Forget all the Mar-a-Lago Accord philosophizing. This is Trump’s thinking on tariffs: “I own the store, and I set prices, and I'll say, if you want to shop here, this is what you have to pay.” Note that in this metaphor the shoppers are actually sellers.

TODAY, 5.30, vigil at the Kindertransport statue (Liverpool St station) to mark the Nazis' defeat, oppose fascism, and call for return of children abducted by Russia. Delighted we'll be joined by Labour politician ALF DUBS, who came here as part of the Kindertransport in 1939.

Does Ukraine really not hold any cards, as Donald Trump so trenchantly insisted ? I spoke Liliane Bivings from The Kyiv Independent about my recent PeaceRep LSE IDEAS report on the political economy of the Russo-Ukrainian War. kyivindependent.com/clearly-ukrain…

Maguire "you know the issue that came up on the doorstep [in Runcorn].. WFA & disability cuts. People weren't saying, we're not voting [Labour] because of migration. So Starmers ignored how he's punched his Lab voters in the face & hes focusing on migration, legitimising Reform"
