Very smart piece from Adam, particularly this summary at the end: "4 years ago [...] people were excited to go and vote for Sturgeon. To get to that position, she also had to do and say things which meant some people were excited to go and vote against her."

In Hamilton yesterday, I overheard a Labour canvasser begging someone not to vote, rather than vote SNP to stop Reform: novaramedia.com/2025/06/06/r...

Voters in Hamilton were - well, kinda bored. There is lots to learn here for the Left.

Totally unscientific, but I reckon I spoke to around 100 people in Hamilton and Stonehouse today. Only two told me they’d voted/be voting Reform. More told me they were voting against them. (see my thoughts on @novaramedia and @bellacaledonia tomorrow)

"Green party of England & Wales offers prospect -via a Zack Polanski leadership – that Greens will become the primary political party of the left in England. This would mean that, for 1st time in British history, the English left will be led by a party in favour of Scottish & Welsh independence."

Britain should obviously leave NATO - and the Five Eyes - while Trump is in the White House. The idea we should remain in a nuclear armed, intelligence sharing relationship with this US regime is very dangerous, and @zackpolanski.bsky.social is 100% right to want new arrangements.
