COP30 in Brazil was billed as the “implementation summit”, when hot air turned to action. But Edelman, the PR firm that won the contract to promote the climate summit, was pulling in two directions.

Something (pun intended) that strikes me it's just how good the 'B' sides were. What made them secondary to the hits when they were just as good if not better? Eg: Things we said today - the B of A Hard Days Night. It should have been a hit in its own right.
Watching The Beatles Anthology. The backdrop to my life. Even now. Yeah Yeah Yeah.

Ringo always looked as though he was thoroughly enjoying himself. Maybe because he didn't have the pressure of composition like John and Paul or the upfront persona of George.

As for Farage’s use of racist slurs being confined to his childhood - well, that's not what Alan Sked, the founder of UKIP, claimed in this 2014 interview.
He says here that Farage was using the "n" word as late as 1997.
Farage would have been about 33 at time.

![Andy Field, 61, an NHS doctor who said he
knew Farage well because they took the
same train to school, has similarly clear
memories.
"When I became a prefect, he [Farage] said,
Tll show you how to do it,' claimed Field,.
"He took me for a walk up to the lower
school playground, where all the children
from about nine years old to 12 would be.
And he singled out, completely at random, a
kid of Asian extraction, and just put him in
detention for no reason whatsoever. I was
flabbergasted, absolutely stunned. I was just
disgusted, really. No rhyme or reason, just
purely based on the colour of his skin.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5mqpgxjffcckasqv7h6g7itu/bafkreifwa2hlzevsllsekm44ne6yprkgrfhwryxxclupy3cz2qqj42sxma@jpeg)
