STARMER vs BLAIR? Who was the best PM? #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #StarmerVsBlair #TonyBlair #KeirStarmer #UKPolitics #LabourParty #PrimeMinister STARMER vs BLAIR – Who Was the Better Prime Minister? | Today's live debate asks a blunt question: was Tony Blair a once-in-a-generation political talent – and is Keir Starmer his opposite? Tony Blair entered Downing Street in 1997 riding a wave of optimism, confidence, and cultural change. Cool Britannia, economic growth, falling unemployment, peace in Northern Ireland, and a sense that Britain was finally moving forward. Blair had an extraordinary political antenna — he understood public mood, knew how to frame policy, and sold change with optimism rather than fear. Even controversial ideas, from public service reform to ID cards, were presented as part of a broader national project. Keir Starmer, by contrast, has entered office as one of the most unpopular Prime Ministers in modern polling history, and his problems appear largely self-inflicted. From chaotic U-turns on the winter fuel allowance, to repeated failures to "stop the boats", Starmer's government has struggled not just with delivery — but with political judgement. Policies are announced, abandoned, and reframed, reinforcing claims that Starmer has a Midas touch in reverse: whatever he touches becomes politically toxic. On immigration, Blair embraced freedom of movement as part of a confident, outward-looking Britain, even if the long-term consequences were underestimated. Starmer talks tough on the small boats crisis, yet crossings continue and legal obstacles mount, with human rights law frequently cited as both a constraint and a shield. Critics argue he has managed to look authoritarian to liberals and ineffective to voters — the worst of both worlds. This debate will confront uncomfortable questions: Did Blair's optimism and presentation mask serious long-term flaws — or is that exactly what leadership requires? Has Starmer's focus on "hard choices" simply translated into constant bad news and broken promises? Are ideas like ID cards, once rejected under Blair, now being revived out of desperation rather than vision? Is Starmer a serious reformer — or a technocrat who lacks the political instincts needed to lead? Blair changed the national mood. Starmer reflects it. Ambition vs anxiety. Optimism vs apology. Political instinct vs political tin ear.

