Whatever your politics Keir Starmer has clearly had a very good week. Winning lots of pundit plaudits at least. Bigger question is does it really register? Big picture is - and I suspect will remain - economy and public services.

New from Ipsos. Lack of confidence in Britain's main two parties laid bare. 6 in 10 not confident in Labour on economy / plan for Britain. But Tory numbers even worse. More than two-thirds lack confidence in Tory party. www.ipsos.com/en-uk/almost...

As a rule, people obsess over every little thing Trump does too much. But movement tonight on Ukraine and European security more generally is genuinely a very big deal.

Recent Ipsos polling shows challenge faced by Badenoch / Tories. When you ask about the brand of party leaders, Farage has a clear one, leads on strength, personality, understands Britain's problems. Badenoch? Nowhere. No particular brand at all www.ipsos.com/en-uk/nigel-...

The presidential power to randomly pardon people for crimes that may or may not have been committed is wild. Feels completely at odds with the idea the US President is supposed to explicitly not be a monarch.

If you think this is something wait until Musk turns on Trump.

The thing is Farage isn’t going to stand down as leader of Reform, the king isn’t going to dissolve parliament, Starmer isn’t going to call an election. This is all crackers. Quite entertaining though. Musk is losing it.

Musk calls for MPs to have confidence vote in Starmer. Shows his ignorance of the system. Labour have 402 MPs!

Don’t think people have quite grasped how existential Reform U.K. could be for the Conservative Party. Farage is simply bigger than any Tory politician they can offer (Johnson aside?) and on any issue that motivates the right Farage can just say ‘you had 14 years’…
