Aiui this is a regional thing too. Give people in London cheaper rent and they can spend more money on Warhammer made in Nottingham, and also on divorce lawyers
UK’s problem is that we don’t have enough disposable income, which you can fix by things getting cheaper or by people earning more money, and also either one of those things makes the other easier.

A source close to the PM responded that he was personally committed to ending small boat crossings, because "there's nothing progressive about progressive supranuclear palsy"

"my mother died in labour, turning blue in the process, and you want to help elect a Blue Labour government?!?!"
There are some truly unhinged bits in the piece about Glasman, as to be expected when dealing with Glasman, but seriously what the actual? That's...one hell of a conflation of terminology.

You see this also with the “we have to reduce immigration or racism will get worse”. The average person who thinks immigration is too high does not think that makes gutter racism ok and does not agree with, e.g. “let’s do a Partition scale ethnic cleansing in the UK”.
Sorry to keep banging on about it but it's literally *they are on Twitter and think it's the majority view*
This is pretty striking and makes me wonder exactly what Labour have been up to in making policy seemingly in response to / fear of the former rather than the middle group.

Most of the public know what’s going on with flags on lamp posts.
Crucially for the government, 78% of its 2024 voters think anti-minority sentiment is involved in flying England flags (versus just 15% who think it’s just a national pride thing).
They are getting the politics of this all wrong.

Why do people think England flags have been raised on lampposts?

A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.
Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

Imagine, if you wish, the manager of a football club shouting at the fans that parking the bus and general hacking and shit-housery all over the pitch is, unfortunately, the only viable plan to win games. And then you look up the league table, and the club is 14pts off the first Europa League spots

The basic problem with the temporary refugee status policy - especially one lasting up to 20 years - is it leads to very few removals (based on Denmark's experience) but does significantly worsen integration.

Defence of Labour asylum policy reveals backsliding on racism
Home secretary’s framing of failures is partly low politics, but also a result of ministers’ poor approach to race relations

A thing I got completely wrong is I thought Tony Blair's "the reason for defeat is nearly always because progressives don't 'own the future" was just him going 'let's have a hopey-changey bit for the base', but this government has made me realise it is 100 per cent true.
I hate the ‘more money in your pocket’. It’s so outdated and sounds like we’re still in 1987 with pay packets from the factory!

BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.
