YES! The Financial Times is now a redoubt of nomenclatural sticklerism regarding the Bayeux “tapestry”. Here we stand. We can do no other. https://amanita.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:mymiyz3x72kdfeb5nfmrk5my&cid=bafkreihf5bw3yg6rdcvsdl5kue746gjjiu4gp7kq7n2popv2awc7hhqp5y https://amanita.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:mymiyz3x72kdfeb5nfmrk5my&cid=bafkreiaqh4uzk56ypuxmtnnth4r5qzsj4fn7p2rbmz3cgwrtbisplv6iya

 ). Switzerland's not done much wrong but got clobbered by Trump's tariffs & can't just buy him off. Moral: don't be a small rich democracy which plays by the rules. First 300 clicks free. I'll be back in the seat next week. [Trump chill blows through Swis...](https://on.ft.com/4mBGN5h )
I had to find out who Sydney Sweeney was in order to have no view on her, and I now resent that expenditure of time and effort. https://amanita.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:mymiyz3x72kdfeb5nfmrk5my&cid=bafkreifkbgvldm5w2ondl2u3dqz54tv3lsg2tnrooefxruccrybxfzddmu

 ): it’s not just that the EU-US tariff “deal” is bad: it’s that it’s unclear what the deal is and may remain so.

There’s always one utterly duff card in every edition of Top Trumps, and in the Chester Zoo one it’s the two-toed sloth.

Every year I think oh great, am looking forward to being in Edinburgh during the Fringe, now to book some tickets, and then I remember what the Fringe website is like and I want to stay in bed for all of August.
My Trade Secrets today. The supposed tariff deals governments have made with Trump, including the EU’s rather humiliating climbdown, will if anything only embolden him to demand more. Isn’t that a cheering prospect?
