A new editorial I wrote for Riviera Ready Magazine: what if Al Capone took the White House?
I also made this short teaser trailer. The horrifying part is how little of it now feels fictional. #alcapone#potus
When we published our Al Capone presidency thought experiment using Analysis and predictions last week, it already felt alarmingly close to reality. Today’s extraordinary Trump–IRS settlement twist makes the comparison still harder to dismiss #trump#irs
@leonagraham Bloody awful ;-) I built my own one out of a stainless steel oil drum and it took a lot of practice... I can show you how it's done next time you're in Brighton, but I'd recommend watching some of this guy's videos https://t.co/O0kfH19NA7
BREAKING: Trump ignorantly attacks NATO:
"If the US was in trouble and we called them... France, do you think they're gonna come and protect us? I'm not so sure."
FACT: France lost 90 Lives and spent tens of billions of dollars fighting for us.
FACT: The US is the only country to ever exercise Article 5. After the 9/11 attacks, NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in its history, declaring that an attack on the United States was an attack on all NATO members. The following NATO member states participated in military operations in Afghanistan under the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and later Operation Resolute Support:

As Buckingham Palace prepares for today's #platinumjubilee celebrations, here's a relevant photo I took a few weeks ago. Editorial from the shoot in the next issue of @britishmusemag @ Buckingham Palace, London https://t.co/cJ0Z5bvLeo
@harrismonkey@BBC_TopGear Great episode, but "Who drew the Lamborghini Miura" is irrelevant, as it looks almost identical to the Ford GT40, which came out two years before. So whoever drew it, just traced the GT40 blueprints! I think your researchers must have had too much mulled wine to miss that one 😉
