That the Nobel Peach Prize was *not* awarded to thirsty Donald Trump makes it wonderful. That it was awarded to a woman makes it even better. That she is from a country Trump slanders makes it even better. That it was awarded for promoting democracy, something Trump undermines, makes it perfection.

We all know Brexitβs to blame for the crisis facing UK steel β itβs time for politicians to be honest and reverse it | Simon Jenkins
With British industry faltering, the excuse that the public wants this is risible. Parliament must force Starmer to act, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins
"The need is urgent for some coalition of politicians to take the lead and state baldly that Brexit was an error."
"The public is clearly ready to see Brexit reversed. There cannot be a single industry that would oppose it. The need is for leadership."

National security threatened by climate crisis, UK intelligence chiefs due to warn
Report by joint intelligence committee delayed, with concerns expressed that it may not be published
The climate emergency is so bad that Labour are hiding the truth. Keir Starmer needs to think about what is going to happen once people realise that theyβre being lied to just so that the rich can get richer at the expense of billions of lives.
