The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Hi hello, the Toronto Sun's email is [email protected] in case you'd like to inquire as to how they feel about their Ottawa Bureau Chief making these kinds of statements about innocent women being shot by militarized thugs in the street! Let's make his weekend extra fun :)
AIER’s finest weighing in.

Westminster can override devolved governments. No sign of it though

A really partisan system would be PR with Wales as a single constituency. Labour would hold 15 seats or so out of 96...

But 15% might also be too low for regional top up seats under the old rules?

If you're looking for a partisan and anti democratic story in this election year, please do look to the levelling up fund shenanigans.

And the partisanship claim is absurd

And if Surrey County Council was elected for a one year term the same folks would say Labour is wasting money...

But former political science profs should know better than to fuel those conspiracy theories

As I said, if the goal was partisanship, the government would delay elections in Wales and London boroughs

Journalists are addicted to the Nazi pedobot platform. It's that simple. They're happy to pay for the hallucinating Nazi pedobot's upkeep because they simply cannot kick the habit.

Goodwin, who once counted as an election analyst, knows very well that the local election postponement and reorganisation isn’t partisan or anti democratic. It’s actually a mad policy from a purely partisan Labour perspective.

Does any of the rest of his claim make sense?

Surrey is being restructured, but are elections delayed? Not exactly a Labour stronghold anyway...

And Reform is predicted to surge there...

Yes but how many of those are there? What's the reason for delay? Any sign of delay in Wales or London boroughs, where Labour have a lot to lose?
