“So true”, “sad!”, many are saying”, “you’re telling me now for the first time”, “don’t we folks”, and “many such cases” alone would cement Trump as the most influential orator in American politics since WW2

Enough new town time. Gonna do some old town stuff.

@thomasforth It's very easy to see. Look at the areas that have grown (mid & large cities, now full of tech/consulting/ind design companies, urban graduates earning several times more than their parents ever dream of) Vs those in decline (small industrial cities, rural areas)

@thomasforth I've lived in Poland and it felt relatively obvious that the real advances driving the country forward are in public infrastructure and education. (now far above Britain and Germany on PISA scores, and third highest public investment of any advanced economy)
Shout out Intel who just more than halved the cost of Small Form Factor GPUs and AI assistants. Competition. It's good. www-techpowerup-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.techpo…
I am glad to have a Midlands MP as science minister, and a nice bonus that she's one of the most photogenic politicians and should create some fab science pics. 👍🇬🇧
I'd enjoy it if Keir Starmer appointed a Minister who was neither in the Commons or the Lords just for the pure constitutional banter of it.
