To establish my (quite speculative) thesis about the decline of “Parliament’s shadow” I cite the rock-solid authorities of Paul Kennedy’s “The Rise & Fall of the Great Powers,” Kipling’s “Recessional” & #1066AndAllThat. (This isn’t my central claim but it was a fun one to make!) 7/

A #CBCRadio(?) interview of #KateBeaton (for the show #TheNextChapter), where she talks about some of the books that left a mark on her. One of which is #1066AndAllThat, a book I never heard of - though it sounds impressive! Ⓐ

I’m glad HMG has carefully studied history in its dealings with the Trump bullies and acted just as we did when our leaders were great. I mean, OK, the model is Alfred the Great and we are now paying the US its Danegeld, but hey, that all ended well, didn’t it? #1066andAllThat

Nice. Careening my way toward the end of David Mitchell’s _Unruly_, which touches upon the so-called Norman Conquest and saw this. Wondering if DM has this delightful item in wardrobe.

A chap with an arrow in his eye, sketched by a clerk in a Bordeaux customs register recording exports in 1357. What did he mean by it? (It's immediately under a crossed-out entry for a ship from Teignmouth, if that helps.)
