I mean this is just the dumbest possible moment to come up with this line, when he has visibly stood up to US aggression and kept us out a war she would have weekly joined.

The school photographer at my son's school takes the year group photo by taking individual photos and editing them together. It looks really bad & must be 50x the work of just taking the photo properly.

My psychology degree is 25 years old, so maybe I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure bipolar doesn't make you antisemitic or go to the lengths of writing songs & selling Nazi merch. I can't believe there was no pushback that West had to overcome on either of those things.

Starmer (rightly in some cases) gets a lot of shit but fuck, imagine Badenoch or Farage in charge at this particular moment.
Badenoch has another new position on Trump and Iran.

I really hope the SRA is finally going to put a stop to solicitors who behave as badly as this guy.
"It was horrid, absolutely horrid. We felt a lot of pressure, which I think is his tactic."

London lawyer Andrew Milne bought a strip of land. Then the threatening letters began. Featuring bee keepers, bikers and legal threats, it's a strange and disturbing tale...

Deliberately attacking civilian infrastructure without apparent military value is a war crime.

Shouldn't be surprising since America elected a war crimes advocate, who in his first term pardoned convicted war criminals, and in his second made the public champion of those war criminals SecDef.
🎥 Donald Trump posts a video that appears to show the aftermath of a U.S. attack on civilian infrastructure in Iran.

The Artemis moonshot is a great American achievement.

By the way, one crew member is Canadian. The service module, which keeps the astronauts alive, is built in Bremen. The communications depend on ground stations in the US, Spain and Australia.

Dear America- don't give up your friends too easily

Another e.g. of a relatively small policy but one which helps address an every day irk, and a costly one too. Over past year Government has seemed to get much better at doing more of these tackling 'every day frustrations' policies and small cost of living fixes. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Someone in the FT comments last week tried to justify Trump's wild swings by likening them to individual poker hands. I'm not a poker player but if Trump is trying to play a game of poker then his approach feels like he's putting all his cards face up and shouting BINGO.

Okay I know we are all sick of hearing about the Burkes but you have to admit going on the run, realising nobody cares, then turning up to a prison to get arrested on purpose, all so you can get some more attention, is a very funny bit