Le président ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky se dit optimiste sur les chances de faire avancer les discussions visant à mettre fin à la guerre entre la Russie et l'Ukraine et annonce une rencontre avec Donald Trump dimanche 28 décembre en Floride. Les questions sensibles, telles que le sort du Donbass, devraient être abordées. Sous pression de l'administration américaine pour conclure un plan de paix, Volodymyr Zelensky a connu une fin d'année délicate. Il parvient malgré tout à conserver la confiance des Ukrainiens. Donald Trump voulait un accord avant Noël. Son vœu n'a pas été exaucé. « Beaucoup de choses peuvent être décidées avant le Nouvel an », veut croire Volodymyr Zelensky, au lendemain de discussions avec les envoyés de la Maison Blanche. En dépit de cet optimisme affiché, le président ukrainien est soumis à forte pression, d'autant que les positions russes restent, pour l'heure, inflexibles. Mardi, Volodymyr Zelensky a détaillé devant la presse le plan de paix révisé en 20 points, le présentant comme la meilleure tentative de l'Ukraine de mettre fin à la guerre. Le document aborde un large éventail de questions, allant des éventuels arrangements territoriaux aux garanties de sécurité que Kiev souhaite obtenir pour prévenir toute future agression russe, en passant par les plans de reconstruction du pays ravagé par la guerre. Selon Volodymyr Zelensky, les diverses sections du plan « reflètent en grande partie la position commune ukraino-américaine ». Reste quelques points de blocage, à commencer par la question épineuse de l'avenir du Donbass. La Russie exige que les forces ukrainiennes se retirent des territoires de la région de Donetsk qu'elles contrôlent encore. Le président ukrainien ne peut accepter cette demande. À écouter et à lire aussiVolodymyr Zelensky, président ukrainien S'il cède, « il n'aura plus d'avenir politique », tranche le politologue Volodymyr Fessenko du centre Penta à Kiev. « En Ukraine, le sentiment qui domine est qu'il est impossible d'accepter de reconnaitre juridiquement les territoires occupés comme étant russes. Si, en cas de cessez-le-feu le long de la ligne de front, une partie du territoire ukrainien restait sous contrôle russe, la plupart des Ukrainiens pourraient accepter ce scénario mais à condition que ces territoires ne soient pas reconnus juridiquement comme étant russes. » Militairement, l'Ukraine ne peut pas se permettre de céder des zones fortement fortifiées de Donetsk, note pour sa part la chercheuse ukrainienne Olena Prokopenko, du centre de réflexion German Marshall Fund. « Céder des territoires fortifiés sans combat offrirait à la Russie une base idéale pour intensifier son invasion. Si l'Ukraine acceptait ces concessions, notre position sur la ligne de front serait gravement affaiblie. Les abandonner sans combat, donner à la Russie des territoires qu'elle n'a pas réussi à conquérir en onze ans depuis l'invasion du Donbass, constituerait une décision militairement désastreuse », explique-t-elle. Le scénario dans lequel Volodymyr Zelensky se verrait contraint de céder tout le Donbass à la Russie « ne pourrait se produire qu'en cas de situation catastrophique sur le front ou dans le secteur énergétique, qui ne lui laisserait pas d'autre choix », avance Volodymyr Fessenko. Concessions territoriales Quoi qu'il en soit, le président ukrainien n'en sortirait pas indemne. Seule concession à laquelle Volodymyr Zelensky se dit prêt : l'Ukraine pourrait retirer ses troupes des zones de l'ouest de la région de Donetsk encore sous son contrôle, pour les transformer en une zone démilitarisée dans le cadre d'un éventuel accord de paix avec Moscou, à condition que la Russie retire ses forces d'une zone équivalente. En tout état de cause, Volodymyr Zelensky estime que la création d'une zone démilitarisée doit être approuvée par le biais d'un référendum. Parallèlement aux discussions autour du plan de paix, le président ukrainien a dû affronter une tempête intérieure ces derniers mois. L'affaire Midas, vaste affaire de corruption qui touche le secteur énergétique ukrainien, a poussé les ministres de la Justice Herman Halouchtchenko et la ministre de l'Énergie, Svitlana Hryntchouk à démissionner le mois dernier. Volodymyr Zelensky a ensuite dû se défaire de son plus proche conseiller, Andriy Iermak. En écartant le chef de l'administration