Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

We need a properly designed and governed national identifier, as foundational, universal, publicly owned digital infrastructure for the UK. Not a 'card' or 'ID' but public infrastructure with associated rights of citizen access and quality.

Lots of talk again about China, the US, and Russia dividing the world into spheres of influence. One problem with this idea is that after 30 years of trying, Russia's sphere is limited to Belarus, Georgia, and 20% of Ukraine. Another is that if China has a sphere, it includes Russia.

It's New Year, so time to look back and forward. These are 10 things I think we need to recognise in 2026. It’s a response to what I think are profoundly damaging mistaken assumptions I’ve heard and read from practitioners, journalists, and analysts in 2025. Warning: very long🧵

How am I supposed to work out who the Secret Traitor is when I didn’t even realise Roxy shouted “Mum!” to Judy during the mission, before we got the actual reveal of the secret relationship? And how on earth did nobody hear her?!
