Trump is replicating a tactic of former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and attempting to manipulate Google SEO. It was obvious then, and it’s obvious now. Worryingly, for Boris, - it was also as effective as it was dumb.

Boris used to do this when he was UK PM, but Trump’s attempted is at a scale Boris only dreamed of. Boris would release little news stories about him and busses, that he had a hobby painting busses, or that he couldn’t remember the words to the children’s song, ‘the wheels on the bus’. Meant that those stories would come up in an online search, instead of his catastrophic running of busses when mayor, or plastering false claims about brexit on the side of a bus.

It’s the same. Trump is hoping next time you Google ‘trump files’, it’s all about aliens. Yes, it’s that dumb.

This one has been a bit of a hunt and this week I’m at a point where I have a collection to share. This started in 2008 with the HMV (store) collector’s edition Blu-ray. A while ago when wanting to upgrade my dvd’s, I found that the same packaging had been used for UK Amazon exclusive Blu-ray releases of several films in 2021. I’d missed the boat so needed to hunt them down on eBay over the last 18 months. Most illusive was Kiki’s Delivery Service which has only come up on eBay four times in the last 18 months - one I missed, second was in a very expensive bundle, and the third was badly damaged (and still sold for £30). This week I snagged that with a bundle of seven others - three I needed.

So here they are - transfers are lovely, and they all come in gold out digipak packaging with art cards. Look great in the shelf.