présidentielle, qu'il n'a pas encore remplacé, tout en maintenant une ligne relativement ferme dans les pourparlers de paix, sa côte de popularité est remontée. Selon une enquête récente menée par l'Institut international de sociologie de Kyiv (KIIS), 61% des Ukrainiens lui font confiance. « Aussi étrange que cela puisse paraître, la confrontation autour du plan de paix de Donald Trump a une fois de plus aidé », affirme Volodymyr Fessenko. Le plan de paix amendé par Kiev prévoit également la tenue d'élections en Ukraine dès que possible après la signature d'un accord de paix. Le mandat présidentiel de cinq ans de Volodymyr Zelensky aurait dû expirer en mai de l'année dernière, mais il a été prolongé en vertu de la loi martiale en vigueur depuis l'invasion russe de 2022. Le chef de l'État a chargé le Parlement de réfléchir à des modifications de la législation électorale pour examiner la possibilité d'organiser une présidentielle. Olena Prokopenko y voit une « démarche habile » tant sur le plan intérieur qu'à l'international. « Cela envoie le signal qu'il redonne un rôle central au Parlement, qui a été largement marginalisé ces dernières années, en lui confiant une décision potentiellement historique. Sur le plan international, cela montre qu'il est prêt à participer à des élections et qu'il ne fuit pas ses responsabilités », explique-t-elle. Sur le plan international, cette initiative est vue comme importante car elle renvoie la pression vers Donald Trump, qui accuse son homologue ukrainien d'utiliser la guerre comme prétexte pour éviter une élection et se maintenir au pouvoir. « En acceptant de préparer un cadre législatif, Zelensky contraint Trump à faire pression sur Vladimir Poutine afin d'obtenir un cessez-le-feu, que ce dernier a rejeté à plusieurs reprises ces derniers mois. Cela permet de mettre en évidence que l'obstacle à la paix n'est pas l'Ukraine, mais bien la Russie », note Olena Prokopenko. Élection présidentielle Dans le cas, très hypothétique, où une élection présidentielle pourrait se tenir avant la fin des hostilités, quelles chances Volodymyr Zelensky aurait-il de remporter le scrutin ? La probabilité d'une victoire du président sortant est « très forte », selon la chercheuse du German Marshall Fund, « non pas parce qu'il n'existe pas de griefs à son égard, mais parce que l'Ukraine a besoin d'une unité maximale pour résister à la pression de l'administration américaine dans le cadre des négociations de paix. Ses chances de victoire seraient aujourd'hui bien supérieures à ce qu'elles seraient après la guerre ». La perspective pour Volodymyr Zelensky de remporter le scrutin est plus élevée aujourd'hui, abonde Volodymyr Fessenko : « Les citoyens qui lui sont favorables ou neutres évaluent positivement son rôle comme chef de la politique étrangère et commandant en chef. Après la guerre, surtout s'il devait conclure un accord de paix perçu comme défavorable, ses chances pourraient diminuer. » Dans ces conditions, certaines figures de l'opposition estiment que Volodymyr Zelensky pourrait être tenté d'organiser au plus vite des élections. Conformément aux engagements pris par le président auprès de Donald Trump, la Rada, le Parlement ukrainien s'apprête à examiner la question de l'organisation d'élections. Cependant, « il existe une faible probabilité qu'un projet de loi sur les élections en temps de guerre voit le jour. Son adoption reste incertaine. Le scénario le plus probable pour l'an prochain serait la tenue d'élections uniquement si un accord de cessez-le-feu était conclu au premier semestre », pronostique Volodymyr Fessenko, qui constate que « même au sein du parti présidentiel Serviteur du peuple, nombreux sont ceux qui s'opposent à des élections en temps de guerre. Si l'opposition et les députés réticents se mobilisent, l'adoption d'une telle loi sera impossible », souligne le politologue. En Ukraine, l'opinion publique estime, dans une très large majorité, qu'aucune des conditions sécuritaires, juridiques ou structurelles ne sont réunies pour organiser des élections, note Olena Prokopenko. « Les Ukrainiens comprennent que ce n'est pas le moment. Il n'existe aucune demande sociale en ce sens, et ce débat est principalement ravivé sous la pression de la Russie et des États-Unis ». Selon le sondage récent du KIIS, seuls 9 % des Ukrainiens soutiennent l'idée d'élections en temps de guerre.

