Performative cruelty and pandering to those on a vile platform run by a neo-fascist billionaire.
Wowzers, I get stick for criticising this government.
Looks like they're only gearing up their far right fandom.

“The Motability scheme was set up to protect the most vulnerable. Not to subsidise the lease on a Mercedes Benz,” Reeves says.
Misleading and nasty in equal measure.

So much of our politics revolves around catering to the emotions of people who become furious when someone else isn't suffering as much as they think they should
The restriction on car makes in Motability is a perfect and horrible example of Government By Vibes. it saves no money, it helps absolutely nobody, all it does is makes a few cruel and angry people feel better while disadvantaging people with mobility needs.

I've been chasing British Airways for nearly a year for 2 refunds they owed me, after they charged me 3 times for the same flight!
Finally, after threats and all sorts of nonsense, I got the money!
Never give up!

If you're a gun lover, you're not on the left.
What do you do when you’re a gun-loving leftist who doesn’t fit into mainstream American gun culture?

Ireland awfully indisciplined in the first half, but the Boks had zero wit and imagination-only brute force.
Dreadful game, and sure, the Boks won, but they were really poor.

Look folks, it's really, really simple.
Either we find our way to ecosocialism, or we're going to be ruled like serfs under a hereditary plutocracy gorging itself on everything good that's still up for grabs as the overheated, over-polluted world dies under our feet.

Important - in a global order in which international rules are losing importance, one part of the emerging replacement is this neo-royalist approach involving interlinked states and companies. Once again, put away the deglobalisation simplisms.
1/This week has seen a blitz of what looks like corruption sandals: Saudi development deals for US military tech, Pakistani payments to Trump insiders for tariff relief, Swiss gold bars for a trade deal. Far from a payoff, this is a reordering of internat'l system.
