Canadian Prime Minister–designate Mark Carney: "Donald Trump thinks he can weaken us with his plan to divide and conquer. Pierre Poilievre's plan will leave us divided and ready to be conquered. Because a person who worships at the alter of Donald Trump will kneel before him, not stand up to him."

The UK public overwhelmingly say US oligarch Elon Musk is a threat to democracy and trying to sabotage their country. The majority see him as a joke and opportunist. "Musk is a deeply unpopular figure in the UK, with a net favourability rating of -35, lower than Nigel Farage or Tommy Robinson."

Give a man a fish, and he will have food for a day. Teach a man how to fish unsustainably, and he and everyone else will starve, as all the fish are gone.
