I remember studying - twenty years ago - how several electoral systems in major Western democracies were deliberately designed to keep the political extremities out of parliament. For decades there has been a deep European complacency about the rise of the far right.

@waterstones.bsky.social saddened to see a store in Manchester with a new typeface on the store. Even my teenage lad who spotted it first made a negative comment on how unclassy it was compared to the traditional one. I hope it's not rolling out nationally?

Jammie Dodger, Fox’s Crunch Cream, Pink Wafer. I can’t believe Nice (definitely NOT Nice) has made it into the selection.

Bourbon, digestive, hobnob. Close contenders are ginger nut and rich tea. Nice, jammie dodger, custard creme, and pink wafer can go do one!
