A great thread by my friend, the peerless @ruthdeyermond.bsky.social - a must #follow on foreign affairs.

As (intimidatingly) brilliant as always.
It's New Year, so time to look back and forward. These are 10 things I think we need to recognise in 2026. It’s a response to what I think are profoundly damaging mistaken assumptions I’ve heard and read from practitioners, journalists, and analysts in 2025. Warning: very long🧵

Badenoch just really fucking hates being normal, doesn't she?
Farage, Polanski and Corbyn's choices are all good, Davey's is a typical boring dad choice, and Badenoch's response is characteristically unhinged

What I genuinely love about Badenoch is that she never fails to find new ways to screw up the soft ball stuff.

I'm going to have to make my own mottar paneer because there isn't a single curry house here... But all the peas I've found here are shit.

And don't even get me started on how I'm going to manage to make naan for myself.

One week they're crying about people getting visits from the police because of tweets, the next week they're calling for inquiries into tweets.

Idiot. A Frenchman has no history in common with a German. Imagining they could create a country together is pure fantasy from a deracinated upper class.

How much electricity is wasted by n00bs asking the same five questions on any given game's subreddit compared to five good guides on gamefaqs.com supporting enough nerds at once to successfully take Moscow in a land war?

Everyone always wants to know “Who is the American gestapo?” but no one ever stops to ask “How is the American gestapo?”
Just thinking... we give so much attention (as we should!) to the victims of state violence, ie, people sent to CECOT.

But, we give little consideration to the psychic violence suffered by those tasked with carrying out the physical violence.

Yes, they "chose" those jobs. But...

Come and FUCKING claim him!
The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word?

Sir Terry Pratchett is best understood as one of the most interesting, deeply ethical practical (I would say Pragmatist but I cede to actual experts) philosophers of the late 20th Century who just happened to work in deconstructed fantasy literature as his medium.

He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.