¿Qué tienen en común los emprendedores que convierten ideas en riqueza duradera? El toque de Midas responde con una mano de cinco dedos: carácter que aguanta la tormenta, enfoque que elimina lo irrelevante, marca que abre puertas, relaciones que multiplican y detalles que no dejan que todo se caiga. Si falta uno, el negocio se resbala; si están todos, se vuelve fuerte y escalable. Y el libro no se queda en teoría: insiste en flujo de caja como oxígeno y en aprender rápido y barato, sin romanticismos.Entre ejemplos y golpes de realidad, Kiyosaki muestra cómo “Padre Rico” nació como marca antes que como producto, y Trump cómo una licencia de nombre puede valer más que un ladrillo. La lección se completa con blindaje legal, dominio de números y una mirada de largo plazo.

STARMER: Stand Down Now to Save the UK | General Election NOW #Starmer #UKPolitics #LabourParty #StarmerOUT #GeneralElection #JonGaunt #Live Keir Starmer's end-of-year review has exposed a brutal truth: he may be Prime Minister, but he is not in control. Approval ratings in the gutter. A Labour Party briefing against its own leader. MPs openly restless. And now, heading into Christmas, doctors preparing to strike, pushing the NHS deeper into chaos. Starmer promised seriousness, authority and competence. What the country is seeing instead is drift, division and weakness. Borders still not secure. Small boats still crossing. A so-called "one-in, one-out" deal with France that sounds tough but delivers little. Leadership pledges quietly abandoned. Principles rewritten when they become inconvenient. Even Starmer himself admitted today that his leadership is under strain — a staggering admission from a man sold as the "safe pair of hands". This is leadership by press release. Government without grip. A Prime Minister in office but not in control. Everything he touches seems to go wrong — the reverse Midas touch. And now his own MPs are circling, because they know what the public already feels: this government is running on empty. Britain cannot afford paralysis, party games and permanent crisis. If Starmer cannot lead, he should stand down. If this government cannot govern, the people must decide. General Election NOW.
2025 has been the Year of Superman, and Missing Frames has been celebrating James Gunn's new film by sitting down with some of the writers, artists, and actors who help make the Man of Steel so special. Past conversations have included comic legends Dan Jurgens, Mark Waid, Tom King, and Phillip Kennedy Johnson, reflections on Richard Donner's iconic film with Lauren Shuler Donner, and even a chat with Ma Kent herself, Neva Howell.Today's guest is another incredible talent: Jonah Lees, who appears in Superman as Dean Farr, one of Lex Luthor's LuthorCorp cronies, alongside his real-life twin brother, Christian. But Jonah's career extends far beyond Metropolis. A highlight of the conversation is his work with Richard Linklater and Ethan Hawke on Blue Moon, as well as his recent portrayal of John Lennon in the Brian Epstein biopic Midas Man. An actor, songwriter, musician, and director, Jonah is a multifaceted creative whose range is as impressive as it is exciting. What begins as a Superman celebration quickly becomes a love letter to many shared passions: Superman, Richard Linklater, and The Beatles.

Afro-américaine à la voix souveraine, Annahstasia dévoile avec Tether un premier album d'une rare intensité, renouant avec la folk dans ce qu'elle a de plus ancrée, essentielle et engagée. À travers quatre objets symboliques, elle retrace un parcours intime entre héritage et spiritualité, en quête de liberté. Rencontre. Puissante et fragile à la fois, sans âge, la voix d'Annahstasia semble sculpter l'air autant que le silence. Elle ne ressemble à rien de connu et paraît venir de loin, et pour cause… À 17 ans, l'industrie a voulu la coincer dans une case r'n'b. Elle a claqué la porte, est devenue mannequin, puis s'est réinventée là où personne ne l'attendait : dans une musique libre, farouche, indomptable. À 30 ans, la voilà qui déploie Tether, un premier album d'une rare intensité, entre folk dépouillée, envolées soul et mysticisme pop. Une musique qu'elle qualifie elle-même de Power Folk, parce qu'elle renoue avec l'esprit engagé de la folk des années 60 et ambitionne de «raconter les histoires de notre époque d'une manière qui nous aide à nous souvenir — maintenant, et dans cent ans.» Quelques heures avant son concert parisien au Pitchfork Festival, j'ai retrouvé Annahstasia au Café de la Danse, où je lui ai soumis quatre objets choisis tout spécialement pour elle. À travers eux, elle m'a ouvert les portes de son univers : de Los Angeles à Abidjan, de Londres au village nigérian de son père. On a parlé de cette voix qu'elle considère comme un don — une puissance ancestrale dont elle mesure la responsabilité, d'amour — celui qu'on donne, celui qu'on apprend à se porter, et de la manière dont, malgré le racisme et les assignations, elle a appris à «croire en ses possibles».

