectually stimulating and/or ludicrously well paid and now they're few or none of those things, and we don't talk about that at all

They also imposed tariffs on US Military Base, Diego Garcia. It looks like they used AI to calculate tariffs based on trade deficits for all territories territories.
