There's an idea in management that when you join a new role as a manager you shouldn't do anything except listen and learn for 100 days as you won't understand what you're doing.

This doesn't apply to a country of course, though it may to some individual ministers in odd departments, but I do think it's an interesting idea to keep in mind. Sometimes immediate action is the exact wrong thing to do.

On The Rest is Politics Campbell has said he thought it was a mistake to have the budget so long after the election and I think he's right. It gives the impression of a vague meandering with nothing happening.

It seems like the original criticism doesn't apply though, this actually is that good for many people and actually causes them to do the thing the politician was asking them to.

I've obviously misunderstood ozempic, I thought it removed appetite? That would prevent the bad eating entirely surely not fix it after you eat a lot?

I agree but I can see why someone might not want to invite the people they feel ruined their home back to have another go.

An unconventional response? Like, giving a load of idiots by the world's most used shipping lane weapons to blow up shipping whenever they want?

Absolutely they've been doing this for ages. Fuck them and fuck netanyahu

I'm torn, because this is useless, but also I'd quite like them up high on a platform for everyone to point and laugh at.

Light my arse, from the start they've interrupted with adverts for their own crap making it barely tolerable. Even on the adfree tier.

Canceled and no intention of ever going back. Measuring your ad load by American standards doesn't work when your competition is netflix and iPlayer.

The us, and perhaps the west in general, hasn't really used red lines since Obama threatened Syria if they used chemical weapons and then didn't follow through.
