New Home Office impact assessment finds that cutting skilled and social care visas will cost the UK up to £10 billion with a central estimate of -£5.4 billion.

It would be good if this got even a fraction of the coverage devoted to the endless debate about boats, flags and Turkish barber shops

My brand-new #MotorSport column examines the pros & cons of #F1 teams running a number-1 driver & a number-2 (Red Bull) as opposed to running 2 number-1s (McLaren). It worked for McLaren this year, but it was squeaky-bum time towards season’s end!

Matt Bishop: McLaren F1 duet played a winning tune — but soloist Max almost made it to No1
A harmonious McLaren beat the brute brilliance of Max Verstappen in 2025, but its collaborative approach hasn't always succeeded against the razor-sharp focus of a one-driver F1 team

Sam Tingle won the non-championship #F1 #VanRiebeeckTrophy at Killarney in an LDS Mk3. #AnorakFact 1: Killarney remains unaltered since its last facelift in ’60. #AnorakFact 2: LDS cars were made by Doug Serrurier, full name Louis Douglas Serrurier, born #OnThisDay in 1920.

Remembering Bernardus ‘Ben’ Pon, born #OnThisDay in ’36, who won his class at Le Mans in ’61 & ’67, & raced just once in #F1, at Zandvoort in ’62, in this cute Ecurie Maarsbergen Porsche 787. He spun on lap 3, the car flipped, he flew out, & he landed in a bush, uninjured. (1/2)

#HappyBirthday André Milhoux, 97, a touring car racer who was a guest of Gordini for the ’56 #GermanGP. André Pilette was injured in practice so Milhoux took over his Gordini T32, qualified it 22nd & last, & thereby drove a one-off #F1 GP at Nürburgring. F1 was different then!

The fact the police are investigating Reform over alleged election overspend is potentially far more serious than you might imagine. If found guilty it could actually lead to a VOID election. Farage could lose his seat and be barred from office for 3 years and a by election could be called! 🤞

President of the European Council: Allies must act as allies.

We must respect each other's sovereignty.

Europeans do not share the same vision as the Americans on various issues. This is natural. What we cannot accept is the threat of interference in Europe’s democratic life.

One of many Cambridge street watercolours I did 30-40 years ago. Working on the spot uniquely preserves memories and feelings. The shop signs at that time in Green St were extravagantly beautiful and the passers by were sketched in quickly. Still have this one.

Well. Somebody liked that race. Little Lando Norris winning his first #F1 title. GG.

However, who else won out and lost out around the #Formula1 #AbuDhabiGP of 2025? Last time this year, folks.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

#OnThisDay a year ago, in Abu Dhabi, my good friend Kevin Magnussen drove his 185th & (so far) last #F1 GP. Fittingly, he notched up the fastest lap - a nice way to bow out of F1. Lando Norris won the race.

It’s official! Lando Norris completes the UK’s #F1 #First11. Today he became the 11th British F1 world champion, after Mike Hawthorn, Graham Hill, Jim Clark, John Surtees, Jackie Stewart, James Hunt, Nigel Mansell, Damon Hill, Lewis Hamilton & Jenson Button. Bravo 👏! #AbuDhabiGP

I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so.

This is very long overdue.

Over on the Facebook, you can bet that whether it's ICE brutalizing immigrant toddlers, or the US military mass-murdering civilians in international waters, every person cheering it on makes sure that you know they are a "Christian" in their profile. Every. Single. One.

You want to hear from the PM or government directly and cut out the media from the equation?

The PM has joined substack yesterday and posted up his first newsletter.

Along side it, he says "Communication is changing, and I want to be a part of that..."
