I would be astonished if there's not exit clauses in this. Realistically Audi and Aston Martin could have vacancies and be better long-term picks, plus if Verstappen packs up then the whole grid shakes up.

Glen O'Hara@gsoh31.bsky.social · 3w agoSo it's farewell to the History subject area at the University of Hertfordshire, not the first nor the last to go. One of the best departments in the country, just extinguished like a snap of the fingers. Think of the waste. (1/2)
Super pleased to see Luke Kennard longlisted, who taught me as a professor at the University of Birmingham approximately a thousand years ago. I have Black Bag on my to-read list and his first novel was excellent also.

As Ed Miliband leaves his post as energy and net-zero secretary, a final tally: There have been an incredible 251 newspaper editorials attacking him and his approach to net-zero since the start of 2024 That amounts to two editorials a week, mainly in the Sun, Daily Mail, Times and Daily Telegraph.
What's concerning about Ferrari despite the strong work today is that there seems to be no understanding of the pace. They're fast when they think they'll be slow, and vice versa. Expect they should be in the mix in Budapest, so by that logic they'll be a distant P7 and P8.
There's that hope we were promised! No, we haven't had multiple record-breaking heatwaves even before August! No, renewable energy isn't cheaper and more reliable than ever before! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Burnham to announce plans for new North Sea oil and gas drilling
Drilling has become a controversial topic for the Labour party after the 2024 manifesto pledged to not issue new licenses.

If Burnham doesn't remove her, he'll have some absolutely rotten policies to defend and he won't win back a single Green or Lib Dem.
The Guardian@theguardian.com · 2mo agoAsylum seekers to pay £10,000 towards living costs under new UK law
One of the lessons of the last two years is that Labour urgently needs to stop being afraid of its own shadow. Burnham should appoint whoever he thinks would be the best Chancellor and throw his authority behind them. The Daily Mail will try to kill them anyway. So just govern.
Tim Bale@timbale.bsky.social · 2mo agoHard not to regard this as a classic example of a pre-emptive campaign by certain sectors, along with their media sympathisers, to discourage a new prime minister from appointing someone who might damage their interests in the long and short term. And it will almost certainly work.
The entitlement of this guy trying to warn off appointing Miliband as Chancellor. 'Oh it needs to be someone who understands how the Treasury works' - are you insane?

I have no idea how you read Klara and the Sun, a modern masterpiece, and come up with this movie adaptation (admittedly from the trailer only). You can only presume Waititi has some sort of AI bot that misinterprets tone at every step.
