America (and the UK) don’t look at who did it, they ask: Who do we want to fuck up and how do we claim they did it.

I agree, but also, I don’t.
I write on platforms offering content for free. I don’t make any money from it. Without images to accompany content, nobody clicks. Smart titles help, but don’t cut through like an image (however shit). I’d love to pay, but web readers don’t. Need one to fund the other.

The guy that did it also did a fantastic UK show called Utopia. It’s around ten years old, but hasn’t dated at all. If you can find it, not only is the soundtrack incredible, the show is too. It’s the basis of the American version, but much, much better.

He knows his plans will damage the US economy (they cost far too much) & have knock on effects that will cost & cause even more damage once implemented. His solution, take the global economy down too, create an even playing field, tell Americans everyone’s economy is broken. Then, blame China.

Polls become less trustworthy & more inaccurate the closer a result gets. Polling is a competitive business, so when it’s close the companies play it safe & club together 1% - 2% around 50/50. Add to this who commissioned the poll & then the direction they swing falls where you’d expect. The💰 side.

I can feel it already. This election is going to be a shitshow.

The Daily Mail, a beacon of integrity! From spreading climate misinformation and exploiting press regs to being sued for privacy breaches by celebs, all while criticising others for the same. Let’s not forget former editor Paul Dacre’s EU subsidies while slamming the EU. Truly unmatched hypocrisy.”

I agree. Best pubs, coffee and food too.

I never would have imagined it like this behind the walls. I guess it’s because the back streets have a lot of Aussie type town houses, sitting on small city sized plots of land. So (in my head) it always seemed quite hemmed in. It looks huge compared to my expectations. Great post!

Wow, I’ve driven passed here for years often thinking (from the outside) “looks a bit shit”. Don’t judge a pool by its facade I guess.

It’s the creativity & originality of modern politics & spin doctors. Last year, Rishi Sunak took on the mantra “Stop the Boats”.
Follow local news in multiple contraries, particularly the UK, US, Can, Aus & NZ you’ll often see the political agendas are the same, normally only a few months apart.
