I remember talking to Fraser on Twitter years ago about this, too after a particularly racist piece from an American author. He dismissed me. But few people are as responsible for the rise in racism in the UK as Fraser Nelson, and he needs to own his shame

The mainstreaming of white ethnonationalism (aka racism) in the UK was, of course, wholly unrelated to the racist bilge Fraser Nelson published in the Spectator during his 15 years as editor.

Global crisis style note: What Trump is doing to Ukraine is not 'blackmail', which would be demand for payment under threat of exposure of compromising information*. This is demand for payment under threat of violence/refusal to protect from violence. The word is 'extortion'.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

Labour has a real counterattack opportunity if they’re brave enough to take it. More spending, both for public services + defence, using the need to prep the UK for war to justify breaking fiscal rules/tax pledges. Be unequivocal in calling those seeking to undermine the UK traitors and quislings.

One thing this little bleat from Chad “Damp Little Britches” Mizelle demonstrates is the duality of Trumpism: it’s about simultaneously being (1) a tough truth-telling masculine elbow-thrower and (2) as fragile as a porcelain goose. Bullies who can dish, but weep at the slightest pushback. Losers.
