Trump has withdrawn the US from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.

US will be the only country outside the UNFCCC treaty. It is the world's second largest carbon emitter.

Is the UK content that the US will operate outside international law?

Watch the Minister's reply.

BBC report at a headline level that Grok will now not make sexually exploitative images any more. An actual reporter comes on and explains that it will do no such thing, and will just make the images invisible in the UK. These are two very, very different things.

Meanwhile Cymru has been robbed of billions in Barnett funding by Westminster classifying English projects as “England and Wales”.

And this is why Labour barely scrapes 10% in the polls in a nation which it has dominated - and taken for granted - for a century.

We’ve had enough of this shit.

Under threat from the White House, the Smithsonian just removed mention of Trump's two impeachments from his official portrait.

It's the latest in Trump's ongoing attack on the American mind.

Like past authoritarians, he wants to control not just what we do, but also how we think.

The Royal Society continues to be happy to be associated with, indeed honour Elon Musk with fellowship, despite the Grok scandal.

Scotland pays GPs £210/patient/year
NHS Scotland agreed to increase funding by £45/patient/year

England pays GPs £169 this is £40 less than 2015 in real terms

GPs are asking for £40-£50/patient/year to fund patient care, this will only reverse the loss of funding
