If the congressional Democrats wanna get a message out - maybe go big on a bill that drastically reduces the power of the US President to unilaterally impose tariffs? Maybe somewhere to start. Easy to understand for your typical voter

I voted and campaigned for Labour this summer, and think Starmer has had an excellent week given the circumstances and low expectations. But it’s worth remembering that NHS waiting times and the economy will be what delivers him a second term - Trump does nothing to help either of these challenges.

Errors like this probably happen more than people realise. But banks quickly catch them, they have many other controls in place.

The Hubris score for this first month of the Trump administration feels off the charts. It’s wild. How he reacts to the problems he’s creating will be intriguing.n

If the betrayal from the United States towards Ukraine isn’t a clearer warning signal for Europe, I don’t know what is. Europe (inc. UK) needs to come together. No “ever closer union” crap - one single goal. I suggest cheap, abundant and secure energy for every person and business. Focus on that.

Obviously Trump will go with supply side - but lower demand? He’s very likely to fumble social security or healthcare cuts - a lot of his base consumes them. Almost certainly would not favour higher interest rates. He’s always argued for a weaker dollar to help exports. Tariffs? Taxes?

Some don't want posts like this on @bsky.app. I want more. Why ? This is a moderated platform. Which means unbridled hate is removed. And blocked. Making this is a platform where we can engage and have real discussions on real issues. @bsky.app w 100m users changes political discourse.

The Athletic “Talk of the Devils” podcast would be fine if they let @lauriewhitwell.bsky.social get on with it and sack off the other three. Unlistenable start. There was absolutely more Rangers fans in home sections vs Galatasaray. Host just interrupting with his shit TV puns for way too long.

To me the cool thing about this image is that the sprinkling of blue stars are in the foreground, some 5 million light years away, while all those gorgeous colorful swirly galaxies are almost unimaginably more distant, out in the far depths of the cosmos. More info: www.stsci.edu/contents/med...

It is such a good Premier League this season. Feels like almost every team has a chance. Different to 15/16 - feels like there is a higher level of quality there too.

20 years ago Rupert Lowe was a weird toff on Sky Sports News doing a bad job of explaining why he was relegating Southampton. Today he is seemingly being championed by the world’s richest man who’s totally of his head to be the next Prime Minister. What a strange turn of events.

This has to be the most dishonest reporting of an opinion poll I've ever seen The survey actually found that over two thirds of voters do not think Starmer will be out of No 10 within a year.

It was so uncomfortable seeing the way Man Utd fans treated Zirkzee today. Most unpleasant thing I’ve had to experience at Old Trafford, there are many around me wincing. He never deserved that.

Man Utd fans need to back #Amorim and accept there’s more pain ahead. This is a tough situation: massive transfer debts, limited sellable assets, and a squad not built for his system. Transformation will be slow. Here’s why we need patience 🧵

If the Musk faction does win the H1B fight among Trumpists, it would be remarkable that within the pro-Trump and pro-Brexit coalitions it's the "More immigration from India" group were the one who identifiably got what they wanted.

Having worked on #Syria full-time since the crisis began nearly 14yrs ago, there really is no understating how remarkable the losses imposed on #Assad's regime have been over the past week. A large reason for this lies with #HTS — a 🧵:
