It’s been a big, beautiful week of bad news for Trump. But don’t expect it to stick | Zoe Williams Elon Musk is tapping out, and a court has stepped in on tariffs. But the wheels coming off doesn’t mean the bus is stopping, says Guardian columnist Zoe Williams

On a 17-hour train journey I glimpsed our future – and it was ugly | Zoe Williams The climate crisis will cause dramatic, life-threatening events, but also a general, broad-brush worsening of everything

Kudos to #ZoeWilliams spurning all attempts to push her on to short haul airborne travel links during her recent visit to Köln - www.theguardian.com/commentisfre.... Our rail journey, to visit Photokina fair back in 2018, also had its problems but they were on the UK side of La Manche!
