Yes, but the only US targets they have are ones that the US chooses to locate within range.

I seem to recall Bill Hicks pointing out, in relation to an earlier US excursion, that "a war is when you have TWO armies fighting".
What we are witnessing here is merely target practice.

Not many hosts get to choose their parasites.

One of the many annoying things about this development, is that I have a number of pairs of RayBans. Will I now be challenged for wearing them? Was the Meta contract worth it for the brand damage?

Good, and thank you.

Trump likes a medal. Could we persuade you to strike one to recognise his ongoing contributions to EU unity?

Hint for headline writers: if you have to tell us that they were once "senior figures" it might just possibly not be much of a story.
I don't doubt they will fit right in.

Only eight days to go! Meanwhile, there’s been a lovely review in @prospectmagazine.co.uk www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/culture/book...

True, though some such as Ofcom have considerable resources that they deploy to little effect. There are other reasons why “independent” regulation performs so poorly in the UK. For instance, does Govt appoint the right people and genuinely encourage them to be robust?

I know what you mean and agree, but equally only around 3% of world population would ever migrate. Vast majority prefer to stay close to where they were born. Which also underlines how exaggerated are the fears, as long as we work harder on avoiding the shocks that cause forced migration.

I hesitate to challenge Trump on his knowledge of escorts.

Well, Churchill is often misquoted on this, but his preference was "jaw jaw rather than war war".
So, closer to Starmer than Trump.

Exceptional day for @lawforchange.uk: successful outcomes in 3 very distinct cases we funded, involving overturning a refusal of legal aid, quashing a licence for disposal at sea of toxic dredged material and obtaining permission to challenge the Home Office “family reunion” policy for refugees.

I have already contacted Social Services.

Could we persuade Candy to post his grid reference?

Would anyone like to name a single UK regulator currently doing a good job and putting citizens first?

Has she looked up “vindicated”?

Though, being Proust, not as pithy as one might wish for.

Probably not real but I’d like to see HMRC run a UK equivalent at our airports.

This makes sense to me. US has put Europe in an impossible position. How to protect vital interests without appearing to endorse US and Israel aggression?
