However, there is a whiff of Arms Race about the place..pre-WW1 more so perhaps? Coupled with a sense of 'nostalgia' across the liberal democracies for strong man governments and scare mongering...its hard not to fear the atmosphere of the 1930s. We need to face this and protect our democracies.

Catherine may need the counsel of media savvy advisors but also needs to assure and show her faithful voters that she is capable of staying true to her principles while delivering the message with the necessary nuance and diplomacy (which is a requirement of the role)

Black propaganda...we're obviously ruffling the wrong (or right) feathers

This analysis, language and tone doesn't offer much hope for a mature and principled end to this war. Tantrums, shouting, foot stomping and breath holding are undignified and unbecoming of the leader of a country that so many hold in high regard. This is deeply depressing.

Pure Glam!

Irony...its like steeley but softer (baldrick)

its origins are authentic, its relevance to the much of the diaspora acknowledged, its story of migration, slavery and trafficking still alarmingly relevant If we can ignore the crass commercialisation there's still a valuable story for us to share with the world

Et tu Brute? Et the whole lot Julius!

by their friends you shall know them...

the stories that mouse could tell....dont let him.die...just be temporarily ossified and live to tell the (mouse) tail

a world of Pluto-hats

nice work!

you're flying Des!

this is verrry good!

excellent..the large format allows for detail and colour it seems. Did these appear in newspapers?

that looks great..hope the day got even better

Or maybe for non delivery of slaintecare, long waits for kids surgery, the nightmare of a+e, disability services and no coherent strategy for the elderly, access to GPs and the perceived runaway project that is the childrens hospital. Few would've envied him the job but on his watch so...?
