As beautiful as this kind of thinking is in a way, it's good to remember that Charlie Kirk despised Ukrainians and did everything he could to weaken Ukraine's ability to defend itself by spreading russian propaganda in USA.

New @IMechE report examines the different technology options for decarbonising aerospace. The short answer? It's likely there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Presented as a 'green paper', we invite feedback and will be running workshops on the topic over the coming year.

The first handwritten letter from a Prime Minister to a departing minister I can remember. A significant, personal touch.

Didn't expect to see Gary Neville @GNev2 at Zurich Airport. Definitely not smiling from ear to ear.

Can't access the article on my phone but that's literally impossible. You might get close if the oil price reaches 10 million dollars a barrel.

Depends on context. A family putting an English flag on their house during the World Cup is harmless patriotism. Far right activists putting a flag on every lamppost in town is an act of intimidation. (It's also a good way to lower house prices.)

If you dislike people flying English or British flags in England then YOU are the problem.

There are two bad things about living in London. 1) There are too many people and not enough houses. 2) Just about everything closes at 11pm. Crime is not significantly higher than most big cities in the western world. Been here a decade and I feel safe everywhere I go.

The discourse around London has split into two camps of either “you cannot leave the house or they will murder you and steal your organs” and “I’ve lived here for 400 years and literally never even heard anyone swear”.

The life expectancy of someone hit with 2,250 millisieverts of radiation in Hiroshima or Nagasaki was longer than the average Briton or American born in the same year. Today in Britain we spend billions controlling radiation levels more than 100,000 times smaller than this.

It is 2025. Lionesses in the Euros finals. Oasis playing historic gigs at Wembley. People smiling on public transport. Bins collected on time. It's not *too* hot. We haven't had it this good since the Queen parachuted into the Olympics. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE. #Lionesses #oasis
