Creative tension! Or something arty like that… : )

I’m actually amazed that the scale of abduction has not been more widely publicised. Especially in the US. Of all the horrors you’ve expect this one to break through in some way.

Don’t always like them, but I do enjoy what you post on my feed and if there’s something that really grabs my interest I usually do some digging to learn more.

One of the most interesting debates in current international security is the degree to which we’re reliant on undersea cables and the degree to which these aren’t at all protected! I spoke to @katjabego.bsky.social about her excellent new book on the subject. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/b...

Angle of attack is different to the white noise too. Maybe less chance of detection if AD is trending in the white noise direction?

Saturation of white noise everywhere to overwhelm AD and disguise the saturation of the man target?

It’s like putting a chimp in charge of a car on the highway and saying it went rogue as it hit 100mph and ended up embedded in the side of someone’s house. Who could possibly expected that to happen!?

Every day I see your updates and sadly the numbers become just another piece of information in my feed. But today I stopped and just wondered how a man can wake up after many years and think, ‘yup, let’s do the same again today, let’s keep sending my people to their deaths.’ It’s insane.

RefUK, RW media, & Eurofash are plainly trying to whip up a panic about this. Any serious report must begin by explaining that Ceuta is in Africa - not mainland Spain - and 48k+ of the 50k crossers were already returned. It is frightening how many still don't know this. Please share on all socials.

Map showing the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla in North Africa.

Screengrab from Politico piece that explains, citing Reuters, that 48,300 of the 50,000 recent crossings have already been expelled or voluntarily returned to Morocco.

BBC report on Friday, still echoing the RW disinformation - or at the very least not challengning it sufficiently.

What triggered the mass migrant crossings into Ceuta?

Spain's prime minister has blamed trafficking gangs after about 60,000 migrants crossed into the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta from Morocco. At least 57 people died during the surge, according to local media."

Daily Mail and Daily Express from this weekend, with front page headlines "Ministers MUST stop the Spanish border invaders reaching UK" and "SPANISH BORDER CRISIS IS 'WAKE-UP CALL' FOR UK", respectively.

I always remember a summer evening (around 20 years ago), sat on the waterfront watching two young lads floating by on a door calling everyone posho w*nkers. With appropriate hand gestures. Was very funny. 🤣

I think it's good to get people out of the bubble and see how the country works (or doesn't) outside of London. More importantly it sends a signal of listening/understanding, even it it may just end up being performative (I hope not).

Only so far as ripping off the show I think. In it the protagonist speaks to her late sister’s VM in the car, late at night in the garage. It’s actually a good show and worth a watch.

A Baltic-North Sea grouping is a fascinating idea and has a good logic to it. Particularly around defence and streamlining of decision making.

My new book about Jeffrey Epstein is a Q&A. It's like if you sat next to me at a cocktail party, and his name came up, and you kept asking me questions. I find the material is easier to absorb that way. www.amazon.com/Another-Wond...

A lot of people don't care about art and just see it as a means to get rich and/or famous, but they don't seem to understand that we're not all like that. Some of us actually do like art.

Thanks for that link, he’s great! Always loved Phase IV, although it did freaked me out seeing it on TV as a kid in the 70s. And never knew before that 4 mins had been chopped off the ending.
