Great letter in The Yorkshire Post from Peter Packham @leedseurope.bsky.social. 'The Brexit elite didn't "take back control" of our borders; they undermined our ability to manage them and incentivised criminal gangs behind the trafficking of desperate, vulnerable migrants.'

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

This is both ridiculous and chilling - Trump either deluded or just determined to impose his lie on the world. White House reporters should continue to ask about this until the administration admits the truth

The debate over whether to take Trump literally or seriously is over. He has now learnt how to be the tyrant he always wished to be.
That took a while. But, with the help he has received, he is there. His administration is engaged in a comprehensive assault on the American republic and the global order it created. Under attack domestically are the state, the rule of law, the role of the legislature, the role of the courts, the commitment to science and the independence of the universities. All these were the pillars on which US freedom and prosperity rested.
Now, he is destroying the liberal international order. Soon, I presume, Trump will be invading countries, as he proceeds to restore the age of empires.

President Zelenskyy: "Putin wants to conduct several offensives in the Zaporizhzhia direction, in the east, in the Kharkiv and Sumy directions to put maximum pressure on Ukraine. He will try to do all this in the coming months. And he doesn't care how many of his people die.

It’s not just that Trump admires Putin, he’s adopting his playbook. Trump’s comments today on Canada (“an arbitrary border”) and Greenland (“maybe more soldiers go there”) is EXACTLY how Putin talked about Ukraine. None of this is funny. It’s an explicit threat to sovereign nations.

Having failed to exclude Zelenskyy, they sought to bully him. Having failed to bully him, they sought to bribe him. Having failed to bribe him, they sought to discredit him. Maybe they will get round him one way or another, but you can see how frustrated they are at him holding on.

"Days before Donald Trump’s inauguration... an article appeared in the US magazine The Atlantic: ‘How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy in 53 Days’. Trump’s name doesn’t appear at all in the piece by Timothy Ryback, a historian and an authority on 1930s Germany. But joining the dots is not difficult."

Road to the next UK financial crash. Bank stress tests to be run every 2 yrs, not yearly. No regulation of shadow banks. Capital adequacy of banks, insurance companies reduced. No cap on bankers' bonuses. Regulators to promote growth and competitiveness of finance industry What could go wrong?
