Mayor Mamdani and a child play with Legos while looking very serious and concentrated. The child is impossibly adorable and wearing tiny blue glasses.
No interruptions, please. We’re building universal child care.
Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…
You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.
And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.
& yet the Donald still supports Putin over Zelensky. 😬
It's America's Brexit.
I recall so many "debates" on Titter, where people would tell me that I could still travel around Europe, after Brexit. The conclusion I had to reach was that these people did not really grasp what, "Freedom of Movement" actually meant?!?
Such a good point.

All regular flights at the airports of Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha have been suspended following last week’s attacks. A question now hangs over the region: how long will it take to restore people’s confidence about visiting and travelling through? ft.trib.al/3EjJQyw
This is a life and death story for the UK – so why is it being brushed under the carpet?

Poor him and poor animals 😥
More Trump chaos and disaster 😔 anti-vax and cuts to public health leading to out of control measles.

Hope they find their consciences.
Agree - it made us much more vulnerable to negative forces and ultimately is risking our democracy. The rise of Farage to be a potential PM is a Brexit consequence and terrifying.
Obviously. But it's all so much hot air frankly.
Regulator investigates £8.4bn private dentistry UK market.
Private equity dominates the market - rip-off charges, profiteering, local monopolies.
No body voted for private equity takeover, loss of NHS dentistry.
It happens because Govts favour corporations.

This, from @alanbeattie.bsky.social - and the broader point I've made before - Trump isn't creating the new global order so much as blustering around the emerging one in which China's global economic rise continues www.ft.com/content/8dc2...
& why is this govt still allowing these sorts of donations?
Brexit cut Britain off from its biggest market, and the damage is baked into the economy. Businesses face barriers that did not exist before, and investment has taken a hit. The UK should enter the Single Market and restore frictionless trade.
Europe is the largest single market in the world, and it was an act of self-sabotage to leave the EU. Joining the single market would facilitate easier trade between the UK and the EU, and would remove the red tape that many British businesses are struggling with now.
"Brexit meant Brexit, but 10 years is a long time in politics and the geopolitical landscape has changed beyond recognition. It is time for the UK Government to recognise that the EU is its closest ally and its strongest partner. Progress has been too slow. The EU–UK reset must now be supercharged.”
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
All very impressive. The opposite of how he operates domestically. It's almost as though he needs a co-PM to run the domestic side.
Downing Street has shared a behind the scenes video of the PM responding to the Iran strikes in recent days.
Includes snippets from his calls with the French president, German chancellor, and Cypriot president
