During the US governors ball, the US Army Choir surrounded the MAGA leadership and sang: "Do You Hear The People Sing" The oligarchs didn’t even realize they were being protested. #3E #USprotest #EndOligarchy

Around 70-80 seats could end up getting decided by about 0.3% of the German vote. Surely the time has now come for electoral reform in Germany, and this is before getting into the hijinks of some FPTP seats being left vacant due to the abolition of overhang/levelling seats.

Drug overdose deaths outnumber road deaths by 3:1 in the UK yet both Labour and the Tories ignore the option to remove the market from organised crime and bring it under state control through legal regulation.

I wrote this on the most consistently terrible, and fatal, idea in centrist politics today. On Fanta, rebadging, and why attempting to win votes from fascists is morally disgusting and politically suicidal. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

There are no basic standards in the modern Tory party. Not of respectability, or intellectual consistency, or mortality. So it will now say anything - anything at all - if it echoes what that madman in the White House is doing.

So. Crushingly. Predictable. (As well as--if decades of comparative research is anything to go by--utterly illusory).

💥 NEW: Labour voters are *84%* for a youth mobility scheme... ...with only 6% against. What's to lose? In fact, they might even gain some of those 59% of Conservatives and 34% of Reform that support it too.

Here's what Elon Musk doesn't want you to know about how X is already interfering in UK politics. From @politico.eu

I don't understand it. Your main political rivals have driven or delivered the most colossal f***-up of a policy in our lifetimes. It's an open goal to call it out as a disaster and work to reverse it. Why keep pretending that everything is fine and your opponents aren't idiots? It makes no sense.

Ok, so the head of the Department of Government Efficiency has just given a nazi salute, and there's talk of concentration camps for the deportation of millions of illegal immigrants... What happens when the camps are full and the deportations are difficult? What does the efficient nazi suggest?

Young in their teens and 20s, especially men, are spending more time alone than in previous generations. They ""now hang out about as much as someone 10 years older than them did in the past." Interesting data from @jburnmurdoch.bsky.social www.ft.com/content/2305...

I asked 6 different AI: "If you were forced to choose one or the other, which would improve Britain's trading situation more: rejoining the Customs Union, or rejoining the Single Market. Make a clear case for your choice." All 6 picked the Single Market over the Customs Union. Samples below...
