I agree with this and also why I don’t think the two party system is as doomed as it seems - Reform as a project and a movement is totally, existentially, dependent on a 60 year old smoker. Without him, it does not exist.

Canadian Liberal activists 🤝 people who work in climate finance Absolutely stanning Mark Carney for reasons I don’t fully understand

Not only is this crass, it is highly significant. Radosław Sikorski is perhaps the most Atlanticist major politician in Europe. And this is how he is now being publicly treated by US/Musk. They do not want us to be their friends, they do not want us to be their allies.

I think everyone on both sides of the ocean needs to be clear in their heads that 1) 50% of individual Americans aren’t guilty of what’s happening 2) If it goes on like this, we’re genuinely sorry but we have to sanction your economy and militarily aid Canada in ways that will hurt you all

The Ukrainian government has a list of places where you can donate to the war effort here. I personally just donated $100: war.ukraine.ua/donate/ Slava Ukraini.

To state the obvious, the venn diagram of English people whose reaction to unreconstructed ethnonationalism is *not* “go fuck yourself”, and English people willing to elect someone who considers themselves foreign to political office, is… six people who all have interminable podcasts?
