You might think that. I couldn’t possibly comment. Teaches British Politics. Interested in global politics. Needs to stop it with the “evidence shtick” (Stephen Bush). #Politics #LFC #History #Genesis
How are people coming to these conclusions? It’s fair enough judging whether Trump has changed the US. It’s happening in real time. People can decide based on what they see and hear. But being asked whether they view George Washington favourably or not is just weird.
If Britons had to write the letter of last resort to nuclear submarine commanders, detailing what they should do if the British government is destroyed, which order would they give? This needed a fifth option for Reform voters - it was a Russian attack, so quickly surrender.
I said “Burnham is just a rebadged Centrist Blairite. What did I say, Roy?” “You said Burnham is just a rebadged Centrist Blairite.”
Are there really people out there who can’t recognise the PM even when shown a photo of him?
The Daily Mail is asking its readers whether Britain should rejoin the EU. Give it a go… www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
“Moment of Reckoning” - which the Daily Mail has done much to encourage and little to dissuade.
I see Italy has finally given up on its unorthodox “let’s have a manager who also played The Wolf Man in 1941” plan.
Not sure what this tells us other than the bleeding obvious. People are hardly going to consider voting for the Greens if the party’s values don’t align with theirs or if they don’t like the party’s policies.
Farage won’t be happy, although this level of fragmentation amongst his opponents would offer the strong possibility of a Reform - Tory coalition in which he becomes PM.
After the midweek fixtures I would be surprised if any of the four teams below Arsenal and City reach 70 points. They are all too inconsistent, including my #LFC.
Another illustration of the difficulties Reform face in persuading Conservative voters to back their policies.
Interesting to see Reform voters thinking their party is more reliant on Farage compared to Labour voters. What would they do if he retired?
I was wrong when I claimed Brexit would be a major issue at the 2024 General Election. Neither Labour or the Tories wanted to talk about it. They will in 2028 / 2029.
@janetanderson.bsky.social I knew I had seen your name somewhere - on one of my bookcases.