Dalam mitologi Yunani, Raja Midas mendapat berkah dari dewa Dionysos: segala yang disentuhnya akan berubah menjadi emas. Midas bergembira. Ia menyentuh pohon, batu, bahkan istananya—semua berkilau keemasan. Namun kegembiraan itu tak berlangsung lama. Ketika ia hendak makan, roti berubah jadi emas. Anggur mengeras di tangannya. Yang terburuk: ketika ia memeluk putrinya, sang buah hati membeku menjadi patung emas. Apa yang semula tampak sebagai berkah justru menjadi kutukan paling mengerikan. Seperti itulah sawit!

Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to review the dichotomy between gold and silver stock fundamentals versus market reactions based on investor sentiment; which is oscillating quite a bit in both directions over the last 2 months. We review how the sentiment and investor reaction towards company financings has changed a great deal over the last few months. Now upsized financings, like the one we saw announced for Silver Viper Minerals Corp. (TSXV: VIPR) (OTCQB: VIPRF) for $15 million, are having positive reactions after the news is released; instead of it being a reason to sell the stock down. Erik points out that now investors are more hesitant to just sit on the sidelines, because they see the risk being to the upside if the upsized capital raised can then lead to further news and value creation from the company. Next we discussed what kinds of other resource sector news is getting the best reactions or most traction from the market, from fundamental milestones to merger and acquisition transactions. Erik highlights that he often likes to search for sector news that may still be impactful for juniors that he is positioned in, even if the news is not directly associated with a given company. He highlights the news out today from Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL) focused on exploration at their Midas Project as potentially also beneficial to Headwater Gold Inc. (CSE: HWG) (OTCQB: HWAUF) exploring nearby in their JV with Newmont Gold. “Hecla Mining Company today announced exploration results from its Midas Project in Nevada, where initial drilling of the previously untested two mile long Pogo Trend has discovered high-grade gold mineralization with visible gold on a new structure. Exploration success at the Midas gold-silver project in Nevada is validating the potential to restart operations at significantly lower capital intensity than comparable development projects, given the existing permitted 1,200 tpd mill and permitted tailings storage facility that remains substantially empty. With the foundational infrastructure already in place and permitted, Nevada's supportive regulatory environment could facilitate timely permitting of additional requirements, positioning Midas as a low-capital-cost opportunity to expand the Company's production profile in a world-class mining district. The Company also reported the advancement of Aurora exploration permitting to FAST-41 Transparency status.” * In full disclosure, the companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.

2025-11-18 | Silicon Wafers 059 | Kyiv has doubled down on the line: “He's on a planned trip, not a fugitive”. They are referring to former defence minister Rustem Umerov and the persistent rumours he has “left the country and refuses to return”. The government vehemently claims these rumours spreading like wildfire on social media, are ‘very explicitly' false. So, is this scandal or psyop? Ukraine's Center for Countering Disinformation (CPD) has now refuted the story of “Umerov fleeing and refusing to return”, but it's clear that Russian propaganda has been handed a gift that it won't let go of easily. The officially sanctioned story is that he is on a scheduled official trip, “working in the United States” and holding meetings “aimed at strengthening international support for Ukraine,” and that he “remains in constant working contact with the state leadership.”----------SOURCES: "The CCD refuted fake news about Umierov's escape What they say | Censor.NET"https://censor.net/en/news/3585492/the-ccd-refuted-fake-news-about-umierov-s-escape-what-they-say "Umerov to return to Ukraine, probably on Thursday - source | УНН"https://unn.ua/en/news/umerov-to-return-to-ukraine-probably-on-thursday-source "The NSDC officially announced the date of Umerov's return to Ukraine • ANTIKOR portal"https://antikor.ua/en/amp/articles/803699-snbo_ofitsialjno_nazval_datu_vozvrashchenija_umerova_v_ukrainu "Ukraine seeking exchange of 1,200 prisoners with Russia"https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraine-seeking-exchange-1200-prisoners-with-russia-2025-11-16/ "Top 7 most brazen facts and episodes from the Mindich case"https://english.nv.ua/nation/midas-case-reveals-corruption-influence-and-private-ties-in-ukraine-s-energy-and-defense-sectors-50561071.html"Umerov denies Mindic's influence in 2025 | Ukrainian News"https://news.liga.net/en/politics/news/the-sapo-reported-mindichs-alleged-influence-on-umerov-the-nsdc-secretary-responded "Corruption in the energy sector - the Midas scandal exposed the influence of Bankova Street and the escape of the main suspect - ZN.ua"https://zn.ua/eng/operation-midas-how-absolute-power-was-built-one-dollar-at-a-time.html "The Secretary of the NSDC of Ukraine is in no hurry to return"https://eadaily.com/en/news/2025/11/16/the-secretary-of-the-nsdc-of-ukraine-is-in-no-hurry-to-return-there-is-a-lot-of-work-on-prisoners----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

