Absolutely spot on from Rory Stewart

WOW!! The number of @bsky.app users just hit the 30 MILLION milestone!! 👏

LETS KEEP GOING!

They really, really need to pin this on Farage. When you think of the 'big beasts' of Brexit bollocks, there's not really anyone else left in the game so it should be quite easy.

Excellent question.

Your Musk/Trump tick list...

The Daily Trumpygraph reports after an exhausting day of Trump,

Good morning.

Daily Mail front page featuring Boris Johnson’s claim that he witnessed a ‘pulse of power’ surge from the ‘Bible into the hand of Donald Trump’.

Boris Johnson here, reporting on the moment Donald Trump *didn’t touch a Bible*.

Absolutely correct. This is why we need to grow @bsky.app. We need to do it at pace and with urgency

I was in Willesden Magistrates Court this morning, having pleaded (pled?) Not Guilty to a speeding offence on the notorious A20. I've written a blogpost about the experience. Spoiler 1: Case was dismissed. Spoiler 2: Neither the Met or CPS emerge well.

Spain’s Deputy PM quits Musk’s X after ‘gestures’ at Trump inauguration She joins a list of politicians to announce they are leaving the platform

Spanish Labour Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Yolanda Diaz has said she will withdraw from Elon Musk’s social media platform X due in part to the billionaire’s behaviour during President Donald Trump’s inauguration

The Farage factor.

Keir Starmer appealing to people's rationality & respect for the rule of law the morning after Donald Trump appealed to the polar opposites. Feels like a moment.

As a foreigner, Musk should keep his money and his mouth out of our politics.

Donald Trump says UK’s retreat from North Sea oil and gas is a ‘big mistake’ The US president-elect also said the Government should get rid of ‘windmills’ in a social media post about British energy policy.

Donald Trump rarely makes any sense, whatever he’s talking about. Injecting bleach to fight the coronavirus is a great example of his bad advice - to a whole nation... This is another.

Why I'm quitting the Washington Post Democracy can't function without a free press

“As an editorial cartoonist, my job is to hold powerful people & institutions accountable. For the first time, my editor prevented me from doing that critical job..I will not stop holding truth to power through my cartooning.. “Democracy dies in darkness” 👏

Matt Gaetz, eh? With Trump, it’s always the ones you most expect…
