This was a great episode. Nesrine Malik is someone worth listening to.

Someone needs to hook this up to the grid. It ought to beat any nuclear power plant for generation under this government.
Almost halfway into this episode.
Among a lot of interesting things Nesrine Malik says on the present political situation, she has some very good political advice for politicians like Starmer and Timmermans, who think being centrists, or palatable to centrists, is the way forward for the left.

Good government is, I think, in a position of trust. Whether you compare that to a parent or teacher, or to the trustee of a charity, the same principle applies. As a trustee they must balance short term wants and needs with long term interests.
While this #UKLabour government is a definite improvement, and certainly less self-serving, I remain unconvinced that they have or can attain that balance. I don't particularly like #RachelReeves and disagree with her on several key policies, but I think she is taking a longer term view than just the next election cycle, which is something I definitely respect. She is the only one I feel able to say that about. #KierStarmer has compromised on too many things, which I'm very disappointed about, but I'm pleased to see him taking a firmer position with #Trump about #Ukraine.

We need #KierStarmer to do this every day until the bully #Trump gets the message. We Brits stand proud with honour, dignity and respect for all except #bullies

Oh shit. Kier Starmer's performance in the white house was just arse licking to get (only) a tech/AI deal with the US.
Not only did he bend the knee to a fascist, he then toured the offices of #Palantir
"The UK has told the US it could become a European hub for American companies’ data centers, outside of EU regulation."
If that happens I'm moving to Europe. But not Ireland, they've already disgraced themselves in that sphere.

#donaldtrump and #JDVance are bullies.
It's so good to see someone standing up for their country and people. Not like our prime minister over here, #KierStarmer bending over backwards to keep up a pally relationship with the #us
It's f******** pathetic who we have representing the #UK
OMG. His bullying, rudeness, and complete lack of decorum really show here.
If you watch the longer conference, the press asked Starmer, not Trump, a question about Canada, and Trump jumped in and started blathering on first.

An old saying goes, "If you're not at the table, you're on the menu". Putin invaded for its mineral deposits.
has offered to defend
in return for 50% of those deposits not now controlled by
. It's not peace, it's a carve-up. For once #KierStarmer is doing the right thing. #Ukraine #peace
@Nonilex he'll come back from his next trip to Washington with a piece of paper. We might as well start calling him Neville already.
At this stage, it’s difficult to imagine how much more wrong this clodhopping bureaucrat could get things, but I’m sure he has a vast reserve of disappointment he will aspire to. #nuclear #politics
