God, supermarket eggs are tasteless. Nice venison chorizo, though.

We live under a cultural establishment that thinks saying ‘he’ about a fella in a dress is an act of outrageous ‘erasure’. Yet it also thinks screaming ‘Nazi!’ at a politician on a loop has no problematic impact whatsoever, and anyone who says otherwise must be a Trump brown-noser. My view is that the violent animus for Trump is of a piece with the lethal intolerance of our times. From these attempted assassinations to the slaying of Charlie Kirk, from the racist targeting of ‘Zionist’ businesses (Jews) to the death threats against TERFs, it feels like there is a new barbaric style in Western politics. In replacing democratic discussion with a depthless spiral of grievance-mongering, cancel culture has birthed monsters, prime among them a savage disdain for those who disagree with us.

First Minister of the Chagossian Government Misley Mandarin has given the US permission to strike Iran using Diego Garcia. He said from the Chagos Islands:

These are dangerous times and so I must be absolutely clear …. If the United States decides that action is needed to defend international order, then as the elected Government of these islands, we give our permission for the use of Diego Garcia in defence of peace, secured through strength.

Meanwhile Labour is still refusing to say Trump can use UK military bases for any strikes…
