Eid Mubarak to Muslims in Nottingham and around the world. May your celebrations be full of joy and blessings! I’m thinking especially of those marking this day under difficult circumstances — through war, displacement and persecution.

Orban built a parallel intellectual universe for Europe. Websites, think-tanks, conferences, a palace in Brussels — all funded by Budapest, all singing the same song. The Economist calls it the Budapest Megaphone. 1/

There’s no reason why Royal Mail must face decline. But getting to a brighter future means decent working terms, not copying Amazon, and respecting a workforce which is the company’s biggest strength. Me in @tribunemagazine tribunemag.co.uk/2026/03/revers…
