The “success story” of Tory education reform is a mirage

Vance, a man who won’t dare to say aloud the truth, that Trump lost the 2020 election, a lie which prompted a riot and insurrection, lecturing Europe about freedom of speech and democracy. You couldn’t make it up.

Have written about Starmer's speech- his best moment yet as PM. He implicitly identified what sits at the heart of this story: the emergence of a common UK/US online right, headed by the radicalised Musk.
It is making extremist, until recently fringe politics mainstream in British conservatism.

Just catching up with Laura Kuenssberg interview with Yvette Cooper…’when can our viewers..?’… ‘what our viewers want to know …’ etc. Do all her viewers have the same views? How does she know? This patronising populist arrogance has echoes with GB News.
