Like other figures who've passed from history into myth, Thatcher has become an empty symbol for the Right, detached from her actual politics & beliefs.

The 21st century may have worse moments. But for Europeans it is hard to imagine a darker day than 12/02/2025. It looks like the midnight of our century – its nadir. Donald Trump just gave Vladimir Putin everything he wanted by agreeing to the partition of Ukraine. Nick Cohen on @Substack

It was fascinating making this episode with @jennykleeman.bsky.social, about avatar therapy - where psychosis patients create digital demons to converse with.
