The Putin-Trump surrender plan is the end if European security. If you decided you didn’t care about Ukraine (I do, but just if) you should oppose with every fibre if you don’t want further Russian attacks on Europe.
It really is that simple.

Completely agree.
The fates of Ukraine and Europe are linked.
European security system will be destroyed without Ukraine.

5 parties with double digit support. An election under FPTP would be a lottery as to who comes out on top. We need a national commission NOW to determine which electoral system would be best to fairly express what voters want.

I'm having a complicated relationship with ChatGPT. Instinctively, I oppose it, but I tried it to scratch an itch on two creative projects that had been rattling around in my brain for ages, and I've made more progress on both of them in two weeks than I have in many years without it. Really torn.

But more to the point - offering asylum to people fleeing war or torture or persecution is what decent nations do. It's what defines us. Without that it's just a race to the bottom.

Without asylum:
Marks and Spencer wouldn't exist
Queen would have been without a front man
The other queen wouldn't have had a husband
Judith Kerr would never have written The Tiger Who Came to Tea
And thousands of less famous people wouldn't have been teachers, politicians, neighbours, etc

I spent four weeks as a Traitor in my office and almost lost my mind | Ed Campbell
After a colleague had the bright idea of a workplace version of the hit BBC show, I lied and cheated with impunity. Then the strain began to show, says journalist and podcaster Ed Campbell

“Brexit hasn’t worked only because we didn’t do it badly enough” is quite a policy position.

We all know what the headlines would be-and rightly so!
And you wonder why people are so aware of crimes committed by asylum seekers or black or brown people?
Because the headlines scream it from the rooftops
Yet this white guy barely gets a mention and it’s given an “he’s a science nerd” spin

For ‘adverts’, see also: ‘hospitals’, ‘the Cabinet’, ‘kindergartens’, ‘the England football team’ and, of course, ‘the country’. The only way you can miss this is deliberately. And just watch them try.

The old political duopoly is dead. Both the Tories and Labour are polling consistently below 20%. Reform are killing the Tories and the Lib Dems, Greens and Plaid are taking the progressive vote away from Labour. New progressive alignments are needed and most of all we need a fair electoral system.

Off the top of my head, there have been four egregious examples of weapons grade public racism in the last couple of weeks - Jenrick; the Express hack; Captain Concrete & the Reform woman. The way they are treated by employers, punters & wider media, will directly influence how much more we see.

The Caerphilly result is what we need to see everywhere at the next election: people coordinating to vote tactically for parties which seek a fairer, kinder, greener country.
Pushing out both those who have betrayed our trust AND those who seek to exploit that betrayal.
