Since the commercial demise of valuable sps of fish like Halibut in European waters, Westerners devour tropical tuna, take it for granted, threatening them. This from @waitrose is about as good as can be hoped with a good portrait that at least gives skipjack some recognition.

Heartbreaking. It’s becoming impossible to run a small business in Britain, the sums just don’t add up. No one making the rules has any experience running a business, they just don’t get it,
On this date in 1871 the memorable words (Mr Livingston I presume?) ascribed to Stanley were uttered in Ujuji, Africa.

⚖️ A VERDICT THAT COULD ECHO ACROSS AN OCEAN ⚖️
This Thursday at 10am (UK), the British Indian Ocean Territory Court of Appeal delivers its judgment and with it, the future of the Chagossian people.
More than half a century after their community was forcibly uprooted from the Chagos Islands, a small group finally made the journey home to Île du Coin this year, among them Louis Misley Mandarin and his father, who was born on the islands and removed as a child. Instead of a welcome, they faced removal notices.
The courts stepped in. The notices were quashed. Now the authorities have appealed, leaving an elderly generation, some of whom have waited decades to stand beside family graves, waiting once more on a decision made thousands of miles from their homeland.
A homeland is not a bargaining chip. Justice delayed for fifty years must not become justice denied again.
— Great British PAC Standing with the Chagossians. Their rights. Their heritage. Their future.

Once a country spends more servicing its debt than defending itself, it is — in Niall Ferguson's phrase — past the point a great power can sustain.
Britain has crossed that line.

Truly shocking.
Bridget Phillipson must urgently make clear whether she was aware of these appalling allegations. If she was, Phillipson must explain why Brand was allowed to meet and work with party staff.
Labour are drowning in sleaze and scandal.
