Is 'The West' at war with Russia? Ask two questions: Has The West firmly stated that it is politically opposed to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and wishes to see it fail? Is it in the interest of future West European security to see Russia be defeated in Ukraine? 1/11
The good that *might* come of this is if it is properly and robustly defended and so important issues will be thrust into the spotlight.
The CPS have appealed Hamit Coskun’s successful appeal. They *really* want a British blasphemy law.
Agree. That is the nub. Any deal has to both stick and not prevent Ukraine from further improving its ability to deter Russia. But the wailing and gnashing of teeth over the last 48 hours is tiresome. This war is going to end around the table, not on the battlefield.
Worth rehearsing: all of that is underpinned by the enduring substance of the security guarantee.
‘Ukraine…gets absolutely zero’. Apart from: retaining its sovereignty and democracy, 80% of its territory, an army of 500k, EU membership, reconstruction aid, no de jure recognition of the occupied territories, return of POWs and children, and US-led security guarantees (all…
I’m interested in the assumption that if Ukraine starts losing cities, US public reaction will be ‘go Russia’. It won’t. Trump’s pro-Putin hand is weaker than it seems.
If @ZelenskyyUa does not agree to the US proposal, the US could pull out of the PURL program—by which Europe buys US weapons and sends them to Ukraine—and stop intelligence sharing, a senior European official and US official tell me.
There are Fellows in Colleges either side of Oxford High Street who have no idea what happened to teenage girls not far down the Cowley Road and their ignorance will be the first-hand source for scholarly histories of the absurd "moral panic" for years to come.
Remarkable that the US would think it can mediate between Russia and an alliance of which it is a (and the most important) member. Tells you about current US attitudes to NATO. google.com/amp/s/abcnews.…
There is a tension between mass delivery and doing 'sexy' stuff in HMG. I came up against this when directing the UK's recovery programme in Ukraine. The assumption is UK should focus on small 'brainy' things. Yet delivery of lots of boring basic stuff is what is needed.
‘The West’ needs to take a look at itself. So used to parroting memes: “NATO has allies and ‘they’ don’t”, it can’t see that China and other CRINKS are very effectively supporting RUS to see us diminished. Time to see clearly guys!
Trump's ridiculous "deal" with Russia over Ukraine has immediate security implications for the UK - not only must we be prepared to hike our support for UA - we have to plan on the assumption that this could be done to us, or any NATO ally. 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦
This is why it was outrageous of Hallet to dismiss discussion debate about the origin of the virus. Bad actors with virology labs know that they can bring society to its knees and they won't even get blamed. Detection is deterrence.
The Covid Inquiry is a farce. But more than that, it’s dangerous. Because thanks to the report’s frankly laughable conclusions, lockdowns - despite being demonstrably ineffective in controlling Covid - are now de facto UK policy for pandemics. Our enemies know exactly what to do.
A grave mistake. The two embassies are not an equal trade. It underestimates Britain's importance to China in its core objective to drive a wedge between US and Europe. And overestimates our capacity for diplomatic influence in Beijing. There's a reason Xi fought tooth and nail.
Sir Keir Starmer is expected to formally approve a new super-sized Chinese embassy in the heart of London next month after being given the green light by MI5 and MI6 The Times has been told that the Home Office and the Foreign Office will not raise any formal objections to the…
After the anger the concern. Anger: So spending 30 minutes interacting with and socialising one’s children is time wasted, that you can have back for a nap? Concern: This sort of thing is what the ‘Big State Lanyard Class’ really believes - which explains so much else.
What would you do with an extra 30 minutes in your day? 🤔 Free breakfast clubs are transforming mornings for 500,000 children - that's 95 precious hours back each year while children get a nutritious start to their day. Part of our Plan for Change ✨
There is something rotten at the heart of Labour’s China policy. They gift China a mega-embassy running right over vital security cables, they crash a major spy trial letting Chinese traitors go free, they hand over vital islands to a Chinese ally. thetimes.com/article/9b2dcc…
I do remember when posting mild questions about the possible benefits of the Swedish approach getting a bit of a pile-on by return of post.
Alternative reading. We had a plan, worked out in cooler-headed times, which was junked following a hysterical media campaign led by Piers Morgan. Sweden, which stuck to Britain's original plan, emerged with a lower excess death rate - to say nothing of a healthy economy.
And even then, good planners now that all models are wrong - but some are useful. You still need to make decisions in and for the real World.
Inquiries should not rely on models or predictions, they are for planners. Instead chair is gifted actual data and chance to do retrospective analysis. So if there are avoidable deaths (and there are. - from virus, from other causes) then that needs to be demonstrated with data
Serious question for tech-heads: Can anyone explain why @Microsoft ‘Teams’ takes many whole minutes to start up for a call - “We’re getting things ready for you” - and that’s if it decides to start at all, rather than send you to some random chat page? Genuinely confused.
Starmer ‘set to approve controversial super-size Chinese embassy’ despite espionage concerns | To those who asked me. I hate it when I’m on the money. And yet. As predicted. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
Oddly enough, this is the calmest, most logical and most measured response from any UK newspaper.
'Everyone can see lockdown destroyed Britain for a generation. We should have had more of it". Only Official Britain could have come up with this balderdash and spent hundreds of millions of our pounds in the process.
In short, this is the situation in Ukraine right now: 1. The White House is pressuring Zelensky to accept a peace proposal on Moscow’s terms 2. Ukrainian civil society and anti-corruption authorities, in response to the bribery scandal, are demanding that Zelensky fire his…
It’s somehow perfect that the sanest newspaper of 2025 is -
'Everyone can see lockdown destroyed Britain for a generation. We should have had more of it". Only Official Britain could have come up with this balderdash and spent hundreds of millions of our pounds in the process.
