'Alarm clock Britain' is remarkably hackneyed, cliched and - frankly - dull - phraseology from someone who is meant to be good at this stuff.

Dutch anti-Muslim populist Geert Wilders goes full Trump, claiming on X after he lost the election that there are reports of vote fraud. Also claimed the election authority was not neutral. Tearing down the pillars of Dutch democracy. nos.nl/l/2588722
Gemeenten wijzen aantijgingen Wilders over stemgesjoemel van de hand
Wilders stelt op sociale media dat het "berichten regent" van verdwenen of ongeldig verklaarde stemmen. Experts noemen het trumpiaans.

Increasingly I think the point of a wealth tax is not to raise money but to create space for raising income tax. The lethal thing in politics is when the compliant middle class feels like they have been taken for mugs; if you want to get money out of them, someone else needs to pay more too.

I'm always quite sceptical of claims like this. The main barrier to data-led campaigns in Britain is the availability of data on registered voters, not the tech to analyse it

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.
VANCE: No, George, I sai--
STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back
