Emigré from “the other place” and doing my best to assimilate here. #FBPE - everywhere.

Welsh but not tribal, especially blessed to know lovely people in wonderful places all over this world.

The orange felon’s response to the deadly Brown University mass shooting is, “things can happen.”

What an evil immoral criminal piece of shit, he should be in jail, not in the White House. The world is so much darker under his tyranny.

This is what happens when the FBI is run by two right-wing conspiracy theorist podcasters who spent the last 11 months purging almost anyone with institutional knowledge from the bureau. They're going to keep fucking this kind of thing up.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Broadly good news for the UK that the US has paused trade talks since the next stages would have involved regulatory changes that the UK doesn't want to make.

Same dynamic globally - try to reduce US tariffs by promising things you won't actually deliver. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/13/b...

Farage “draws his power not from the sheer force of his arguments and personality, but increasingly just how recklessly the immigration issue has been handled by the political establishment… there is now a little bit of his poison everywhere”

In memory of Rob Reiner, please enjoy my favourite Wikipedia entry of all time, which is Former Members of Spinal Tap. Any time I need a laugh, I pull it up.

Unfortunately the BBC seems to be one of the best sources of facts right now. Think about it. A foreign news source is our best source of facts. 😳

They've invented many new scapegoats to blame our woes on since then.

The irony that Poland, a huge recipient of EU funds built up their public services capacity, infrastructure, manufacturing base, invested in skilling up workforce & general capital spending whilst the UK did austerity & Brexit 🫠

The right are never happy, especially not when they get what they want. This is precisely why it’s pointless to try to please them.

Kristi Noem claimed a few months ago that they arrested the girlfriend of the leader of Antifa and that was going to lead to the prosecution of the entire “organization.” What happened with that? Any updates?
