When Trump steals the 2026 midterms, Justin Webb will hail it as a great victory and a vindication of MAGA policy. There will be little or no mention of gerrymandering or the gutting of the Voting Rights Act.

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

Nothing will change for Labour until the PM, the Chief of Staff and the Comms director understand the modern media environment. ‘Quietly getting on with the job’ ended years ago.

EPSTEIN ON TRUMP: "Of course he knew about the girls"
Feels like we're going to see that on a few placards in the weeks and months to come.

It’s been a year since it was revealed that Nigel Farage hasn’t actually paid for his house in Clapton.
A year of silence from the media.
A year of looking the other way from the media.
A year of trying to pretend everything is in order.

Instead of asking who bought & paid for Nigel Farage’s house in Clapton, or investigating the fraud committed by Farage’s allies in the European Parliament or asking why Farage is repeating the propaganda of the Kremlin,

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

I wonder what Tim Montgomerie has in mind when he complains that it's wrong for the BBC to have a settled view on race and racism?

Robbie Gibb should have been ruled out of the running for the BBC Board in 2021: it was clear he'd been closely involved in setting up GB News - an ideological project aiming to rival to the BBC, & therefore a clear conflict of interest. The fact he was still allowed to join always rang alarm bells.

David Cameron may have been good at politics but we are living in his UK. His referenda divided us and left us weaker; his failures to invest left us with creaking infrastructure; his austerity wrecked our public services and countless lives. It would have been better if he'd been bad at politics.

Lord Briggs outlining why a repeal of the HRA (and withdrawal from ECHR) would not get rid of 'human rights' entrenched in common law.
Which is good, but also means populists will just up their attacks on the judiciary when they discover human rights law is still with us post-repeal/ECHR-exit.

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.
