My mum would have been 92 yesterday. Here’s a poem she wrote back in the 1960s, taken from her pamphlet, The Other Side of the Water. Happy Birthday, Mum! (Sorry- as was often the case, I’m a day late!)

I love how Trump, Vance and Musk style themselves defenders of free speech, while simultaneously banning government agencies from mentioning climate change or diversity (inc biodiversity!), equity and inclusion, or even possessing maps which show the Gulf of Mexico. Torquemadas the lot of them.

Question Time last night was pretty fierce. And had to be. There's a deliberate effort now to shift the ground: towards appeasement, inhumanity and authoritarianism. Once more, we must resist it. We must fight hard for kindness. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

The way Trump has been dealing with Ukraine, it already feels like if there were no peace deal, Europe would be fighting a proxy war against Trump and Putin in Ukraine.

If, for example, the Chinese state did half of what Musk and Trump are doing to the US federal government, degrading its capacities, undermining its ability to function, destabilising the Union, it would be considered an act of war. These are not patriots. They're an urgent threat to national life.
