Hybrid warfare isn’t tanks or missiles.
It’s psychological.
In the UK, one of its most effective targets has been the Brexit debate, especially citizens’ rights and Freedom of Movement — because they go to identity, belonging, and fairness.

Seems there is a resilience issue to think through before we all get self driving cars.
This is WILD.
Power goes out in San Francisco and the robot cars, needing the lights to "self" drive, all stop at once, blocking streets and emergency vehicles - which are needed more than ever in a black out!
We knew AI causes power outages. Turns out it also makes them worse by being stupid.

Waymo has halted service in San Francisco after numerous videos & images showed its autonomous cars snarling traffic during the blackout.
With traffic lights down, Waymos across the city stopped dead in their tracks at intersections.

Russia has joined the attack on the BBC. It's becoming clear that what is happening is not a criticism of a mistake by the BBC, but an international fascist attack on British democracy. You only have to see the extraordinary number of trolls unleashed on X to know that's what is happening.

Trump and tariffs - a metaphor...
Think about trying to survive a shark attack.
Your options?
Punch it again and again and again until it gives up or you lose all strength (Canada, Mexico, EU etc.)
Or lie passively while it eats your leg in the vague hope that it will go away stuffed (Britain).

Okay, at this point, with so many aircraft incidents in the last month, I have to conclude that it is the fault of the trump administration. I cannot recall in recent history, this many aviation issues in 1 month, right after president musk started his purge.

The UK election was a relief but the riots were unsettling & since then it’s been tough to feel massively optimistic but I still hope good things can come from Labour. The US is heartbreaking. Same for many other parts of the world. Elon Musk remains one of my least favourite people. See you in 25!
