This mashup of Trump’s disgusting attacks on female reporters — the same reporters who consistently show the most courage. And it’s past time for the other reporters in the room to have their backs!

We (the U.K.) have a very strange way of trying to succeed as a country. Elect a government, doesn’t really matter what colour, and then encourage the media to rip them apart, both personally and professionally, over the next four years so that a different party is elected. Rinse and repeat 🤷♂️!

Oh dear. Open goal missed.
It's not "the Brexit deal" that's the problem. That's the Labour line. That framing leaves the door open to the notion that a different Brexit deal might have worked.
No. Brexit itself is the problem. Inherently unworkable.
Depressing that you can't tell the difference.

Satellite data suggests the scale of the problem is vast - between 8000 + 13,000 illegal waste sites in the UK. Regulators are under-resourced to meet this challenge. They closed 700 dumps last year - a huge number until compared to the full number of sites.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.
