Donald Trump is amazing. My grocery cart used to hold $100 worth of food, and now it holds $250 worth of food. I don't know how he does it, but the man is a genius.

"An investigation uncovered more than 130 official suppliers in the UK willing to sell cloned number plates" This is such a clear example of where the UK is good at creating laws, and often terrible at enforcing them. Laws are pointless if they're not implemented and *seen* to be implemented.

Usual hand-wringing about returning to division and inaction, not getting the same opt-outs etc… but arguments to rejoin trump those what-ifs. Going it alone in a world dominated by Putin, Trump and China is strategically idiotic and economically ruinous. Shaking your head at that is red-flag-dim.

The insurance industry warning about mounting climate risks is also on LinkedIn. The likes of MunichRE have been engaged on climate risk for years but this is far wider disquiet. Insurance simply can't cope with systemic, co-variant, and repeated shocks. Those are disastrous, compounding, cascades.

The 'Carbon Impacts Tracer' is built on a robust metric. For every 1,000 billion tonnes of CO₂ emitted, global temperatures increase by approximately 0.45 °C. All subsequent calculations the tool uses are based on this physical fact. The likes of the orange and Faux-Rage can't change physics.

Sigh. It's been a wasted five years. Early in the pandemic lockdown there seemed to be some optimism for changing the pathway. Since then, there's the returned orange, a resurgence of online climate trolls, and the last gasps of the fossil fuel lobby splashing cash and disinformation all over.

ECHR withdrawal 'gift to Putin'
By Jonathan Rayner | 22 March 2012

Britain’s withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights in favour of a British bill of rights would be Vladimir Putin's
'best present ever', an East European delegate at a Council of Europe event for lawyers told the Gazette last weekend.

The source, who asked not be named, said that Putin, just re-elected as president of Russia, has always said that the Strasbourg court's policing of human rights was ‘meaningless'.
Another unnamed source, a former north European government lawyer, described the UK government's attitude to the Strasbourg court as 'Britain shooting itself in the foot. If the British don't engage with Europe, they'll lose influence and shouldn't be surprised if
Germany and France fill the vacuum?

Party faces fresh crisis as three councillors quit after ITV undercover filming exposed violence, misogyny and racist views Reform UK has been rocked by a fresh crisis after councillors and election candidates for the party were caught on film making graphic threats of extreme violence and expressing racist and misogynistic views. Three councillors have already stood down from the party, which said it was conducting an investigation over the first revelations from an ITV undercover investigation that aired on Wednesday.
