Finalising my Brexile to Italy 🇮🇹 🇪🇺. Ex-lawyer, serial student of International Relations, Politics (BA; LLB, LLM; MSt Cantab), focus on nuclear strategy, European Security and autonomy from the US. Idiots and unsubstantiated comments blocked.
Andy Burnham or Angela Rayner would comfortably beat Keir Starmer in a leadership poll. Wes Streeting, not so much. 🤭
You know who would be better? Jack O'Connell. A much better actor (see Sinners and Godless).
My son's 9.5-hour flight from Dehli to London this morning (returning from Thailand) turned into a nearly 12-hour flight. The flight path was bizarre!
Europeans hate him too. Poll: “Do you consider Trump a friend or an enemy of Europe?”
20% in Europe seems conservative. This was change in EV sales, Feb 24-Feb 25. I don't imagine the pattern has improved!
I actually had to check that this $7.25 minimum wage wasn’t a joke. Do Americans know how comparatively awful that is?
Looks like Brits and Americans just aren’t trying hard enough yet! (and Australians are in total denial?).
Gen. Sir Nick Carter, former Chief of the Defence Staff "I had the privilege of looking after Donald Trump at the D-Day commemorations in 2019 for some half an hour or so, and it became very obvious to me that his understanding of history was somewhat limited... He really does need to be educated."
Already saved my boycott list (admittedly a Canadian one, but I haven’t seen a comprehensive UK one yet).
