Piers Morgan, Prince Harry, phone hacking scandal

But he said he didn’t know? But the judge said that he knew?

I really enjoyed reading the witness statement.

Original documents are always the best, especially when there are some guarantees towards being more truthful than not.

Rwanda deportation

There was a Sumpreme Court judgment:

The Supreme Court unanimously dismisses the Home Secretary’s appeal, and upholds the Court of Appeal’s conclusion that the Rwanda policy is unlawful.

Press summary (5 pages), full judgment (56 pages), video:

So there is a debate about new law, that states exactly opposite:

People are already dying because of this legal fiction.

I live in the UK and I’m accustomed to consistent lying.

I take inspiration from Rishi Sunak - time after time I saw him being grilled by journalists and deflecting simple yes / no questions without lying.

That’s how UK politics works. Not lying. Deflecting.

And even if someone says that you are lying - denial, change of subject.

No trust in government.

No trust in politicians.

No trust in media.

Who do you trust then? Role models and influencers.

Maybe Mr Beast (together with Elon) will fix the world?

Thinking about who would be a good person to turn things around?

  • Leonardo di Caprio

  • Lionel Messi

  • Daniel Schmachtenberger

  • Elon Musk

  • Mars Robertson (myself)

  • Albert Einstein (see historical reference)
