Prophetic . . .

What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and a-carrying signs
Mostly say hooray for our side

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away

The single biggest thing (in cost terms) I’ve changed my mind about is UK tuition fees. Dreadful system, need to scrap it.
This is clearly depressing and radicalising in a way a tax wouldn't have been.

It’s always fun hearing defecting MPs explain why they won’t be holding a by-election to check their constituents are happy with their new party.

Jenrick claims he was elected at the last general election based on his personal profile and politics.

Mike Johnson compellingly making the case for abolishing ICE ...
Mike Johnson: "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do"
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.

“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”

And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon.

interestingly to me, you can actually see the impact of this brief at oral argument rn

bc Idaho is now saying 'okay yes there is a history of de jure discrim against trans people, but it wasn't explicit like it was against Black people' which is...a v different position to be in, I think!
Importantly, the history of anti-trans discrimination isnt just history

The scholars' brief shows the link between a dark past that Amy Coney Barrett can no longer plausibly deny, and a darkening future that she & her conservative colleagues are helping to create

The utterly shameless & widely covered "report" out today, claiming net zero will "cost" £9tn is based on:

* Assuming free fossil-fuel energy, free petrol cars, free gas boilers, free gas power plants etc

AND

* Including climate damages in the "cost" of net zero

I kid you not, it is that stupid
🧵A political/media guide to the "truth" about net-zero

1) Add up costs to install & run a net-zero energy system
2) Pretend fossil-fuelled alternatives wld be free
3) Do say "eco zealots are bankrupting us"
4) Don't say "free cars if we scrap net-zero" cos it sounds ridiculous
5) That's it!

The question was not just in relation to the trial (otherwise it would have been worded differently), so what this poll proves is that the average Labour voter hasn't a clue what they are talking about in relation to puberty blockers, and shouldn't be making medical decisions for other people.
