Every evening at about this time, it's exciting to tune into the news to find out what new act of madness #Trump has foisted upon the world.

The new PM of #Canada, Mark #Carney...hard to imagine a man more different in experience, outlook, character and skill set than the President of the big country to the south. #Trump v Carney is going to be fascinating.

As a #ManchesterUnited supporter I'm very excited about the plans for our new 100,000 capacity #stadium, due to open in 2030 (ish). Really hope #MUFC are performing very much better on the pitch by then or there's a danger our new stadium will never be full.

So if #VoiceOfAmerica is being canned by #Trump, will this mean bigger audiences and a more prominent role for the #BBC World Service?

20% #TrumpTariffs on the EU. 10% #TrumpTariffs on the UK. Is that a #Brexit benefit?

the british didn’t understand what brexit meant for their economy. but they wanted it, they voted for it, and they’ve gotten it. now it’s the americans’ turn.

Will the UK's membership of the #CPTPP enable us to trade more with its 11 member countries, scale back our trade relationship with the US & limit the impact of the #TrumpTariffs? Obvs a closer trade relationship with #EU is better but #Labour are blind to these opportunities.

Seems that #China does indeed have many ways to frustrate #Trump and fight his wretched #tariffs...like telling its airlines to stop taking delivery of any more #Boeing jets. (Makes mental note to buy shares in #Airbus).

It's good that the owners of #tobycarvery have now apologised for felling a healthy 500 year old #oak tree in #Enfield...now maybe they can plant 500 oak saplings to make up for it.

Pretty astonishing really to look out over all of the #football leagues in #Europe & see that the final of the #EuropaLeague will be contested between the 15th & 16th best teams in the English #PremierLeague. #MUFC #THFC

Sounds like the plot to unseat #Badenoch as #Tory Party leader is gathering momentum. No doubt #borisjohnson, who has been very quiet of late, is itching to get back into the fray. Hard to see any constituency wanting him as their MP though.

A big thank you #KeirStarmer, on behalf of my grandchildren, for negotiating with the #EU for the UK to participate in a Youth Mobility Scheme. They'll now have opportunities to live, work, study & love in Europe - opportunities that many of us older Brits once took for granted.

I'm a big fan of a good English afternoon tea. On a recent visit to #Japan I got to try a #matcha afternoon tea. Rather different, I'm sure you'll agree.

#Lammy fails to purchase a fishing-rod licence ahead of his PR fishing stunt with #JDVance at #Chevening. No doubt some poor underling will get fired for this embarrassing administrative oversight.

Clear as daylight after the #PremierLeague game v #Arsenal today that #ManchesterUnited will have to bring in a world-class goalkeeper. If we don't, we'll be mid-table again this season.

The poor start to the season for #MUFC needs to be put in context...we're only 2 points behind #Arsenal and above #ManchesterCity

Not at all sure that the "Prince of Darkness" will be able to talk his way out of this one #Mandelson

With the approval for a 2nd runway at #Gatwick, hope there'll be upgrades to the #M23 to cope with all the extra traffic

Andy #Burnham is on #Labour leadership manoeuvres, & with just a few #Truss-like utterings has already managed to spook the bond markets. Why do so many UK political leaders fail to understand the power of the bond markets to kybosh any spending plans that smack of recklessness?

Starting to think #Amorim meets the definition of insanity with his approach at #ManchesterUnited. Week in week out he asks his team to play the same way yet he seems to expect different results.
