US Escalation in the Caribbean and Latin America - Live Updates As the Trump administration intervenes more directly in hemispheric affairs, CEPR will be closely following developments throughout Latin America and the Caribbean — and here in Washington.

An important consideration in the midst of Trump's recklessness:

I'm sure they do - and they DON'T even knock or ring when they do manage to deliver: just leave the package on the doorstep in full view of passers-by. If you're out, or not psychic, bad luck.

Here, too. It is, of course, a re-brand of the disgraced 'Hermes', but still hires drivers the other carriers seem to reject. I've BEGGED suppliers not to use them after load one was damaged at hub: they still used them, and the re-delivery could not be made despite it being an urgent replacement 😡

Yes, The Telegraph: that well-known espouser of right-wing, free-market capitalism ... except when the best-placed buyers of its own shoddy little title happen to have brown faces ... that Telegraph? I have the oddest feeling that Editgate might yet rebound in its pink, scrubbed face?

Sailed through!! Now we'll see which MPs listen.

It's the old Brian v Jesus all over again. AT LEAST PADS DIDN'T DO BIRD!?!?! Unlike some .....

....... maybe 😬

....... I mean, possibly 😬

Thank you so bloody much, Muggeridge Lite 🤬

Petition: Limit the sale of fireworks to those running local council approved events only Ban the sale of fireworks to the general public to minimise the harm caused to vulnerable people and animals. Defenceless animals can die from the distress caused by fireworks. I believe that permitt...

If anyone else is very upset by the unrelenting fireworks that seem to have become the norm, you can sign this petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Absolutely. Just 17k more to sign before debating it in parliament.

It is! This is a fine set with terrific sound (thus far): I've opted for the Apple lossless version, while the 320 mp3 comes in at around 2.5 minutes per penny!! And what music!

Interesting to consider it. One snag might be the active verb, 'To tax' someone, or passive 'To be taxed' - any alternatives? ('To contribute' is already taken) 🤔

Never in the field of human retribution has a deserved, reciprocal tariff been so simply presented to a prime minister to apply. Never in the field of Labour leadership has a head been plunged so firmly in the sand.

100%.

@deeplyclassical.bsky.social You may very well own one incarnation of this, but I do think this special offer is something of an absolute bargain from Presto. Interested parties can find it easily: it does take some time to download, especially if one of the 'posh frock' file formats! c. 9 GB.

Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how

Fuck off Elno you cunt.
We know who you’re siphoning money into from your rancid purse strings, and we know why.
I hope the British secret service keep a close eye on this one. He’s an enemy of the state.

Terrific little exposé, rather empirical and excluding all traces of emotive language or intent. More of this, please, Mr Sky ... 👏👏

Sympathies from a fellow sufferer. One more thing that does help me is the wheat-bag heated up in the microwave and draped over. Cheap, too 👍

😂😂😂👏

Magnificent strike!!

Ten of the worst Tory tax hikes since 2010 It’s Budget day today. With the tax burden predicted to amount to 37 per cent of national income by the next election, the 2019 to 2024 parliament is set to go down as the biggest tax-raising parliame...

Frankly, if one's core expenditure can't be met adequately, then it's irresponsible not to seek further revenue in order to do so. I'll take no lectures in taxation from Conservatives and their 1,000 tax rises from 2010+

Express rapped by IPSO over inaccurate headlines nine times in 2025 so far IPSO finds the Express website to have published "significantly" inaccurate or misleading headlines six times in the past three months.

The Daily Express has been fined 'nine times' so far this year by IPSO over inaccurate headlines but you would never know it.
When will the UK press be properly punished for deliberately publishing disinformation? #IPSOfail

The one thing Fox can't claim is 'I didn't realise' - he kept pouring fuel on the fire he felt he was stirring. His claims were monstrous and the original award entirely in keeping with the outrage and vindictiveness he caused. He needs to pay up NOW and. go. away.

It is gorgeous - not a breath of wind! Enjoy your walklingtons!

They were a bloody awful, unsafe, fibreglass design and he's only gobbing off because he thinks we've all forgotten. Obviously, being ordered to shut his gob by the party owner only works for so long.

Holeh Jebus .... it's Noddy 😲

Well, that's a fact and no bones about it ☺️

The Daily Heil's last three targets: Angela Rayner, Jess Phillips and Rachel Reeves. Spot the connection ... (next target: Shabana Mahmood)

I'd like it to be known that I, too, extend warm feeling toward our Chinese friends and will happily report on traffic calming plans in Cheshire and beyond?

I think I'd be aggressive to humans who do this fucking stuff, too, as either an ape or a naked ape.
