In the UK, the main media focus has been on the former Prince Andrew and the ex-Ambassador to the US, Lord Mandelson. Had some resignations but that's it so far.

Some people looking at the likes of Bannon and whether he funded election interference (Brexit) or dark russian money.

So basically, Tech Bros have not moved on since Weird Science is the vibes I'm getting from this.

That's a beast. Yeah, pretty much all shocks these days (forks and rear) have a switch on them so you can adjust them from open to locked out on the fly.

It's a loyalty test. They know right from wrong yet still chose wrong to stay in the cult.

Create massive wealth? For the oligarchs maybe, not so much for ordinary Russians I suspect.

Well dear reader, that didn't quite happen. The run in is going to be a bit squeaky bum for the teams looking at the other 3 play off spots. Barf looking home and hosed currently with their cushion.

Definitely one (of many) reasons that not really happy that they were given the NHS contract for the federated data system.

I totally get that the NHS data between GP's, Trusts and other parties needed a good sort out but they would definitely not be my first choice vendor.

Or the Football World Cup next year. Who wants to come to the country to support their national team and run the gauntlet of border control/immigration and end up disappeared in a SuperMax in a unspecified location.

Nope. Hard pass.

Having been part of a core banking migration that was planned for 2 years duration and ended up taking 5, I dread to think how bad this could end up being and that's before adding in vibe coding to the mix.

Having been part of a migration of a core banking system from mainframe across to SAP, them trying to do their migration for a larger customer base in months is optimistic in the extreme.

Pretty much confirming what us this side of the pond had read into the messaging during the Trump electioneering and the last couple of months - "America First" = "America Alone".

They're pulling up the drawbridge.
