A reminder to the British press: Donald Trump just says stuff. Reporting what he says as though it’s fact will inevitably make you look like an idiot. There’s not going to be a US/UK trade deal imminently and Trump really doesn’t care about the UK, even if he likes being flattered.

Trump has now asked Elon Musk to examine US defence spending. Elon Musk’s companies have multi billion dollar contracts with the Department of Defense and are seeking more. The BBC’s Today Programme just reported the first part, without mentioning the second. Unacceptable

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

A remarkable listen. Andrew Norfolk carefully, softly, devastatingly sets out all the context you need to understand the current discourse. He is balanced, sensitive and doesn't shy away from identifying the failings and those that have been failed. A stark contrast to other voices.

Latest snow depth charts which aren’t great as many over do it but the four different models give an idea of how the models vary in the forecast. Snow is likely for some Sunday so the school holidays could be extended for some Monday morning.
