Finally getting stuck in to properly reading this report - would seriously recommend. There's a richness of insight here on some really critical (yet nuanced) electoral questions that you'll struggle to find elsewhere (in the public domain, at least) and it goes well beyond questions about Reform.

Have a guess: Reform, Conservative or Labour MP?

Looking forward (not at all actually) to Labour's reaction to the hammering they're probably going to get. Only mitigated by the fact they aren't defending much.

I feel like it’s being overlooked that a policy based on the idea that kids are autistic, not trans, is essentially saying that autistic kids don’t know themselves enough to consent to healthcare. This is making a loophole that will make autistic kids exempt from Gillick competence. It’s dystopian.

The thing is, Poilievre is actually a really good politician imo. Easily one of the best ‘New Right’ communicators. But he made one absolutely fatal mistake: getting too close to Trump. Sucked in by the online energy for him among his base. Many such cases!

My warmest congratulations to Mark Carney. Voters in Canada have elected a Liberal government on a mandate to combat Trump's dangerous populism. Across the globe, it is liberals who are taking the lead in standing up for prosperity, security and democracy in the face of Trump, Putin and the rest.

The last three months of this becoming first possible and then likely should not obscure how *obscene* a bag fumble it has been from the Conservatives. Genuinely one of the all time great implosions? Absolutely generational, it’s hard to remember one like it
