- Anne Applebaum:

"Steve Witkoff has no experience with Russia or diplomacy. I fear he imagines a US-Russia pact where he, his son, Trump's family or their circle benefit personally.

It's disturbing that American foreign policy conducted not for the US, allies or world peace, but for private interests.

Putin knows Trump is vulnerable to such deals ... that's why he keeps suggesting them.

Witkoff and Trump's entourage behave like Russians: capture the state, use it for personal wealth."...

Remembering Greg Lake, born on this day, November 10, 1947, in Poole, Dorset, England. He would have turned 79 today.

Greg grew up in Poole and took guitar lessons as a boy alongside his friend Robert Fripp, studying with the same local teacher. Years later Fripp brought him into a new band called King Crimson, and Greg sang and played bass on their 1969 debut, In the Court of the Crimson King, one of the records that launched progressive rock.

In 1970 he left to form Emerson, Lake & Palmer with Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer. Their very first album included "Lucky Man," a song Greg had written when he was 12, and its Moog solo became one of the most famous sounds of the decade.

ELP filled arenas through the 70s, and Greg's voice was the calm center of all that firepower.

We lost Greg on December 7, 2016, at 69, after a long illness. Keith Emerson had died earlier that same year.

🎸 Tell us your story: where were you the first time you heard Greg Lake sing "Lucky Man" or "From the Beginning"? 🎸

[🇬🇧King 🇬🇧 @King0243_PJC]

Helen Whately on #BBCBreakfast calmly selling Tory plans to cut £2.8bn from Child Disability Living Allowance, targeting kids with special needs, ADHD, autism, learning difficulties and what they dismiss as “low-level” issues.

The same MP who claimed up to £39,000 a year in taxpayer-funded London rent (while living in a substantial home in Kent) and takes a large salary + expenses.

These children didn’t choose their disabilities. Their families didn’t ask for this fight.

This is disgusting and wickedness!

@DPDCare your staff are so rude. I asked for an image to be sent me of the attempted delivery and they said they couldn’t then hung up. Appalling.

How TF is this still happening?!

10 years on from that bloody Brexit vote, and a senior Reform leader thinks we can go and do our own trade deals with EU countries! 🤯🤯🤯

We can't.

We never could.

Trade with any of them = a deal with all 27

…and this lot want to run the country.

CARL SAGAN — born 92yrs ago today — on Libraries:

"We are the only species on the planet, so far as we know, to have invented a communal memory. The warehouse of that memory is called a library."

For The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966), Ennio Morricone gave each of the three central characters a musical identity: a flute for Blondie, an ocarina for Angel Eyes, and human voices for Tuco.

An extraordinary example of how music can tell a story without a single word.

[Baltic Takes @Baltic_Takes]

37 years ago today, East German spokesperson Günter Schabowski did one of the funniest things in history.

At the end of an otherwise dull press conference, he was caught off-guard by a question about when travel restrictions would be lifted for East Germans.

He fumbled through his notes and mistakenly announced that it took immediate effect, scuppering actual plans to slowly ease restrictions through a carefully controlled travel application process.

Crowds quickly descended on confused border guards and forced the implementation of his accidental announcement of free travel immediately for all East Germans.

Coming mere months after the Baltic Way protest, the Berlin Wall had now fallen and people power was overwhelming the collapsing Soviet empire.

As @andyburnham re-opens dialogue with the European Union, let's remember what one of the arch-Brexiters used to believe before he sold his soul for a shot to become Prime Minister:

Boris Johnson (2003), “If we didn’t have a European Community be in no doubt we would invent something like it, we would invent a means of association between the sovereign states of Europe overnight”

And look carefully, he recognises that Britain was a sovereign nation as a member of the EU - imagine that!

- Sheffield United and Ligue 1 side Toulouse are also interested

- He has started all 14 of Lyngby's league games this season, scoring once
- He has two goals and two assists in 28 games for the Danish club
