Corporate America will see forced sell-offs as Trump’s friends scramble to raise funds to cover dubious positions and practises. | ft.com/content/89b80817-fe6b… | Send not to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. (John Donne) #Elections2026

In time we may have Ai Agents running Government with no meddlesome humans involved. | ft.com/content/d338594b-ca66… | Vote Claude - because democracy isn’t working. #ThursdayThoughts

With above ‘target’ inflation now embedded in the UK economy it’s time to end the @bankofengland’s independence experiment. | ft.com/content/212d4b87-9fce… | Burnham’s 10 yr. Plan needs to include a more coherent approach to monetary policy. #WednesdayThoughts

Ratcliffe appoints an inexperienced manager. Then fails to afford the manager a chance to develop the required experience. | telegraph.co.uk/football/202… | And now the Crazy Gang will fork out £15million/yr to attract Pochettino! @ManUtd - you couldn’t make it up. #FootballThoughts

Any attempt to engage with @HMRCgovuk provides ample evidence of the shuttered UK ‘State’. | telegraph.co.uk/politics/202… | And tweaks by Antonia Romeo won’t make a jot of difference. #TuesdayThoughts

There appears to be no truth to the rumour that the next James Bond will be Zhang Ziyi. | theguardian.com/technology/2… | Crouching Tiger, Sneaky Spy… #nvidiaceo #TuesdayThoughts

£20billion down the drain. While @Ofwat approves a plan for customers to pay for “improvements” they’ve already paid for. | theguardian.com/business/202… | @thameswater must be forced to place itself into receivership. Its creditors gambled. And lost. #MondayThoughts

United’s manager, under pressure, salvages a point. Villa’s manager, in demand, throws away two points! | theguardian.com/football/202… | @ManUtd should stick with Carrick and double down on dressing-room discipline. #FootballThoughts

Tax payers should be told why, having invested £millions, some NHS units are opting not to use @PalantirTech; IT isn’t a pick’n’mix stall. | theguardian.com/commentisfre… | One NHS, one data platform. #MondayThoughts

Shifting @CompaniesHouse from @biztradegovuk to @hmtreasury would address many of the agency’s failings. | ft.com/content/1b67f9c7-b1ad… | @10DowningStreet’s 10yr Plan must tear down Whitehall’s silos and rebuild the State’s architecture. #MondayThoughts

Virgin Media will go the the way of Thames Water; drowned by debt loaded up by venture capitalist owners. | theguardian.com/business/202… | Liberty Global, never a ‘fit & proper’ owner, played the EU Commission like a cheap banjo. #SundayThoughts

Given the @metpoliceuk’s woeful record it’s perhaps best to ignore Rowley’s dubious reasoning. | theguardian.com/uk-news/2026… | Performance & Accountability should be central to policing rather than costs. (Other coffee brands are available). #SaturdayThoughts

Bolsonaro has flown out of the frying pan, into the post mid-terms fire. | theguardian.com/world/2026/n… | With the looming threat of impeachment Trump will have his own bonfire of the vanities. #FridayThoughts

Anthropic only needed to ask Claude about the wisdom of launching an IPO weeks after mid-term elections. | telegraph.co.uk/business/202… | OpenAI asked ChatGPT and came up with late 2027. #FridayThoughts

Apple’s Cupertino HQ can accommodate 15,000, cost £4 billion and took 4 yrs to complete. | theguardian.com/commentisfre… | If only @Apple did Government. #FridayThoughts

When will the One-Trick Pony @bankofengland accept they’re part of the problem. Crushing growth to curtail inflation helps no one. | telegraph.co.uk/business/202… | @UKLabour should change the team or end the failed experiment of bank independence. #ThursdayThoughts

The first rule of Fight Club is; focus on voters pay checks. Only when there is a little left at the end of the month do you tackle the other stuff. | ft.com/content/800da770-639b… | Iran needed tackling but could have waited ‘til 2027. #Midterms26

Perhaps now Burnham can ask the Normans for reparations. William’s 11th century Harrying of the North did much to shape modern Britain. | theguardian.com/world/2026/n… | The Irish too may wish to open a dialogue. #ThursdayThoughts

BMW, like most European manufacturers, went big on China. Creating awful cars for a fleeting market. | theguardian.com/business/202… | The company that gave the world the M1 sunk to offering the truly shocking iX line up. #WednesdayThoughts

Coming to football grounds near you! LFR will soon be as commonplace as the dodgy burgers and touts. | theguardian.com/technology/2… | The march towards Orwell’s 1984 grows ever quicker. #WednesdayThoughts
