The PM should invite Mark Carney for an official visit and address to Parliament before Trumpβs visit.
It would show Britain backs Canada against Trumpβs damaging trade war. Now is the time to stand with the Commonwealth, not stand in Trumpβs shadow like Nigel Farage.

Trump may well achieve his goal of reducing the US trade deficit, but via the worst possible way: engineering recession at home and removing Americaβs and USDβs status as trusted safe haven. It would be a poorer, hostile nation but with trade surplus. Sort of like Russia. Some win.

The Biggest Loser in Wisconsin
The richest man in the world could not buy an election
New, from me:
Elon Musk is the biggest loser in Wisconsin.
His brazen effort to buy a state supreme court did not just fail - it undermined his image of political kingmaker.
This is the clearest indicator that voters are angry with Trump/Musk agenda.

Quoted in the FT today about prospects for a UK-US deal. The UK has offered a lot and seemingly got nothing- which doesn't mean there won't be opportunities in the future.

Trump and the end of American soft power
Joseph Nye coined the term for the influence countries exert through attraction. Here he sets out why exclusive nationalism is likely to prove a losing strategy
Great essay on the decline of US soft power by Joseph Nye.
"[Trump] is so obsessed with the problem of free riders that he forgets that it has been in Americaβs interest to drive the bus."
Trump also doesn't consider that riders may take another bus, car share, or bike. The world is not static.

I remember when America was Richard Scarry's colorful pages, where I'd lose myself for hours.
This is so beautifully crafted and expresses so much of my sentiments (and memories) - thank you @alexverbeek.bsky.social
