Yet more “give them what they want so they don’t get what they want!”

How in the world are people not seeing what’s happening here?

Jenrick, Farage, Lowe and every other right winger is absolutely going to be celebrating this.

The president’s obsession with the Somali community and me is really unhealthy and creepy. He is trying to deflect from his failures and sinking approval ratings. Sorry, Trump, we all see through your attempts to hide from your broken promises.

A very worthwhile listen.
Two scandals for the price of one:
1) The Nathan Gill case,
2) Its under reporting in the mainstream media & the aversion of our ruling class to properly investigate wider Russian interference.
We should all be extremely concerned about this.

Most people don't personally care about immigration or crime. The frenzy we see is mainly the media driving clicks.

The only thing most people seem to care about is the cost of living.
'Immigration doesn't bother me but it seems to bother everyone else' – Everyone.

This is what happens when the media runs away with Hard Right narratives.

One of the reasons the right wing hate London - my immediate neighbours are Chinese, Romanian, Bengali, British, Jamaican, & Nigerian, and we have 2 Japanese, a Brit, and an Aussie in this house. Everyone gets along just fine. Reality proves that everything the right wing say is a lie.

A serious centre left party would undertake serious efforts to understand what the Corbyn moment and the current Green surge tell it about its voter base. An unserious party would retreat into a comfort zone wherein everyone to their left is a "Trot" and success always lies in pandering rightwards
Quite remarkable to see how many in Starmer's party are so trapped in a kind of Corbyn era PTSD that they can't grasp the kind of serious challenge the Greens represent rather than the 1980s flashback caricature of what Starmerites think the Left always will be.

New analysis shows:

That there are now more people alive in the UK that voted Remain in 2016 than those who voted Leave in 2016.

The "will of the people" expressed by direct vote in 2016... has changed.
The majority opposed to Brexit has reached eight million

We cannot trust the US anymore. I don't think we can trust anything they do or say.
The US is incredibly dangerous for Europe, Trump will side with Russia because Putin owns Donald Trump & his children's companies and holdings.

We in Europe need to defend ourselves.
