Gosh, Alain Delon. I mean, Marianne's dress is shedding feathers all over the floor and she hasn't noticed and probably doesn't care.

In the end, if your MP job had to be your only job, you’d soon see who was dedicated to public service and who was dedicated to themselves.
After years of grift and dishonour, it’s time to stop relying on the ‘good chap’ theory and start imposing some ‘just in case you’re not’ rules.

Yeah, so this was funny. But also:
1. This is the almost definitional exercise of free speech.
2. When the far right get upset they burn buildings with people inside and storm legislatures intent on overturning legitimate elections. If they made jokes instead, that would be fine.

Pretty clear that the biggest non-integrated community in the UK is the sizeable number of Reform voters who are out and out racists. And okayish with pogroms.
🧵What do the public think about the riots and those taking part in them? A reflection of legitimate concerns Or the actions of far right thugs? I've written for @FT today on new More in Common polling and focus group research into Britain & the riots www.ft.com/content/4645...

Yes absolutely, this is a great idea
I appreciate that some people may not be overly enthusiastic about this, but genuinely think this is a good move from Labour. The world is changing and it is essential that children have the knowledge and tools to identify reality from fiction online.
