Looking forward to that Daily Mail front page retracting its calls for Reeves to resign
Reasonably chunky drop in gilt yields this morning.

The GREAT PANIC of early 2025 has been wiped out.

Good to see brazen racist Robert Jenrick MP called out for what he is - & by former Tory adviser Samuel Kasumu:

"I think Robert Jenrick has the potential to be the most divisive person in our political history. Some of his words may result in some people dying”

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.

As I've argued Britain is unusually good at integration and it's something we should be proud of, while acknowledging where there is still work to do.
Telegraph (Fraser Nelson)

"Our immigrant population has almost doubled while our crime rate has halved....we seem to have attracted immigrants who, by and large, are prone to integrate and strengthen the social fabric."

Room full of satire writers will struggle to find a funnier line that the BBC Newsreader just now saying “The Chinese approached Prince Andrew in the hope of finding intelligence’”

I’m old enough to remember Boris Johnson telling businesses Brexit paperwork could go in a bin. Now they need a warehouse to store it in

Finds it amazing that a simple strawberry jam sandwich can transport me back to the late 1960's and Saturday afternoon tea, round my nans. Miss those days😊

Why is the government not capable wiping the floor with Nigel Farage every single day like this? Alastair Campbell effortlessly destroys him over his Brexit legacy which by almost every economic and financial measure has been disastrous for the country

Suspect Keir Starmer's decision not to prioritise reforms to political donations, either in his first King's Speech, or even now following the threat of Elon Musk bankrolling Farage, will be remembered as one of his worst

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved.

We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.

“Just three companies, News Corp (Murdoch family), Daily Mail & General Trust (DMGT, Viscount Rothermere) and Reach plc, control over 80% of daily newspaper circulation…

The hyper-rich continue to invest huge sums in acquiring control of media”

We need a free press - ie free from the billionaires.

It’s vital for democracy that we receive verifiable information that is not manipulated or controlled
