Don’t be surprised if Trump seems particularly incoherent today. His instructions were probably clearer in the original Russian.

The best use of facial recognition cameras is for old people watching TV:
"Isn’t he the one from that film?"
"No, you’re thinking of whatsisname. But the woman is in that other thing."
"The one we don't watch?"
"No, she's younger, and this one's blonde."
"David something!”
“Who?”
“The tall one.”

I went to London today and it's unrecognisable. Gone are the cheerful Cockney chimneysweeps and flying nannies of my youth, replaced by terrifying people of different ethnicities and women wearing trousers. Roaming cannibal suffragettes. Giant bears. Tigers. Is it time for my medication?

Fascists attack universities because the totalitarian need for control is threatened by the power of education to free the mind. Ignorance is the lubricant of obedience.

Elon Musk is relying on a power centralising autocrat to shield his state-supported businesses from EU rules that protect open competition and free markets.
He’s also positioned himself as an unaccountable and supreme central regulator of his own government.
This is pure projection.

Nigel Farage says there's nothing wrong with Elon Musk donating to Reform UK.
Here's what he said about European born, US-based billionaire George Soros donating to UK and European human rights and pro-EU groups.
"This is an organised attempt... to undermine nation states, to undermine democracy".

Young Erwin was fond of his cat
Which was friendly and fluffy and fat
It was sealed in a box
With plenty of locks
But it also was not. Fancy that!
