⬇️ Vince Cable: "The OBR suggests that the cost to our GDP is even worse than some of the more pessimistic predictions."
"We're talking about GDP being 5% less than it otherwise would have been. And that probably excludes the damage to business confidence"

It would be neat if it wasn’t marketed as AI. Predictive statistical modeling doesn’t really slide off the tongue I guess

Director of European Transport Safety Council: "Europe now risks being flooded with oversized, under-regulated US pick-up trucks and SUVs – heavier, more dangerous to other car drivers, pedestrians and cyclists, and completely out of step with Europe’s vision for safer, more sustainable mobility.”
This is an INSANE decision by the E.U.
“By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the U.S., the E.U. has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice that puts trade convenience ahead of saving lives.”
This will kill people.

The insistence here that Moscow has horrifying blackmail on Trump is just as nutty as MAGA world's dismissal of it.
Do the Russians know bad stuff about Trump? Of course they do.
Is it the weird stuff you guys think it is? Almost certainly not, and it's likely about money. /1

Women’s rights do not advance on their own.
They are won through persistence and can easily be lost without vigilance.
They are won through persistence and can easily be lost without vigilance.
Gender equality doesn’t just 'happen.'
Women’s rights must be fought for and protected.
Our responsibility is clear.
To lead by example and create a world where opportunities are fair for all.
Not just today, but every single day.

It is implicit in all conservative geopolitical thinking that the powerful have the right to conquer the less powerful. This is why, for example, they refuse to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine, or Israel's invasion of Gaza, and why they float ideas of invading Canada or Mexico.
