I am concerned about silence of gvt ministers & others to defend basic anti-racism norms in last 6 weeks. They seem muted by their anxious inability to separate legitimate politics from prejudice & hate.

Anti-violence norms - civil war is inevitable, so support violence - really should be simpler.

🔎 NEW INVESTIGATION 🔎

Reform has been exploiting fears around attacks on women to stoke hate against migrants. We investigated their flawed statistics and the group with far-right links that have helped spread its narrative.

BREAKING: ICE is sending Russian dissidents back to Russia. When the dissidents arrived in Russia, the Russian authorities were given documents relating to their asylum applications in the US which under US law are confidential. This seems to be part of a secret agreement between Trump and Putin.
‘I escaped a Russian prison — only to end up in an American jail’
Dozens of Russian dissidents have been expelled from the US and forcibly returned to Russia with the co-operation of immigration authorities

New post just out:

"The Great VAT Panic"

The claims made by the right-wing press about VAT on private school fees were wildly wrong.

Why? What are the lessons about about (how not to) run a lobbying campaign? And what can government learn?

A lot of media are covering Europe’s heatwave 🔥 but few are connecting it to the climate crisis.

Tools like the Climate Shift Index show this heatwave is up to 5x 😱 more likely because of climate change. That context matters.

profrosiecamp.bsky.social
Yes, some leaders magnify the gap by exploiting genuine insecurity with simple solutions & a scapegoat, this time women. Mainstream politics is failing to tackle the crises faced by the youngest generation, that might explain the attraction of the ‘far’ left to young women & far right for young men

Also we should be careful not to inflate the difference between gen z men and women. As you show Sam it varies over time and across countries and the gap is widening from the historic trend but it’s not a chasm bristoluniversitypressdigital.com/downloadpdf/...

Great piece Sam! My hunch is the acceleration in young women’s move left in many nations is driven by similar forces to the backlash against gender equality by gen z men. Both more pessimistic about their futures but gender stereotypes and social media push them to different diagnoses and solutions.
