The Lib Dems really are in a good place

Ed Davey is advocating positions that are popular, distinct from other parties and reflective of his values

Natural, ideologically sound and strategically sensible dividing lines

Some fear that Trump will undermine the state's capacity to fight financial crime.

But in a new post, I argue the real risk - much worse - is that Trump repurposes the US surveillance apparatus against what *he* deems suspicious.

Trump and the Future of Financial Surveillance
Some fear that Trump's administration will undermine the capacity of state agencies to fight financial crime. But the real risk is much worse.

This kind of obnoxious dismissiveness to a perfectly reasonable line of questioning is becoming more and more common from certain people on the right of politics. The "mainstream media" should start upping the ante and giving it back more

Sheesh!

The brain combusters all appeared on my tweet!

I almost feel sorry for them.

They are totally bewildered how this is happening.

Is GB News lying to them? (what a time to ask THAT question!)

It can’t be true😱

I'm very much enjoying how the "discover" feed here seems to be a combination of people saying hello, photos of assorted wildlife (lots of herons) and niche manga artwork Vs the relentless stream of posts from the absolute dregs of human existence and their russian bot friends over at the hell site
