He’s grand as a court scribe for Westminster intrigue. Not for tonight.

If it builds on best practice, it could be a game-changer. My recent experiences (same-day GP appt via online triage, appointments and letters via My Care) have been extremely positive (if I ignore the health reason why I've needed the services in the first place...)

It could also, by the way, contain a constantly updating version of this chart...

This from Ashcroft yesterday was interesting, in as much as any hypothetical polling is interesting. The fact Reform and Tory voters were near-identical on this Q (a priori, I’d have expected Reform voters to be a little more on the ‘less likely’ side of the ledger).

Jon - is it not possibly helpful for Die Linke this is resolved now, as otherwise they are faced with a dilemma on how to vote? Or would they have hoped they could negotiate looser language so debt wasn’t ringfenced for defence?

There are research methods that involve tracking mobile phone app usage – I think Ipsos do it – that could be used to understand and track political attitudes and behaviour. Though I’m not sure they would tell you what people are seeing on eg TikTok, just the amount of mins spent on the app a day..

Agree there’s key differences. A rawness lacking, too conceited to have ‘political’ impact? Either Doing Politics (Nish Kumar pod) or Not Doing It. And also still skewing older (lots of grads in their 30s listen to this podcast stuff in UK, and they’re not aiming for the YouTube streamer market).

Lessons für #Grüne & #SPD: Der Erfolg der #Linken zeigt, dass gerade viele junge Wählende es schätzen, wenn eine Partei in der Kommunikation an zentralen sozialen Forderungen festhält statt in den migrationspolitischen Überbietungswettbewerb einzusteigen.
