Marco Rubio didn't mention Russia or the Ukraine war in his speech on European security. Not once in his prepared remarks.

But he did push a racial/religious supremacist version of Western civilization and chastise them for immigration.

Basically the same speech as Hegseth, less boorishly phrased.

I totally read this as incidental brushes on the street as in people brushing past one another on the street and thought well yes its called the public and its quite common in London but never with eye contact. Interdental brushes sounds like a way of rubbing cocaine into the gums.

Antonia Romeo is the wrong choice for Cabinet secretary. A government which was serious about improving its performance would not select her.

GB finally win a medal at the winter olympics and it's gold for Matt Weston in skeleton.

First man to win a gold for GB since Christopher Dean 42 years ago.

@iandunt.bsky.social podcast mic is a bit snap crackle pop this end sounds like recording on vinyl. Try using an XLR lead rather than USB lead you can also get pop filters that help. I recently did a podcast on mental health with Network Rail and they swapped to XLR. The content as per was spot on.

UK ban on Palestine Action unlawful, high court judges rule Protest group’s co-founder wins legal challenge against decision to proscribe it under anti-terrorism laws

Outstanding. A triumph for liberty and against unrestrained state power. The government should be ashamed of having to be forced into this position.

If you need inspiration, just consider that your purchases on Amazon help fund the $40 million Trump bribe that was the Melania documentary.

IMPORTANT

The court has not yet formally ordered the quashing of the provision, and so it still remains in force pending an Order - see highlighted text.

So provision remains in force.

Suspect government may seek urgent appeal before Order made.

Day off from work to focus on masters study on organisational ethics. Its so grey outside so I've got my 'hapus' aromatherapy candle lit, it smells incredible and goes well with my lemon grass and ginger tea. Heaven knows hapus is in short supply lately. Enjoying a little bit of calm.
