It's no use pretending Russia can be appeased. No surrender can be forced upon Ukraine that will stop Russia waging war against the West.

There's no point acting as if the United States is still among the Allies. No pandering to Trump will stop him being Putin's puppet.

Remigration by stealth? The government’s settlement proposals will mean 10 or 15 years extra to settle - but are they designed to make people leave? The reforms combine with other policy changes to mean many people here would have no route to stay in/beyond 2030

Watch out for the, “All Republicans are bad but my Republican” voters. They are starting to come out of the closet. “He’s always been nice to me.” “It’s stupid to vote a straight ticket.”

They’re coming out for a reason.

Starmer is finally waking up to the threat of relying on Trump for our security. The PM should be personally leading negotiations to get us into the EU SAFE defence fund and adopt the @libdems.org.uk defence bonds for an urgent cash injection for our armed forces.

Indeed there was no part of my setting foot on UK soil that was uncontrolled. I’m bewildered at the lack of knowledge of the public that allows them to get away with this

Why are they allowed to get away with the ‘uncontrolled’ rhetoric? It’s a straightforward lie, a hideous dog-whistle.
Home Sec: "It is about managing what has been an uncontrolled wave of migration into the country. We have to consider the impact of no changes—if all these people were able to obtain settlement at five years, which is what the current rules would allow"

vividly remember, in the Corbyn Hell Years, seeing people on Twitter quite actively bonding over their joint hatred of me - trying to outdo each other in their meanness - and I just don't think it's possible to explain how weird and unpleasant it is, especially as someone who's....no-one
People don’t really understand the nature of the problem. It’s not lots of little random ankle-biter tweets. That’s annoying but whatever. It’s when hating you becomes this communal pursuit that exists separately from yourself. Like there’s an entire group of people working together to target you.
ignore it. why do you big accounts always complain? it’s like a celebrity complaining they get too much attention in the street. it comes with the territory. just ignore or mute those accounts. it seems you might have a kind of para social relationship back.

Yup.

Prediction markets are interesting only to the extent that they are increasingly:

a) Reported on in the same breath as actual news coverage which shapes public perception;

b) Creating perverse incentives for insiders and decision makers;

c) Gamifying really serious/sensitive issues.

Yes! Exactly, I’m agreeing, however it’s possible to see the reality of that and still feel sympathy for people forced to choose. Regardless, as you say, it’s a choice and trying to dodge the choice by staying under the radar is also a choice.

Again there are many reasons why someone might choose to naturalise. Perhaps you’re married to a Spanish person, perhaps you want the same nationality as your kids, perhaps your job requires it, who knows? So yeah I continue to sympathise with people forced to choose.

The reason I *can* live my life as if Brexit never happened is precisely because I am a dual national and a citizen of both the UK and the EU. If I had to give up one of those citizenships, I could no longer ignore the hideous mess Brexit makes of real lives. So, yeah, I sympathise.

It’s a huge shame you have to choose between the nationality of your birth and of your new home. But Brexit forces you into that choice, and now you’re being forced to come off the fence. You can’t have your cake and eat it. It’s another example of Brexit cakeism.

The Girdle Wearing Assistant to President Stephen Miller is supposed to be some kind of landlord so anyone who thinks for a moment that he believes a tax (tariff) increase isn't simply passed on to the tenant (consumer) is an idiot and a dupe.
