Yep! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Not all US Republicans are spineless! www.reuters.com/world/us/rep...

Why is Ofcom even having these meetings? The Online Safety Act or the treatment of anti-abortion protesters who break the law is none of their effing business. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/a...

What an original idea to honour the author of “imagine no possessions” with a set of gold and silver coins… www.royalmint.com/shop/limited...

Overheard: “Without the help from France the US would be speaking English now…”

@listigeplaylists.bsky.social Here’s one more from Alessa Lamborghini. One of her best in my opinion. open.spotify.com/track/016Owy...

Alessa’s song The Nightingale Floor (one of her best in my view) is now featured on this great Spotify playlist. Try it out!

@listigeplaylists.bsky.social Another great song by Alessa Lamborghini: open.spotify.com/track/4FfynP...

Alessa Lamborghini is an artist I created on Spotify, Youtube, Apple etc. using AI. She has two albums out and I think some songs are genuinely good, e.g. open.spotify.com/track/4CvwKT... What do you think? Is music great on its own account, or does this depend on how it is created?

Trump has as good as declared war on Canada. Starmer has offered him a full honours state visit to the King of Canada. Awkward…

Without making light of the tragedy behind femicide, I do not find this headline particularly revealing, given that about 1 in 8 women in the UK is over 70. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The Big Baby Trump Balloon will fly again! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump is forcing Europe to quickly scale up its own defence capabilities. That may seem a good thing for the US, but it also means less US influence in Europe. A similar thing is happening in countries that used to rely on USAID. Trump is rapidly losing US influence on the world stage.

Great fun today singing with Rock Choir to the runners in The London Winter Run. Finished off with a short gig on Trafalgar Square near the finish. I have done this run myself a few years ago and I know how much these performances can lift your spirits as a runner. An all out feelgood event

Reposting this because it scares the shit out of me

Trump promised that the US would be respected again if he was elected. And the US is respected now. In the same way you would respect a gorilla who is high on crack and waving a machete around in your living room…

Een meer volwassen reactie van Wilders zou zijn dat hij uitlegt waarom de voorstellen van Faber wel uitvoerbaar zijn. Wilders ten voeten uit: een hoop drama, geen greintje inhoud. nos.nl/l/2555414

This is not look good of course, but great that the Labour government takes swift action to deal with these issues. That is what accountability looks like. Under the Tories ministers would usually spend weeks trying to defend the indefensible. Just think of Partygate. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Trump hates the EU for the same reason Rupert Murdoch, Elon Musk and Dominic Cummings hate it: the EU cannot be bullied into submission. It is one of the strengths of Europe in a world that is more and more dominated by powerful, narcissist individuals. I love it!
