A tightly coiled spiral staircase, the steps are dark and the walls whitewashed
The spiral staircase of Cahir Castle, Tipperary. I wouldn't fancy having to go down these after quaffing a few medieval ales!

The tone of the articles about British people in Dubai is fascinating. The Telegraph et al should be sympathetic to beleaguered British wealth abroad but it reads as faintly mocking.

Agree. There is one merchant banker over here with Siberia in his title. Figure that. Total bs

Against a red background, artistic imagery suggests a lake and sunshine, a mother and child, and a shoemaker and pair of shoes.

I was on Cross Question last night arguing that it would be foolish to follow the War Criminal and Episodic Man into Iran. Kind of like following an arsonist into a burning building. Strongmen motivated entirely by their own self interest can not be trusted.

"non-citizen voters" (yes, this is a thing here in 🇬🇧) are just voters.

Anti-semitism is a serious issue and should be called out but i’ve found it impossible to find the report. I have gleaned some slight issues of concern with the widely circulated claim.

Before today, no F-15 had been shot down in more than 35 years — since January 19, 1991, during the Persian Gulf War.
Before today, the U.S. had never had more than one aircraft shot down by friendly fire in a single day, let alone three.
Prof. Robert Pape:
"I have studied every air campaign since WWI... I've modelled the bombing of Fordow and regime change in Iran for 20 years... We are now in the grip of the escalation trap... This has never worked in over 100 years... Trump is up against the weight of history".
