Any sense that Laura Trott might be a candidate?
The thing that strikes me about Brussels compared to the other places I've been posted is how much the individual expat nationalities group together.
You've not been having a dabble again have you?
He's able to park his ego in a way I've never seen from a senior politician
I can't work out if this is a KES story I've never heard (despite being an old boy) or you're referring to Strat High ?!?
You should try a sandwich. Much better and quicker too
Still it's only Thursday!
A lot of parents are looking at that wondering if their kid has a burner YT account
This may look like a child's drawing of warships, but in fact it is a SECRET 1955 CIA HUMINT report on Soviet naval vessels in the Baltic.
PSL thread analysing a forgotten report to show value of Cold War HUMINT sources for analysis and intelligence.
Like the Marilyn Manson rumour, I think this is one that managed to go right around the world..
Deeply annoying when media types tweet out 'this could have been an email' and 'what was the point of that'. Grow up or get a new job
