1/ Trump is not a new Hitler. He has no ideology and no grand plan. Trump's mentality is that of Assad and Saddam Hussein - greedy, brutal, corrupt, vindictive, narcissistic and utterly amoral.

Two final points.
In 2019 Boris Johnson celebrated his General Election Victory with Alexander Lebedev
In 2022, Canada sanctioned Alexander Lebedev for being on of Putin’s inner circle
Just ponder that.

Since we released this @johnsweeneyroar.bsky.social documentary two years ago, more information has come to light that Boris Johnson went to this meeting to discuss a 'backchannel' to Putin with Alexander Lebedev, who was working for the Kremlin in Crimea at the time

COP30 in Brazil was billed as the “implementation summit”, when hot air turned to action. But Edelman, the PR firm that won the contract to promote the climate summit, was pulling in two directions.

Something (pun intended) that strikes me it's just how good the 'B' sides were. What made them secondary to the hits when they were just as good if not better? Eg: Things we said today - the B of A Hard Days Night. It should have been a hit in its own right.
Watching The Beatles Anthology. The backdrop to my life. Even now. Yeah Yeah Yeah.

Ringo always looked as though he was thoroughly enjoying himself. Maybe because he didn't have the pressure of composition like John and Paul or the upfront persona of George.

As for Farage’s use of racist slurs being confined to his childhood - well, that's not what Alan Sked, the founder of UKIP, claimed in this 2014 interview.
He says here that Farage was using the "n" word as late as 1997.
Farage would have been about 33 at time.
