New data shows #Brexit has lowered UK GDP by 6-8% over the past decade. Investment down 12-18%, employment down 3-4%. It's even worse than economists had predicted pre-referendum, because they thought there would be a bounce-back long term. "Economists were roughly right on the
Carney's incredible secret sauce seems to be - say what the problem is, whose fault it is, what you will have to do about it and what it will cost.
“If Donald Trump’s capriciousness inspires deep anxiety among Europeans, they are also troubled by another uncomfortable idea: a scratchy sense that perhaps France was right after all”
Europeans confront the unthinkable 😉

UK: Prince Andrew arrested.
South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life.
Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence.
USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.
"A música era muito melhor quando deixavam gente feia cantar" foi uma frase que me pegou desprevenido
Semafor: Guinea worm neared global eradication, with just 10 cases reported worldwide in 2025, all of them in Chad, Ethiopia, or South Sudan. When former US President Jimmy Carter founded an eradication program in the mid-1980s, there were millions of infections in developing countries and the only human disease that had ever previously been permanently defeated was smallpox. The parasitic infection, transmitted via contaminated water, leads to three-foot worms emerging from painful leg ulcers, and causes long-term incapacitation and disability. While Carter did not, as he hoped, outlive the last Guinea worm (he died in 2024), he may have come close; the 10 cases mark a 33% decrease year-on-year.
Only 10 cases of Guinea worm disease were recorded *globally* last year.
It may become the second human disease we eradicate, after smallpox.
Autocratic backfire: when dictators construct echo chambers, overestimate their abilities, and dismiss their adversaries’ capabilities, leading to weakening or ruin. Examples: Mussolini, Putin, and now (hopefully) Trump. [nytimes.com]
Great work from the FT's John Burn-Murdoch www.ft.com/content/b474...

The stunning new Metro station at Villejuif-Gustave Roussy, which opened in 2025, is part of the biggest expansion of the city’s network for half a century

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there
Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.”
Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.
hoje soubemos que o ministro Edson Fachin está analisando sugestões para instituir um código de conduta dos ministros. Quem sabe ele olha o sistema de transparência do Judiciário dos EUA. Um juiz da Suprema Corte deve declarar até as instituições bancárias onde tem dinheiro e +

I have an update on Greenland.
🇪🇺 Should the EU Federalize or Dissolve? 🇮🇹❓
A recent 2026 opinion poll asked Italians what the future of the EU should be.
🔹 61% support transforming the EU into a federal union
🔹 4% want to keep the EU as it is
🔹 27% support dissolving the EU altogether
🤔 What do you think?
One thing authoritarian regimes do is establish impunity for government officials who break the law on their behalf
Everyone freezing on the East Coast or in the Midwest remember: Kyiv has the same weather, except that hundreds of thousands of people don't have electricity, heating or running water
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Europe needs to get much more comfortable threatening Trump with serious deterrent measures, and if necessary implementing them. Tariffs, taxes & bans on US firms; selloffs of US Treasuries; expulsions of American troops; sanctions on individuals. Speak his language: strength.
Zohran is singlehandedly killing left-NIMBYism we love to see it
Even if Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro somehow led to a positive impact on Venezuela’s future, it would not make these actions by the United States legal, moral or wise.
Normalising and legitimising this behaviour endangers all countries - democracies and dictatorships alike.
Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
it’s that simple
E vice-versa
Quem reclamou de uma tem que reclamar da outra
If you got $1 million, you can pretty much commit any crime you want and Trump will pardon you. I would recommend Pam Bondi’s brother for representation. He seems to get the best results, for some reason.
It has been 395 days of continuous demonstrations in Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi. Our citizens demand the resignation of Georgia's mostly illegitimate and pro-Russian government, the release of political prisoners, and the return to a pro-European course.
In 2026, Europeans will have to make a choice.
Do they want to live as dependents in vassal states of America and Russia, or do they want to be independent in a federation?
Federalism is the only way for Europe to be sovereign.
