Tomato juice is a popular onboard drink for many people - but you might not see people ordering it if you go to a regular bar on the ground. So why do so many people order it up in the sky?

That'll be the demograph both trying to care for elderly parents with no social care, and support adult children who still can't afford their own houses, or to have children. They're seeing the impact of everything.
Coming back to this, it's striking when we talk about the most disillusioned in society the image is usually Gen Z man or a retired man. But (albeit from a high baseline) the person most likely to say things in the UK today are getting worse is a woman in her late 50s/early 60s.

Brilliant read
In economics, as in geopolitics, Trump fundamentally misunderstands the limits of American power. It is at the centre of everything he does. The markets, the only real impediment to him now, may be about to teach him how wrong he is.

Again and again, Trump misunderstands the limits of American power.
And as a result is taking us to a global financial precipice.

The fact he’s put a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Island which is solely populated by penguins is AMAZING.

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

No, Britain did not get off lightly in the Trump tariffs. And no, it is not much of a vindication of Brexit. Or at the least seeing it is an economic dividend is to conveniently look away from the more substantial economic costs.
