I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The surest way to avoid the violent disintegration of the United States is through federalism. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/to-make-america-less-divided-give-washington-less-power

RT @lesiavasylenko: Boris Johnson addressing Ukrainian parliament today. I have never seen this many standing ovations for a single speech. #Ukraine is certainly lucky to have a friend like the #UK

#OTD 1979, Margaret Thatcher inherited a fractious, bankrupt, declining country. Eleven years later, she left it prosperous, confident and free.

This is the best take on the Flashman series you'll read.

Quite something to hear @Keir_Starmer, who opposed every loosening of the lockdown, complain to @BBCr4today about “low growth” and “the cost of living crisis”. What does he think caused them?

I envy the certainty of the absolutists on both sides of the abortion debate. I find it a difficult and delicate issue. About the only thing I can say with certainty is that, precisely for that reason, it should be decided by accountable representatives, not judges. #RoeVsWade

RT @visegrad24: German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says that he won’t visit Zelensky in Kyiv because Ukraine didn’t allow the German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier to go there a few weeks ago.
Just go there & bring some heavy weapons with you Mr Scholz.
Don’t play hurt.

RT @danielmgmoylan: @DanielJHannan @GeorgeTrefgarne I imagine she’d be rightly horrified if her cleaner, hairdresser, barista, Uber driver, pizza delivery guy or restaurant waiter all claimed the same middle-class indulgence.

He’s still doing it. I don’t blame Angela Rayner. She made a jokey comment which was then reported without context. Of course she’s cross. But for Starmer still to be blaming sexist Tories *when he knows that the source of those comments was his own deputy* is beyond dishonest.
RT @SkyNews: "This is rank sexism, rank misogyny and Angela shouldn't have to put up with it."

In other words, nearly a full year after the lifting of all relevant Covid restrictions, government agencies are competing against each other on how little time you need to spend at work. 2/2

The head of one of our state agencies tells me about a former employee who applied to work for another quango. Her new contract specified two days a week in the office. When she objected that she had worked only one day at her old agency, the contract was revised accordingly. 1/2

Looking at what has happened to people's numbers since @elonmusk's bid went ahead, I'm starting to think that the Leftiness of Twitter owed a great deal to its algorithms - algorithms that now seem to have been hastily junked in anticipation of a new boss.
