When the BBC covers, say, Xi critically should it also run a programme dedicated to the CCP’s achievements?

The SNP have now been in government for 18 years. It is baffling just how little people in England and in politics especially think about this and what it means.

I remember wondering the other day why there aren’t any good inspirational books about men having a mid life crisis and I regret that too.

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.
The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

Utterly bizarre to describe climate change policy as some kind of radical-left albatross.
The IRA contained precisely the kind of 'kitchen table' programs everyone says Democrats should focus on — and they're popular!
The problem was that Americans *didn't know* what the IRA was or who passed it.

Twitter (and then X) was never 'representative' in the sense that its user base skewed to the liberal-left, but the content that is now amplified on there has swung to the far right. This is giving a distorted signal of public opinion.

In short, the ANES data shows:
📉 Social media use is shrinking
💥 Twitter/X posting has moved ~50 points to the right
🧩 Platforms are splintering
🔊 Fewer people are talking — but those still talking are more politically extreme
