Incredible story. And it shows what Ukraine can do when it controls the technology. Relying on satellite imagery from partners is often too slow and restricted. Crazy that this was crowd-funded. https://t.co/VgZHdIHABA

It's crazy how many mainstream journalists are apparently perfectly fine with the mass disclosure of the medical records of vulnerable people; which is just one of the things Julian Assange and Wikileaks did, unapologetically.

Are we on track for the most distorted UK election result ever?

On the latest Political Fix pod, @jburnmurdoch joins @robertshrimsley, @georgewparker and me to discuss forecasts that 'first past the post' will produce the worst-ever mismatch between votes won and seats won at this poll

Plus we hark back to 2019 to examine when the seeds of the expected Tory collapse were first sown

“It’s the first time in Latin America that, as a result of climate change, a whole community has been moved to a new place. The eyes of the world are on Gardi Sugdub,” says Panama’s housing minister https://t.co/7MiKI9lBgw 👇

If there were an economists' party, it'd campaign for: land value tax; liberal migration; opposition to nimbys; tax rises to release resources for public spending; basic income; & borrowing for infrastructure spending. And it would be marginalized by the media & get v.few votes.

I spoke to @NickFerrariLBC about the Greek coast guard throwing people overboard to drown.

These depraved acts don’t come from nowhere.

Dehumanisation leads us to inhuman acts. And I’m scared we’re on the same path.

Labour's new animal welfare policy has 9 pledges ... but not one to protect farm animals.

It's a huge omission: farm animals are >95% of UK animals directly affected by humans.

"The biggest boost in animal welfare in a generation" has to include them.

[Iron Economist @IronEconomist]

We need to start jailing people for this. This is fraud that resulted in the mis allocation of huge sums of public money globally. The authors need to be jailed.

[Svante Myrick @SvanteMyrick]

Not a joke here. These two are enormously influential, and they are saying out loud what Project 2025 has already written down. Alarm bells should be ringing around the country. This is it.

Humble to the end. God bless Rob Burrow 💕💕

This is a pretty interesting feature of listening to @GurusPod -- all these blokes who are like "everyone is lying to you nothing can be trusted... except my buddy Dave, joining us here on my podcast! But first a word from our sponsors, BrainMakeGoodPills" Just... huh.

The Russian embassy in South Africa has posted a fake video of State Dept spokesperson Matthew Miller telling a reporter that Belgorod has no civilians.

The video contains two edited clips from separate briefings on 9 and 28 May, with fake, AI-generated audio overlaid on top.

This is *such* an important point.

Baumol’s cost “disease” cuts two ways. It’s annoying for businesses / employers because it raises their costs per unit of output.
But it’s great for most workers / people, because it shares the gains of productivity growth across the economy
