Jeepers. Can't believe it needs pointing out but no, a few faraway balls of rock and/or gas have no influence over any of that.

Where was Farage’s closest aide and Reform UK Welsh leader Nathan Gill heading when he was arrested for taking bribes from Putin’s pal Medvedchuk?

To a Kremlin sponsored conference in Moscow, to talk about the role of crypto currencies in politics

The warnings are there for us all to see

Does this new era of luck and clarity, free of chaos mean anything in terms of climate change, war, global instability, and so on?
Or is it a vaguer, generally undefinable type of chaos-less luck and clarity?

It's astonishing he can recall so much detail about the time he did his O levels, where he went, what he ate, etc, but can't recall a single thing about the 60 or so accusations of his racism and bullying around the same time.

In reality, it's retrospective confirmation bias. A ball of very hot rock far away from us has precisely nothing to do with someone's mood on a given day.

Ok,fair enough. But I confess I am unworthily enjoying reading article after article discussing the potential relegation…

I'm not persuaded that yet more damage and civilian deaths will improve matters. Glad we could resolve the 'people are being threatened with prison time' thing, though.

Cool, that makes killing more Iranians ok then. Was that what you meant?

Except, of course, it's been reported on in multiple news outlets, complete with videos and pictures:

I'm not very good at this social media thing. This evening I made what was by any measure, a frankly amazing chicken pie, with little heart-shaped pastry decorations on top. My family wolfed it down. I took exactly zero pictures of it.

As an Arsenal fan (who isn't getting cocky yet thanks to decades of bitter experience), I'm torn - could I be content being beaten into 2nd place - if Spurs got relegated?

It’s as if racists often have a whole raft of other objectionable personality traits too. πŸ€”

Can you tell us more about this unstable energy? For example, how exactly does it manifest itself? How can we measure it?

You’re welcome. Oh, I almost forgot - the lunar eclipse isn’t visible in Europe or Africa, so I suppose that means that internet providers there will just have to reschedule their upgrades for another time. Ta-ra!

Yet users of other internet providers will not be affected, not everyone using the same one as you will have the same star sign etc - and balls of rock in space are not involved with network outages and upgrades in your city.

For goodness' sake... So stupid and reckless.
If he wanted to placate Trump, he should have just done what FIFA did and given him some kind of shiny trinket with an illustrious-sounding title. This is insanity.

I'm mostly more positive than negative about you, Mr Khan - but as a paramedic familiar with the challenges involved with navigating the West End (and surrounding area) of London, I'd be grateful to know what provisions have been made for emergency vehicle access under this scheme.

I'll be completely honest - I like all of those individual ingredients, and combinations of some of them. But I can't see myself recreating that recipe..

Do you just lob all the ingredients in the muffin tin?
