Brexitism is like Communism in the sense that: It infects every corner of our lives. Most people now hate it. No-one, even our leaders, really believes in it. It keeps causing misery and immiseration. And yet there is no realistic prospect of escaping it any time soon.

I would be really grateful if The Guardian The Observer & TED Talks made a comment on this ruling. Any comment. It has huge ramifications for UK journalism. And some basic solidarity from the organisations who published the work would go a long way. Thank you.

Qu: would Sir Bonar Neville-K even be allowed to speak at one of his own HMG events nowadays? Is there a hashtag for this madness btw?

Please retweet if you want Keir Starmer to be honest about Brexit.

I thought Berlusconi's plastic surgeon described him as "technically immortal"? About time the Grim Reaper made a start on the populists...

The letter you receive from the palace when you are offered an honour says recipients are expected to be role models and ‘should be aware that membership can be forfeited for a variety of reasons, including criminal conviction and bringing the honours system into disrepute.’

Fellow residents of the UK: If you always wondered what you might have done in 1920s-1930s Europe to fight the rise of authoritarian states.... look at what you are doing right now. That's your answer.

Interesting talk at Fairfield House_Bath 8 July. Turns out I have some (ancestral) skin in this game...

But here he is. Expressing the polar opposite worldview several times a week in the country’s best selling paper. Along with the entire government, the Telegraph, the Express, the Spectator, GBeebies, the Sun & the rest of Murdoch’s empire. It’s kind of lonely on the other side!

Well, that's it. Goodbye folks. mastodon.social/@WilliamHeath

Brief return to the dismal remains of the Twitter platform to commend the new Fairfield House newsletter, on the more attractive (tho not without its issues) Substack platform fairfieldhouse.substack.com Do sign up, follow, comment, bring civilised discourse...

Also, while I'm here, to commend Fairfield House's new LinkedIn page. linkedin.com/company/fairfi… It's almost boring how LinkedIn gets remorselessly better.
