Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Kinda crazy that Republicans were prepared to accept Trump’s corruption as a price worth paying for being able to ram through their policies. But that’s where we’re at. The US is now a kleptocracy and its people powerless to stop it. 000
Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 01/07/2026If nothing else Trump’s profiteering shines a light on the corruption at the heart of crypto. Governments and financial regulators take note. 010

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Hell, if the Royals don’t want to live in Buckingham Palace let’s turn it into a permanent museum/gallery of British Royal History.

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 22/06/2026If England make the Final, and of course it’s a big if, every major FA football ground in the country should show the game on huge screens and let everyone watch for free. 010
Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 22/06/2026When Trump got in a second time, the rest of the world scratched its head and wondered how the hell it could happen. I imagine they’re doing much the same regarding Starmer. But it’s the same reason. Incredibly wealthy people with vested interests. 000
Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Starmer brought down by a mixture of the Far Left Magic Grandpa Corbynites of his party, the Right Wing Media, and the fear/rise of Reform. Burnham with his further left of centre position will get battered by the Establishment. Ugly times ahead. 000

Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 21/06/2026The juvenile frisson that comes with a change of leader could well be diminished if Starmer does insist on an orderly handover waiting until September. Three months of the Right Wing Media bashing Burnham could result in a very different mood and landscape. 000
Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 21/06/2026I think the word ‘schvitzing’ is going to get a lot of action over the next few days. 000
Simon Fellowes @simonfspeak.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Starmer clearly playing for time. If Farage does step down then the threat of Reform is gone. The Tories are a non event, and the Green/Lib Dem coalition eminently handleable. 021
