Just a reminder: Brooklyn Beckham’s father-in-law tried to launch a hostile takeover bid for Disney because he thought it had become too “woke”. If my son was marrying into a family like this, I’d be doing everything I could to protect his interests, and ours.

Well that’s his SEO ruined for now

Good to see Warwickshire punching above its weight. With 10% of West Midlands population, it delivers 14% of economic output - £22-25bn annually. Workers are 17% more productive per hour than regional average. Attracted a third of regional overseas investment in 2024/25.

Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks. Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.

Crocuses are out in Cockermouth cemetery
