It doesn’t matter where you live, or how salient your constituency is. The story is the same. Focus on voters and what they want. Put your hex-map of the battle for British politics away. This is not Risk, where you are placing all your troops in Indonesia or Kamatchka to defend at the margin. 16/n

You don’t raze entire towns and cities street by street with controlled demolitions and bulldozers for any military objective. You do it because the aim is to wipe those places out of existence forever, and it’s not like they’ve been hiding this.
Inside Gaza, BBC sees total devastation after two years of war
With endless rubble and destroyed streets as far as the eye can see, any plans for Gaza's future are a far cry from where it is today, writes Lucy Williamson.

Also it is just so deeply corrosive not least because it exists in such an already corroded body politic.

Not doing anything about that, in fact deepening it, is a choice a Government with a huge majority just doesn't have to make.

In addition to everything Dylan says in this thread, it’s just a bit tragic for *a government four years from an election* to be saying “they hate him more than us“. That just shouldn’t be your focus four years out!

The crucial bit of this tactical 'only Labour or Reform can win here' VI poll, though, is that Labour and Reform would be tied.

Not enough Lib Dem or Green voters are (right now) prepared to tactically vote for Labour to offset the number of Tories willing to tactically vote for Reform.

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....

Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.

It's time for Proportional Representation.

Call them cunts and tell them they get nothing. Spit in their stupid faces. Put extra Asians in the Christmas adverts and explicitly say you're doing it to fuck them off. Tell them *no* for once Jesus actual Christ lads. Not "this is unworkable" or "this is expensive". Just no.

The worldview requires that there be external and internal enemies and soft traitors who must all be disciplined by hard men doing purifying violence. You cannot say "look we got rid of the enemies for you, are you happy now?" That fully, fundamentally misunderstands everything going on here.

As we have been saying: Keir Starmer could personally machine gun refugees in the channel and *it still wouldn't be enough* because the entire point of the fascist worldview is to rage against the external and internal enemies of the people and the soft traitors who enable them.

BBC headlines these days are literally clickbait Tory propaganda. Lazy propaganda at that. "The NASTY COMMUNIST drove a CAR instead of a bicycle to the FIELDS OF WILTSHIRE. HYPOCRITE!"

A GB News host tells viewers that Sarah Pochin made "a very good point in a very clumsily way" and suggests it's time to "stop apologising to these people"...

If you advertise on GB News, this is what you're aligning with...

Lots of questions for Mamdani on his views on Gaza and Palestine.

Zero so far for Cuomo who volunteered to be a lawyer for an ICC-indicted war criminal.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?
A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable. " Today in @TheFP our @Olivia_Reingold talks to the cops who say they will walk if Zohran Mamdani is elected in November:”

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
