GREENLANDERS: “Trump, if you’re watching this— don’t come. Don’t buy Greenland. Greenland is not for sale.” (From Sky News)
Again: Putin wants NATO to evaporate. Too much *analysis* ignores the potential of his hand in making Trump do this to hurt our interests and help his.

The most explicit threat from Government so far on X. A ban would have the "full backing of the Government" if Musk continues failing to comply with the law
NEW: Liz Kendall, the technology secretary, says Ofcom would have the "full backing" of government if it opted to block access to X in the UK (but it's a decision for Ofcom)

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?

After a long time, I have finally published my new story.
And after much thought, I have decided on a new approach. Rather than publishing on amazon as an e-book, I will be posting them on blogger.
