We are the only country in the world to have a trade surplus with America in music. And our manufacturing ingenuity gets daily more boggling. I think of the Uxbridge factory that makes bus stops in Las Vegas.

Wake up with a hangover in Vegas and the chances are that a little piece of London is shielding you from the elements.

And the other Uxbridge factory that makes the futuristic wooden display cabinets for duty free Toblerones in every airport in Saudi Arabia. Think of that – the invisible hand of the market circling the earth in search of a Toblerone cabinet and pointing at Uxbridge.

Toblerone duty-free display cabinets. THINK ABOUT THAT.

This man has been knighted?

Bit weird - even by Tory MP standards - to admit on Twitter that you want to shag your sister isn’t it?

Then again, his constituency is in Lincolnshire…

I was going to say this, basically. Read a deep dive article about the situation there and it was so depressing I had to give up. Can only pull my hair out about the politics of so many countries.

Was is one of these?

Some good, if depressing, stuff in them.

No, but thank you for posting more articles I’d sooner watch Threads again than read.
