Unhappy with the political world. Wish we could go back to about 2012 and the London Olympics when everyone was nice to each other.

America needs Gavin Newsom and others to be providing this kind of information every single day. America is falling apart.

This is going to be great for tourism. I don’t want to go to the US for say 3 1/2 years…

I completely agree with this great article. Trump is an enemy. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is interesting. Is it kicking Google just as the free market is going to kill its monopolistic position anyway, ie I mean that ChatGPT and others are the beginning of the end for Google anyway? See www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It really does look like Trump is a Russian asset. This makes me sick to the stomach. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Harvard's Steve Levitsky, coauthor of How Democracies Die: "We are no longer living in a democratic regime." Must-listen interview - remarkably clear about the severity of the situation we now face www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...

Quote: The US is about to discover the one thing more dangerous than a politician who believes in nothing is a politician who believes in something stupid. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Great quote from open.substack.com/pub/davidaar... In the US something is ultra safe if it protects those inside the vehicle, regardless of what would happen to those outside in the event of an accident. In effete, over-regulated Europe it also matters what your car could do to other people.

Hope 1: that millions of Americans feel this way and can mobilise to do something about it. Hope 2: Trump crashes the US economy and loses the faith of his voters. It’s going to be a long and painful journey though.

This is quite the statement in response to Trump from the president of Colombia. "Maybe one day, with a glass of whiskey that I accept, despite my gastritis, we can talk frankly about this, but it's difficult because you consider me part of an inferior race and I'm not, nor is any Colombian."

Great thread with proper analysis to debunk the shockingly bad Telegraph hype.

Oh dear. This is just day one. Please can I do a rip van winkle and just go to sleep for four years.

Sounds like it’s going to be busier than in 2016 - full of fawning sycophants. Still washing my hair though.

I think I’ll be busy washing my hair. Or doing a Wordle. Or a million other things.

At Geneva airport and it’s no wonder all the planes seem to delayed because there’s a huge passport queue when you are on the way to the international gates. Staff also very unhelpful.

I agree. It’s complete bollocks. If anyone tells you excitedly about this petition (eg I have friends and siblings talking about it) then the simple answer which seems to work is: there was an election, you lost, get over it. So satisfying!

Just watched the first episode of Until I Kill You. It’s a true story they say. Like Baby Reindeer but without any soft side to it, only grit and pain.

I just went to see what my profile picture is on X and hey ho I can’t, as I deleted the X app weeks ago from my phone. Guess I’ll have to start over.

Perhaps the lesson of this is that no one should listen to anything Johnson says. Can’t we just ignore him now?
