And you may find yourself living in a thatched-roof hut And you may find yourself living in the Holy Roman Empire And you may find yourself negotiating with your lords And you may find yourself in a beautiful hall, with a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"

A question that I haven't heard a good answer to: if cutting migration by a third in a year hasn't changed the narrative on it at all - what would make you think cutting it by another third (or half] would?

I think it's time to admit that the Tories are absolutely in their death spiral, I just don't see how they can return to being the dominant right-wing party, especially given that we're likely to see Reform hit 30% in a national opinion poll coming out of these elections.

FPTP boneheads love to cite "it keeps extremist parties out of parliament" as a reason for its existence as a far right party frogmarches to the threshold of acquiring enough votes to approach "government forming" party status and i think anyone who ever used that as a justification needs swirlied

Yeah, I’m not sure hours and hours of rolling on the early results gives people the best impression of local elections now they count in the day. Given I don’t think media will wait for results before picking the narrative, I do think there should be a strong push to reinstate overnight counting.
