Nigel Farage finally met a force he couldn’t shout down - the bond market.
You can’t outdrink a spreadsheet, and you can’t gaslight a Bloomberg terminal.
Round one: he lost.

A good reminder of a strangely underrated film.
Years after Hansel and Gretel defeated the wicked witch who planned to have them for her dinner, the siblings are now bounty hunters. Hell-bent on retribution, they have dedicated their lives to hunting and destroying every witch still lurking in their homeland - 2013 horror action, next watch

You mean that in the nearly six months that Reform’s DOGE has existed they haven’t achieved anything beyond issuing multiple angry and confused press releases about things they had now real clue about?
I am shocked - who would have expected something attached to Farage wouldn’t deliver?

Release the Epstein files you cowards!
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

As someone who started my career off translating, I spend WAY too much time pondering how obvious it is to me that the folks propelling translation AI are overwhelmingly monolingual. There are so many assumptions made about comparative linguistics that only monolingual people could believe.

Gay men who lack the
courage and honesty to
accept and embrace their
true sexuality should stay
out of politics.
They’re easily manipulated
by blackmailers, and you
should never trust anyone
whose whole life is a lie.
