Our actual enemies and the BBC’s commercial rivals hate everything that makes it important & valuable. (And they don’t help themselves much these days in all sorts of ways.) But this is a crucial test of the current government’s resolve.

What would Elon Musk have been posting if Russia signed a cease fire offer 3 days ago with the US and Ukraine was refusing to sign it? What would Vance be posting? Trump? So why have all 3 been completely silent since Ukraine has signed it and Putin refuses?

Comparisons often drawn between Trump and many other regimes: Germany in 30s; Mussolini's Italy But I keep thinking about a much more recent parallel. My latest, on how oligarchy destroys democracy and what 1990s Russia might teach us about Trump's US democracyforsale.substack.com/p/want-to-un...

I finally understand what the last week reminds me of. A much bloodier and cynical replay of 1994, when Russia and US teamed up to force Ukraine to sign the Budapest Memorandum while ignoring its request for guarantees. But if in 1994 the US had the excuse of being naive, now it is pure malice.

Trump knows nothing. And cares even less. He has not even a basic grounding in history. His tiny brain just seems to function through a very limited prism of vanity, greed and vindictiveness. Nothing beyond himself matters to him. He’ll burn it all down in his spasms of prejudice and egomania.

Reeves plans billions in benefits and spending cuts Wrong policy. Can't get growth by inflicting austerity, real income cuts, cutting public investment. Must redistribute, end profiteering, end tax perks of the rich; need wealth tax, Tobin tax, tax capital gains & dividends at same rate as wages.
