Awful journalism as no context given. This guy thinks he is a genius because his pension is up 22% in 18 months (supposedly because he moved it to SIPP, went to 100% equities and traded so well). Except MSCI ASWI (global equity benchmark) is up 28.5% in that time... www.thetimes.com/article/1786...
There ends an era of #cycling in UK. So disappointed #LeTour de France will no longer be shown on terrestrial UK television.
Meta AI tells me the dangerous creatures referred to is probably a dragon. My job seems safe for a few years at least...
If he had wanted to he could have done it in 2024 (but prioritised World Champs...he could have won all four, IMHO). It may become an objective for him in the future.
It’s like that whole ‘subtract your age from the year you were born thing’.
Don’t do that.
Peter Hesgeth presser was joke. He talks in absolute terms. He projects absolute certainty about something he cannot be certain about. He attacks the press for challenging the certainty he projects. But that's their job.
It is all about image for this administration.
He may be made to look a fool.
The capacity of finance journalists to ignore dividend yield is astonishing. This suggests a FTSE100 investment from 10yrs ago wouldn't have kept place with inflation. The index would not: but an investment with yield would have. Easily (& yielded far more than cash) www.thetimes.com/article/59a6...
At least three have been important sources of vaccine misinformation - very bad www.washingtonpost.com/health/2022/... science.feedback.org/review/scien... sciencebasedmedicine.org/unethical/
Cars, of course, famously emit nothing potentially fatal to others from their rear ends...
Spurs: We want an entertaining, trophy winning game team.
Postecoglu: Here is attacking football, a Europa League trophy and a Champions League place.
Spurs: You're sacked.
must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away
There’s been another Tweet Chris! But from who?
The antidote to depressing political news is to read about a decent man trying to make a difference

Ah, now I recognise the fonts etc!
Can you explain for the uninitiated?
When it comes to the law, I'm betting on Harvard law professors over Trump's administration.
That Trump attempting to bully Harvard barely registers any more is a sad indictment of how low US politics has fallen under Trump. Universities need to work together to stand up to Trump or their independence will erode.
Not really bothered about football, but the Ange Postecoglu press conference tomorrow will be fun! Well done Spurs!
Orban making overtures to Simion made sense from one perspective only: to gain an illiberal ally in the EU Council. Orban chose to make this incredibly costly gamble, essentially betraying the Transylvanian voters his party spent decades cultivating. And he lost. This is likely consequential.
Agree but the relevance of yes minister still amazes me. Virtually all of the dilemmas are still resonant. The Middle East, Europe, transport, industrial policy, defence, “up north”, councils, arts funding, personal data, the literal physical space of No 10, it’s all there
That is a lot of dwarfs.
Oh god France's entry does look like explosive diarrhoea, doesn't it? #Eurovision
That's about equivilent to the value of the average US household monthly savings.
“There’s a small but growing tribe of pontificators, politicians and columnists who can be relied on to mock and demolish net zero without suggesting any alternatives. This is just climate denialism in a posh suit.”

Did Danny Baker became a Cardinal?
Got to be in it...to be in it...
He's only going to move to a CL team and may be very happy to stay at Napoli if they do go on to win the Serie A.
He doesn't look 85, he is probably an idiot with money, but he remains a comedy hero and in this he is 100% correct. John Cleese:
Tesla results look awful. What is even worse is that Q1 includes about a month before DOGE implemented anything and the anti-Tesla feeling has only grown since then. Q2 is going to be FAR worse.
