"Conceived in 1960s Czechoslovakia, Vladimir Putin ordered the competition’s return and the US has now confirmed its participation – is this domestic theatre or international outreach?"

UK-EU summit will be step on path to better relations, says Rachel Reeves Exclusive: Chancellor tells Guardian that UK will retain red lines such as no free movement but ‘there will be future areas where we can do more’
Peter Navarro, Trump’s chief trade adviser, just told reporters outside the White House that British consumers will like chicken and beef imported from the US despite the use of chlorine and hormones. “Let’s see what the market decides,” Navarro said when asked about longstanding concerns in the UK about the safety of chlorinated chicken and hormone-fed beef produced in the US. “Our position is and always has been”, he added, that sanitary standards are “simply a phony tool used to suppress what is very fine American agricultural product”. “So if more of that comes into the market and the British people don’t want to buy it, that’s one set of facts,” Navarro said. “We don’t believe that once they taste American beef and chicken that they would prefer not to have it.”

In Q&A, Vance notes that securing Greenland would “require investing more resources,” including in military icebreakers and naval ships with greater presence in Greenland – but there are no immediate plans for deployment now. He then talks about the risks and dangers posed by China and Russia in particular. “We need to wake up from a failed 40 year consensus that said that we could ignore the encroachment of powerful countries as they expand to their ambitions. We can’t just bury our head in the sand or in Greenland, bury our head in the snow and pretend that the Chinese are not interested in this very large land mass. We know that they are.”

And it’s not good news if you rely on state support to get by. Because the presumption of innocence is changing. The assumption is now that you’re a slacker trying to cheat the system. Someone wangling to get the state to pay for their Netflix subscription because of some hyper-woke imaginary complaint that prevents them from being arsed to leave the house to go to work. Better that 700,000 disabled people are pushed into poverty than one scrounger gets away with a life of free-rolling. It’s God’s work. What Jesus would have wanted.

No matter how distasteful we find Trump and Vance over Europe, they speak a blunt truth | Simon Jenkins
A century ago Teddy Roosevelt likewise guarded America’s back yard in the Pacific. Trump is doing the same now against Panama and Canada. The west did not stop Russia guarding its “sphere of interest” when it invaded Georgia, or Crimea and eastern Ukraine in 2014. Putin was always likely to feel threatened by Volodymyr Zelenskyy, particularly when he perceived Ukraine to be stuffed with anti-Russian fascists.
Vance says US economic interest in Ukraine would serve as security guarantee More now on JD Vance’s comments in that pre-recorded Fox News interview. Vance told Fox News on Monday that giving Washington an economic interest in the future of Ukraine will serve as a security guarantee for the country that Russia invaded in February 2022. “If you want real security guarantees, if you want to actually ensure that Vladimir Putin does not invade Ukraine again, the very best security guarantee is to give Americans economic upside in the future of Ukraine,” Vance said in the interview. “That is a way better security guarantee than 20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years,” he added.

Philanthropy as a means to address hardship isn’t just impractical – it’s wrong. It ignores the structural inequalities that lead to poverty and illness and lets the state off its responsibility to fix them. It suggests the problem is a lack of individual generosity rather than how we collectively organise the economy and society. It robs people of the dignity and autonomy that tax-funded support can bring, forcing the poorest to hold a figurative begging bowl up in place of their rights. Or to put it another way: no one should have to use a donation bin to have clean hair for Christmas.
