My dears, where to start?

If McSweeney goes, Labour’s strategy goes too

Reform’s Farage claims furlough, condemns furlough, pockets furlough

And the Greens quietly eye what would be a first ever by-election win

All this and more for your delectation...

Reminder: Mandelson was appointed to made a trade "deal" (with zero legal basis) with a country which is reneging on it and which anyway buys only 17% of UK goods exports.

Not convinced that's worth a scandal which might bring down a prime minister. America-brain strikes British politics again.

People who make billions out of billions are invariably horrible, vicious, abusive, nasty, bitter human beings who think very highly of themselves and their needs and their pile of money and absolutely nothing of other human beings.

If the Epstein scandal has reminded us of anything it is that.

"Oil consumption of SUVs accounts for more than ¼ of the total annual rise in global oil demand.
The trend toward heavier and less efficient vehicles such as SUVs… has largely nullified the improvements in energy consumption and emissions achieved elsewhere in the world's passenger car fleet."
😠
With the world heating up [and more pedestrians being killed], why are more SUVs being sold?

“It’s the industry that has driven the demand through huge marketing & advertising campaigns in recent years. SUVs offered the industry a simple way of charging more for a vehicle that does the same thing.”
With the world heating up, why are more SUVs being sold?
Despite dire predictions of climate breakdown, more Sports Utility Vehicles are being spotted on, and off, the roads.

Awkward for Farage because a good number of Clarkson's many hardcore fans are natural Reform voters and will listen to him.
✅ Clarkson is right, people aren’t voting Reform for policies 👉there aren’t any.

It’s a protest vote powered by nostalgia not a plan for future.

Reform use farming as a prop. Their real plan is USA trade deal, hormone-treated imports and they’ve appointed Ben Goldsmith

Bigots and racists will never stop they will always be capable of finding another group of human beings that they hate and wish didn’t exist.

That’s why we should not have opened the door for them. They’re hateful, delusional cretins.

It is genuinely astounding how Reform, Labour and the Tories have decided to fight tooth-and-nail for the votes of the same 30-35 percent of the electorate and completely ignore everyone else.
Badenoch's strategic genius on full display here, telling centrist voters to fuck off, including in the 60+ seats the party lost to the Lib Dems, so she can focus on competing with an extreme right party ahead of her in the polls.
