🚨 BREAKING: James Comey posts a video statement following his indictment "My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way. We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn't either.…

Gleeful Hamas sees PM Starmer’s Palestine recognition as vindication for murder & terror. This cowardly cynicism will come back to haunt Western leaders, writes @thetimes @matthewsyed thetimes.com/article/d740ec…
Good piece. I would love to hear a plausible argument (I haven’t heard one yet) that AI isn’t an existential calamity in the making, perhaps quite soon

In this clip, @lawrennd, editor of the new journal RSS: Data Science & Artificial Intelligence, shares why statistical methodology is key to understanding today’s complex algorithms. Read the opening editorial: oxford.ly/46pxwrT @RoyalStatSoc oxford.ly/42d9jCE
Behind the Westminster wreckage, an Anglo-American tech deal is taking shape. My column on what to expect on Trump's visit - and why it could matter more than this week's debacle. thetimes.com/comment/column…
Trump 2.0 is pushing the non-aligned world towards China, while the US, UK & France pile on more debt and the EU more regulations. The west is in deep trouble, divided internally & facing a determined enemy. I almost wish for a bond crisis to wake us up👇 thetimes.com/article/793e62…
“[Xi Jinping] sees the moment of peak advantage for China is still to come." A sovereign bond crisis may be the only event dramatic enough to wake the west up to the seriousness of a threat from China, says Sunday Times columnist @matthewsyed. @Chloetilley | #TimesRadio
Another superb column from @matthewsyed today. Europe has 10% of the world’s population. 30% of its economy. 58% of its social protection spending. A crisis is coming - and it may be better that the markets call time sooner rather than later.
