“Dear Don, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin', I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom. I visited Mar-Lago, you must not've known I was there.”

That’s not strictly true. The issue with a new antibiotic is that its use needs to be as restricted as possible because it is the last resort. To spend $bn to make something no body wants to use is “tricky”. There is a compelling case for a private public partnership.

That was my reaction. I wonder if he was spouting this shite then. If so, spaffer has some explaining to do.

How about engaging with the issue? As others have said there are plenty of judicial systems that don’t rely on juries. Our obsession with adversarial systems be it parliament or criminal justice does not, in my opinion, serve us well.

Murphy: “I think it’s likely the U.S. carried out this attack on this school — I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact that this was one of our 1st targeting decisions, that this mistake was made on the 1st day of war — I think speaks to the incompetence of our leadership”

All convicted by juries. All overturned after spending years in jails. If you think juries are a panacea then think again.

I think their insurers may have a view on that…

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.

They’re rabbits caught in the headlights. To be fair I’m not sure how you differentiate between his thoughts, lies, dementia, cruelty and venality. But then I don’t pretend to be a journalist.

I wonder if he will sue Fox in the same way as he is suing the BBC for misrepresenting what he did/said?

Trump bombs Iran, starves Cubans and kills US service personnel. Business as usual for him.

HOLY SH*T:

Black rain is pouring down on Tehran, Iran following military strikes on their oil facilities last night.

Residents of Tehran are now reporting severe breathing issues.

Is this what "liberating the Iranian people" looks like?

On this International Women’s Day 2026, I wish all the women who were abused and tortured as kids by Epstein and his accomplices to receive peace and Justice. We still need to fight for them. 💜

Adhering to the rule of law is not “middle ground” it’s a fundamental principle.
