Growth is slowing, this is bad news for the economy and possibly bad news for your pocket, if the government decides to put taxes up to pay for the shortfall. @goodmorningbritain.bsky.social

Conservatives need to resist short term, reactionary policy proposals.
The Conservatives are set to announce they would ditch the net zero 2050 target. As a flagship policy to launch their policy review it isn’t without some risks. Not least as the policy splits their remaining 2024 vote, with Tory voters narrowly more likely to support it than not

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

For the #BurnsNight crew: Sonnet on the death of Robert Riddell

NO more, ye warblers of the wood! no more;

Nor pour your descant grating on my soul;

Thou young-eyed Spring! gay in thy verdant stole,

More welcome were to me grim Winter’s wildest roar…

John Curtice tells The Times that Reform need to be much broader than immigration to avoid a ceiling effect from their polarising reputation. James Frayne suggests it is a general reputational risk [that hampers their reach, a key FPTP issue]
