Like the perfect Christmas present, something you never knew you wanted but now you can't live without.
What you people want is a map of all towns w>100k inhabitants in Sweden. Nothing north of Uppsala. The extra circle in Stockholm is just Sollentuna which really isn't an independent town.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

I'm incredibly pleased to have been asked to design the cover for the first Elf Traps release, Sunflowers in a Blue Sky

The only possible conclusion from these new policy announcments is they're not happy until that 13% is 0.

I've been working with Elf Traps on imagery for their upcoming releases. Amazing music

Getty vs Stability AI ruling is 'damp squib' that fails to create precedent
Getty Images has failed to set a precedent on AI training and copyright in its case against Stability AI in the UK.

I'm working on a new model/visualisation - ideally eventually interactive - where you can look at the political compass in terms of where voters 'perceive' parties to be in value space (arrows)/how 'competent' they perceive them to be and how that turns into voting intention/behaviour.

Maurice Glasman has made me agree wholeheartedly with George Monbiot. I'm still adjusting to this state of affairs.
After clashing with Maurice Glasman recently, I've come to realise just how pernicious he and his Blue Labour movement are. We could discuss his chumminess with Steve Bannon and JD Vance, endless pandering to the far right and evident hatred of the Labour left. But there's something even worse. 🧵

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

'Today, Nigel Farage said that all mice are gay and they're from space. We ask experts whether there is any truth in the claims'.
Nigel Farage appeared on the radio today and failed to back the scientific & medical advice given to pregnant women when it comes to taking paracetamol

He also suggested migrants were eating swans & carp

Yet again CPRE are claiming there's sufficient brownfield land and we don't need to build on any countryside. There are many reasons why this isn't correct 🧵

@drjennings.bsky.social @robfordmancs.bsky.social @mariosrichards.bsky.social apologies for this... But trying to find a tweet one of the political scientists I follow posted after the general election. It was a very succinct way of explaining polling that was obvious but had power in its clarity

I really don't think it should be tenable for Labour government ministers to have still remained mute about such a visible, vocal rise of racist abuse in our country by this rally on 13th September, being held by Tommy Robinson, with the proactive support of Elon Musk, the radicalised X owner

The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.
