Good. Expensive, needless politicisation where there should be a separation of powers

Clearly this must be on advice from the AG, that US policy is extrajudicial murder. Therefore future prosecutions in the ICC are possible.

What will be interesting is if any future administration is willing to give up US citizens (Trump, Hegseth etc) - the have history of not, regardless of crime

In 2022, Ukraine had just 10 drone makers. Today there are 500—building everything from agile FPV units costing a few hundred dollars to long-range systems that reach deep behind enemy lines. Bloomberg estimates annual output at about 4 million drones, more than all NATO countries combined.👇

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.
Every single time.

In 2024, Bet 365's CEO got a salary - not total package, just salary - of £94.7m.

A lot of people have to lose their bets to pay that.

We should be MASSIVELY curtailing betting, not promoting it further. It's a cancer in society.
You may have missed this gem yesterday. From which we learn that:

1. Betting shops are really good for the mental health of isolated people.
2. Most drug-takers are not a problem.
3. Kids put tuppence in slot machines in the hope of getting rich.
4. Farage probably has a gambling industry donor.

Every time I'm so alarmed at the sorry state of basic US civic education that I'm inspired to write a book about how the federal government works—I know exactly what and how I'd write; not a desk-reference tome, not a dummies—I remember that it's because so many folks won't read we're where we are.

Eldest has just shocked me, and I’m not easily shocked.

On the radio in the car, Absolute are giving away £625,000 this Friday.

Eldest likes their designer stuff very much. I asked, “if you won the £625,000, what would you do?”

“Move abroad.”

This generation understand.

Fighting climate change is anything but futile, even at this late stage
Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

It seems that Banksy has just appeared in Lviv

We already know that in these difficult times, the world's most famous street artist has chosen Ukraine.

Art as resistance. Art as solidarity. Art as voice.
When the world watches, artists speak.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?
