I’ve kept close contact with friends in the Yard so know those cranes have only been repainted and been adfforded reactive maintenance. I was up in both 20 years ago and they were in poor enough shape then. Goliath is also damaged and has a reduced weight capacity I think too.

This is an incredibly dangerous moment. If the CCP does indeed crack down it could trigger a new global Cold War & Trump's recent comments green-lighting repression will go down in infamy.

They fantasize about the apocalypse in the dumbest incarnations (a race war! fiat currency collapse!) but climate change, which is actually is a realistic apocalyptic scenario, is happening now, and they don't care.

"Shortly before the shooting began in El Paso on Saturday, Mr. Trump retweeted Katie Hopkins, a right-wing British political commentator who has said Islam 'disgusts' her and urged her fellow citizens to 'arm ourselves' … against foreign infiltration." https://t.co/KRv19PKEVP

Video games, the internet, mental illness — Trump blames everything but guns for deadly weekend shootings. And his condemnation of "racism, bigotry and white supremacy" stands in sharp contrast to so much that has come before. https://t.co/nTXafoxIqL

When media treat him as normal pres, as if Trump isn’t the purveyor of white natl. and as if he hasn’t been hiding out at his golf course for more than a day after the El Paso, they enable him to maintain the patina of respectability https://t.co/8vm4jg3Zvb

Matters looking rather ropey in the Brexit negotiations. There’s apparently now nothing substantive planned until Biarritz G7 meeting at end of month. You’d expect the sort of briefings emerging from Brussels tonight, and a pinch of salt required etc BUT…
