The PM is sacrificing UK growth to appease the US administration.

Is this the problem with modern football punditry/journalism. He could be amazing so we put him 5th. But also he cant be judged right now ( even though we judged him 4 months ago) football is almost becoming a caricature of itself.

“Turn the next election into a choice between Labour and Reform and rely on everyone voting Labour to block Reform” is a bad tactic to start with.
But it’s a *terrible* tactic when you do absolutely nothing to oppose Reform while in government.

3 parties are competing for the racist vote.
If we don’t show that we outnumber them, our country is going to be won by them.
& all they want power for is to continue enriching the rich & blaming the poor while the world burns.

Your regular reminder that over a lifetime, people born in 1956 will each receive on average £291,000 more from the welfare state than they paid in, compared to £132,000 for people born in 1996 (h/t Resolution Foundation)
Just something to consider next time you hear “I’ve paid in all my life…”

Honesty and good story telling required. But that also has to be based on some kind of understanding of the world, the policy problems, the complex trade offs. Populists don't need that, serious politicians do.
Labour's immigration announcement today is a reflection of the paucity of honest debate by BOTH political parties over the last decade on this issue.
Labour has never made a counter-argument, or been honest about economic cost of immigration curbs, so it's stuck making Tory/Reform arguments 1/n
