En solo cuatro meses, Trump ha sumido a EE UU en el caos, la confusión y la incertidumbre con su errática política comercial y su agresiva agenda presupuestaria. El peligro no es solo de recesión, sino también de crisis fiscal e incluso financiera

Remember when the British Brexit MEPs turned their backs on Europe. They admired Putin and Russia.
This is now The Reform Party.

when writing about the rise of British populism it’s worth bearing in mind that voters still prefer Starmer to Farage…

….and even prefer Ed Davey to Farage

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.

It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.

IT IS A COUP
This is what should be on every front page in 150 point banner headlines. All I have is this Substack but I lay it beneath your feet and pray to a higher power that I'm wrong.

Call it what it is. Trump is explicitly stating he wants to forcibly displace Palestinians. As per the Genocide Convention, this is an absolute call for genocide by the United States President. This isn't a matter you "debate". It is something you condemn, no questions asked. #r4today

This is truth. SO many of you have no idea the sputtering, wild-eyed meltdown you would trigger.

Criticism means nothing coming from marginalized person; they've already decided we don't matter. But YOU? You're supposed to be on THEIR side. And I can almost guaranteed they just assume you are.
Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man
The responsibility for resisting and correcting this behavior shouldn’t fall solely on a specific gender. If you’re a man of conscience and you see another man mimicking Nick Fuentes, fuck him up on sight before the women even get a chance. I mean that.

Remarkable: Spain's post-2008 GDP has now grown more in % terms than Germany's, mainly thanks to the last three years (h/t @danielkral.bsky.social).

Welcome to 2025. New post on my Brexit & Beyond Blog. A look at how the year has started both quietly and noisily in terms of Brexit-related news, how that's the shape of things to come, and how to stay sane: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2025/01/welc...

This isn't complicated.

He's bored, depressed, and helping Trump win didn't silence the sadness or make people stop laughing at him, so he's going abroad in the hopes of finding more Libs to own.
It is really quite amazing to see a number of commentators try and find explanations for Musk’s supposed “obsession with Britain”.
Guys.
He is just as obsessed with Germany.
Do read some international news.

Of course, the implication Wallace wants us to make is that there is no way that a man as famous and important as he is could ever be attracted to these middle aged women.

May I point out this is coming from a man who looks like an over-boiled bollock.

Boris Johnson, who:

- Imposed big new restrictions on protests
- Restricted the right to strike
- Banned anyone critical of the government from speaking at official events

Says locking up people who incited racist riots is like living in "Orwell's 1984"
