Grim grimmer grimmest

The USS George H W Bush carrier strike group will arrive in the Middle East within 3-4 days, presumably ready for Trump’s deadline for Iran.

Interested to see if he’s prepared to deplete the entire stock of munitions and leave the US defenceless. Of course, Iran knows this.

BETTER than Ezra!
Check out my interview on the new #FentonForecast:

We're seeing prediction market corruption more and more in the federal government.

Donald Trump thinks it's ok to cheat, but I won't allow it in state government.

Underrated post!!!! 😎

An Invention of Collective Nouns   A reckoning of spreadsheets. A distraction of smartphones. A prattle of podcasts. A mispronunciation of scones.   A clique of photographers. A heard of precedents. An enjambment of poets. A grope of presidents.   A pile of haemorrhoids. A bunion of personal trainers. A bout of estimations. A condescension of mansplainers.   A stroke of geniuses. A spot of adolescents. An embarrassment of Richards. A collection correction of pedants. Brian Bilston

Today’s poem is called ‘An Invention of Collective Nouns’.

I would rather Keir Starmer puts his energy into keeping our Country safe and our economy steady. We are already feeling the benefits this month. Pensions, Min wage up and 2 child cap removed.

The media should stop their hounding of a very productive, decent PM

#ProductivePM

The rest is media outrage. Ends. Tedium. 🕳️🐍

The question was:

Has Starmer lied.

The Answer was:

No

The rest is media outrage that he didn’t lie.

Tech giants and giant slayers: the case for digital sovereignty Digital Sovereignty – control over a country’s digital infrastructure, data and technology – is critical for economic and national security

A handful of global tech firms now underpin our economies, governments, & public discourse.
They aren’t elected.
They aren’t neutral.
And increasingly – they aren’t accountable.

Not to be seen on the BBC TV News, doesn’t suit their agenda .

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

The sight of salivating hacks waiting to pile into Labour for the likely Trump created inflation figure is not pretty.
The same hacks were mute when good unemployment and wage data were published.

Trump Keeps Trying to Pressure Ukraine. Zelensky Doesn’t Care. The American president is trying to use leverage he doesn’t have.

Steve Witkoff has visited Moscow seven times yet never traveled to Kyiv. For some reason, the Trump administration isn't playing its cards against Vladimir Putin.

Who knew - despots walk amongst us…

Always simply ask "What would Putin have us do?" and you'll have your answer:

Bonkers!

True!!!

Earlier I met with the Electrical Contractors’ Association to discuss the decline in people starting electrical apprenticeships - which has fallen 5.5%.

Our drive to decarbonise Britain relies on skilled electricians. We must reverse this trend to keep building the workforce needed for the future.

You couldn't make it up: Suella Braverman, a former Erasmus student, voted against the UK joining the scheme.

So she can have the opportunity, but others can’t? How ironic...