Alan sits down once more with Dr. Tim Anderson to dive deep into the rapidly evolving landscape of digital dentistry. The episode begins with a hilarious, relatable discussion about the terrors of crashing recording software and the potential (and pitfalls) of AI, touching on everything from homework help to its role in revolutionizing clinical notes and reading X-rays. The conversation quickly pivots to Dr. Anderson's journey from engineering and architecture interests to his passion for the dental lab and in-house manufacturing, fueled by his residency and the purchase of a CEREC system. He reveals why he moved past early zirconia and EMAX to embrace new technologies. Dr. Anderson then shares his excitement for SprintRay's Midas, explaining how its new "Digital Press Stereo Lithography" technology is a game-changer, not just an evolution of 3D printing. He believes this new class of manufacturing, especially combined with AI, is poised to unlock limitless potential in restorative dentistry, particularly for procedures like onlays and eventually even complex bioprinting applications. He concludes by emphasizing that while technology is crucial, the biggest hurdle for dentists is often the software and the willingness to integrate and innovate.

Midas was granted the magical touch from a trickster demon. He thought it would be a great gift to touch everything and turn it to gold, as he was not content with his wealth. His selfish desire led to disastrous results, reminding us to be mindful of the potential negative outcomes of our desires. As we reflect on this age-old fable, a gigantic monetary reset is on the way. How gold and silver are performing now indicates the inevitability and direction of the financial market. Gold is screaming higher, and that's concerning to everybody who is paying attention. This coveted and magical precious metal has been actively suppressed by the West for so long that we now have to ask if they have finally lost control of its inherent value.

Alan welcomes back Dr. Tim Anderson to discuss the transformative impact of digital technology on modern dentistry. The episode kicks off with a brief mention of Dr. Anderson's recent "Midas tour" focused on partial coverage restorations, which serves as a springboard into a deeper discussion about the dramatic technological shift since their dental school days at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Anderson reflects on what he'd tell his younger self, highlighting the near-unbelievable advancements in: Intraoral scanning and the power of AI in design. 3D printing and same-day ceramic restorations. The doctors agree that while technology is crucial, the patient interaction and communication it enables are the real game-changers, using large monitors and engaging patients in the co-discovery process. They delve into the exciting evolution of 3D-printed materials, moving beyond simple resins to explore high-translucency ceramics and "digital press stereolithography" (Midas), which opens the door for layered, customized restorations that mimic natural tooth anatomy. The conversation touches on the enduring debate between full-coverage crowns and partial coverage (onlays), noting the current culture's tendency toward black-and-white treatment planning. Dr. Anderson expresses excitement for new workflows and materials that bridge the gap between traditional artistry (like gold inlays) and digital precision, ultimately focusing on how technology empowers better patient care and education.

In the first chapter, told over four episodes, senior market reporter Eileen Kinsella unravels the rise and fall of dealer Inigo Philbrick.

What followed was a cascade of international claims from clients who had entrusted him with millions, drawn in by his supposed Midas touch in the art market. From art fairs to gallery openings to gala dinners, the question on everyone's lips was the same: Where's Inigo? In this third episode, we examine the fallout from Philbrick's fraudulent deals, and the frenzy that erupted in the art world after his sudden disappearance.
