🇨🇦 Canada has given BIGGEST SHOCK to Trump 🔥 Canada doesn’t trust the U.S. anymore after Trump talked about taking Greenland and annexing Canada. So now they’re teaming up on Arctic defense with the Nordics. Ottawa’s working closer with Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, and Iceland. They’re also helping Greenland set up its own ranger force, just like Canada’s Arctic Rangers. Basically, Canada’s quietly ditching Trump.🔥

Farm House and Field, Eric Ravilious, 1941. It depicts Ironbridge Farm, at Shalford in #Essex. The original artwork is in a private collection.

Concluding our Bow themed week, here's "Coborn Street, Bow" by Harold Steggles from 1931. The evening art classes were sometimes held at Coborn Street School & Harold took his view from the school yard. The view is pretty much the same nowadays. #HaroldSteggles #EastLondonGroup

This was the moment when I suddenly abstracted myself totally from the interview, & found myself thinking, "OMG, it's really true, I'm sat here in Abbey Road, sitting opposite Paul McCartney, & hearing him talk about Beatles songs". x.com/TheRestHistory…

@LloydsBank Please read the BBC article that was linked to my original tweet

Clearly @LloydsBank has little regard for its customers 😔 share.google/NgWc83IpilwkdC…

The @QburyTunnel Society has done an excellent job campaigning to restore the tunnel and enable people to use it as a cycling, walking and wheeling route. Grant Shapps’ intervention in 2020 should have been the end of it, but still the issue goes on... transportactionnetwork.org.uk/the-fight-for-…

This is Lord Rothermere the owner of the Daily Mail. He lives in a massive mansion in the English countryside, but he pays no tax here because he identifies as French. While the Daily Mail is registered in Bermuda and pays no tax anywhere. That is his ‘Patriotism’.

As a fellow ex-economics editor of BBC Newsnight happy to join Paul on the call explaining why bond markets ‘ do not fall into line’. This is deep and dangerous economic illiteracy.

Keeping time for over 500 years!!! I only saw this medieval scratch sundial on my local church for the first time yesterday, despite living in the village for over 25 years. High up on the S Tower, it surely dates to the mid C15 and the building improvements of Bishop Carpenter.

I’ve never before been as worried about the BBC’s news reporting. The last government’s efforts to capture it are bearing fruit. It’s intent on discrediting any Labour government, be it Starmer’s or a successor’s. The refusal to investigate Farage’s £5m is otherwise inexplicable.

We've published the third of our one-page briefing sheets, this time looking at the benefits that would be accrued from Queensbury Tunnel being repurposed as the centrepiece of "an iconic and nationally significant" active travel network.

"Water companies suffer a shortage of responsibility." The Times @thetimes hits the nail straight on the head. Until we hold water company directors and executives personally and directly responsible nothing is going to change. Time some of these people went to jail. The law already allows for it, how come it's never happened? Environment Agency, got an answer? thetimes.com/comment/the-ti…

There’s something rotten in the state of the BBC’s political reporting. And unless it’s fixed soon, they will bring the catastrophe of Trump to the UK.

Some seriously good news on a day which is otherwise not looking terribly cheering.

Starmer and Reeves are not kidding when they say this political uncertainty causes economic damage. The only “reset” being achieved at the moment is higher borrowing costs. Result? We’re all worse off. So deeply depressing.

All Labour MPs should be looking at this very carefully. Potential leadership contenders who reckon that more borrowing and/or (even more) growth unfriendly policies on tax, spend and regulation are the way forward should reflect on it even more carefully.
