10 futuristic predictions from this talk that came true:

1. Every major revolution starts ugly

[Michael Spicer @MrMichaelSpicer]

it's real support from actual racists

[The Figen @TheFigen_]

This is so well articulated ‼️ It’s a class war‼️
Working class Americans need to unite and fight‼️

I was just on the Easyjet EZY8084 from Palma to Gatwick. Once we got on board we got an air traffic delay. The captain came out and explained the situation and invited anyone with children who wanted to use the 45 minutes delay to come and visit the cockpit. Once we took off there was medical emergency which meant half the cabin were occupied dealing with the situation. The remaining crew managed to deal with everyone else with good humour and all the passengers seemed to act with respect and patience. When we landed the captain explained that the medical emergency would be dealt with at the front and asked passengers to disembark through tje rear row by row.
I just wanted to say this was the perfect example of how to manage a situation and I wanted to congratulate the captain and the crew because it could not have been handled better.

@legalstyleblog A Caribbean country used to send their officers to be trained at Sandhurst but one day the MoD/HMT decided to charge them for that (we are talking c. 100k per annum). So China now trains officers for that country

HMT - knows the price of everything and the value of nothing

2 years ago MSNBC predicted that @elonmusk’s Twitter was "on the brink of collapse"

Today X is the number 1 app & Elon saved free speech.

And MSNBC is on the brink of collapse

The night before the 2020 election, Tracy Chapman said: “This is the most important election of our lifetime. It is imperative that everyone vote to restore our democracy.” And then she went on Seth Meyers and dropped this: https://t.co/TTytsRQzSd

@FredPLogue @johnnyryan @ICCLtweet And the key issue lost on too many is - without enforcement any law (inc EU Regulations ) is rendered pointless …

@FredPLogue @johnnyryan @ICCLtweet Quite- given it is a common law jurisdiction

I just got what's app messages that I honestly thought were from my daughter until it asked for a photo of my card back and front. I was busy at work or would have spotted a few red flags. Research was done as they used mam which is what my kids call me.

7/8 NATO's place in this story is keenly contested. What's certain is that Putin has repeatedly railed against NATO's expansion in Eastern Europe. And NATO is central to the West's response to Putin. Here's how. (Posted on Feb 11 - before the invasion.)
