    Rioting across UK cities (summer 2024 and beyond)

    I think at least some of it was the principle of any given government coming up with values. I’m guessing those who liked Harper’s idea wouldn’t be so enamoured of any such plan from a Team Red government - or, heaven forbid, Team Orange if that ever happened.

    UKR is being the bigger man here, for sure, but they should beware of “getting Kurd’ed.”

    2026 Wildfire Season

    Agreed that this sounds like a "what can we do yesterday?" answer. I suspect the bureaucrats pointed out the complexity of 1) maintaining such a fleet, 2) the ... fickleness of figuring out how to assign the planes from a common pool, and 3) what do you do with water bombers when they're not...
