As part of the Ukraine peace deal, #FIFA will give Russia a wild card entry in to the World Cup in the USA. Ok, I made this up, but it'll probably be true next week.

When can you declare an emergency over?
The 5p “emergency” petrol tax cut was introduced in March 2022, to offset a spike in prices
They are now about 30p down on that month, & about 50p down on the absolute peak

Congress, pay attention. We the People decide where our money goes — not the President. And we are demanding full support for Ukraine, with everything they need to win. Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The American people do. Act accordingly.

It is indisputable that Brexit has been an economic disaster, and notable that none of its political architects have paid any price.

A jolt of a reminder that law and policy are ultimately about life and death.
