Americans aren't ready to hear this but Europe is the real & true consumer paradise.
Having that $$$ money to throw around is less than useless if the only thing to spend it on are luxury trim Ford F150 pickups, premier passes to Disney World, and $8.99 Liquid Death premium canned water at Whole Foods.

Meanwhile our government is going to push for stronger defence ties with EU, obscuring the real challenges and making it more difficult to get the fundamentals right.
The USA is engaged in great power competition with China. Europe faces a Russian threat. In order to see off those dangers, Britain and Europe need national cohesion, industrial capability, and reliable energy. Our political class are currently failing on all three.

In which my lovely wife discusses how she became the Genghis Khan of the Black Forest.
😲 Für unsere Vorfahren war eine große Familie die Regel. Umso verwunderlicher, wie mich neulich, als ich im siebten Monat schwanger war, unsere Nachbarin ansprach und fast ungläubig rief: „Was, ihr bekommt noch ein Kind?“ ✍️ Von @e_dampier

Very interesting. There are deep cultural roots when it comes to violence. So we should expect - and indeed often seen - violence following immigrants from more violent countries who come here.
New paper in PNAS: Your homicide risk follows you around the country. If you’re born in the historically violent Wild West, Appalachian Highlands, or Deep South, a higher risk of violent death trails you wherever you go. 🧵1/13

An excellent piece by @MigObs on problems with data around immigration and what is needed. Whatever your view on the issue, more data helps us to be better informed.

This report identifies gaps in data about migration that prevent policymakers and the public from understanding its impacts and the implications of policy changes.

.@Prosperity_Inst had the honour of hosting the @UnderSecPD to share her concerns about the Online Safety Act. It’s wonderful to work with our allies across the pond on our shared values and shared commitment to preserve them. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Great interview with @GBNews about public diplomacy priorities, America’s 250th birthday, and — of course — the Online Safety Act. As I told @christopherhope, protecting children is a critical goal. But that means empowering parents, not censors — especially when “hate speech”

Onward Christian soldiers 💰🔫🙏 A rare piece of common sense from the CofE. Though if they really want to benefit from Defence they need to drop ESG in its entirety or the ban will continue by stealth.
The Church Commissioners are now able to invest in defence companies in certain countries, after a policy change announced this week #churchcommissioners #churchfinances #churchofengland #defence #ethicalinvestment

Nightmarish HR-ification of democracy. Vetting should be the purview of either parties or the electorate
EXC: Parliamentary candidates could be barred from standing if they do not pass an enhanced DBS check which flags criminal records to employers, under a new plan put forward by MPs. https://t.co/34eAonOQEl
