Reminder: EU funding has sustained the Orbán mafia state and enriched his friends and family…. And they just caved in to his extortion and handed him €10.2 billion more. The EU needs to stop funding autocracy
💰Viktor Orbán’s childhood friend, Lőrinc Mészáros, has retaken the title of Hungary’s richest person, according to Forbes Hungary’s new estimate (wealth: €1.6b). 📈Orbán’s son-in-law, István Tiborcz, is rising fast too. His estimated wealth of €200m made him the 27th richest.

This is the skewer that the Brexiters have put themselves (& UK) on: either the Govt accepts UK-only regulations are impractical (-> 'Brexit failed because it wasn't tried') or the Govt implements UK-only regulations (-> 'Brexit failed because it doesn't work').
"Part of leaving the EU was to have our own regulatory regime that was more suited to UK conditions" says David Jones MP. It was. But modern trade means regulations are global, or strongly influenced by the largest player. So what then? Ignore that as inconvenient?
My quote of the day
“The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.” - - Charles Bukowski
(And I’m generally not fussy! Need to find something to write about in the newsletter every week …)
I'm not a criminal lawyer. I'm not familiar with criminal appeal procedures work. My position is simply that 700 postmasters cannot be expected to wait ten more years for their convictions to be referred, one by one, to appeal courts. thetimes.co.uk/article/wrongl…
More Brexit damage. Article also points out seasonal EU workers didn’t want to come because they didn’t feel welcome after Brexit. So many people in this country underestimate how Brexit set an unwelcoming culture & message that drove away hard workers. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
At this stage it would be easier to ascertain if there were any occasions at all when Boris Johnson actually followed any of the rules that he imposed on everyone else.
Boris Johnson referred to police over fresh claims of COVID lockdown rule breaking news.sky.com/story/boris-jo…
The Brexiter plan was for someone else to have a plan. Which they would then oppose.
This view that it was the job of other people to come up with a plan for what to do once Brexit was achieved is both pervasive amongst Brexiteers and also very, very odd. Shouldn't they have had a plan???
What is the Biden administration’s international economic agenda? National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan (@JakeSullivan46) kicks off a @BrookingsInst talk on the New Washington Consensus.
Watching Zoe Gardner calmly demolish Jonathan Gullis’s cliche question on UK asylum seekers is a thing of beauty.
EU already has lithography equipment under its export controls regime, and stopped issuing licenses to China. US competitors seized the opportunity selling alternative technology to China… and it’s the US doesn’t trust Europe to run its own export controls. Right.
Utterly shameful from you, Mary. I thought your days of being a Putin apologist had gone. It appears not. There's only one person escalating this war and that is Putin. Ukraine is fighting for its independence and we are supporting it. I am proud of that. Shame on you.
Q - Is the West escalating the Ukraine war? @unherd unherd.com/2023/02/is-the… A - of course it is. Why are so few people prepared to acknowledge this?
On the NI Protocol, the compromise that has been visible from space for months (years?), is something like: - Green lane/express lane enhanced trusted trader scheme. Authorised firms subject to less stringent/no customs, reg controls. Strict audit requirements & data sharing.
Spellcheck is determined to rechristen me "Same Lowe"
A friendly challenge to @RichardvReeves and co who say that it is Western strides in equality - leaving ‘lost boys’ and men with few role models and diminished prospects - which are ultimately behind the rise of Andrew Tate. This narrative feels right. Is it true? 🧵
