Me, in the FT, on the problem politicians - and especially this government - have with short and long term demand of voters... www.ft.com/content/820c...
What do we want? Everything. When do we want it? Right now!
It turns out that we voters may be to blame for the UK’s short-termism

I passed my Ph.D. viva! Thank you so much for everything, Wolfgang Rüdig and @zacdgreene.bsky.social! And a big thank to my examination committee — Prof. Bob Mattes, Dr. Eftichia Teperoglou, and Dr. Gabriela Borz — for such a thoughtful, constructive, and genuinely enjoyable discussion!

Did you know that a group of owls is called a “parliament of owls”? Some argue this name derives from owls being associated with wisdom. Others argue, perhaps less charitably, that it is because owls rarely meet in groups - and historically, parliaments were rare, too. 🦉

Those intra- party transfers are fascinating. Intra-party loyalty is gone. These are two parties in a de facto merger

Quick analysis of today's division suggests that MPs from areas more supportive of assisted dying were more likely to vote in favour

Division list from votes.parliament.uk/votes/common...

Constituency opinion from Electoral Calculus estimates for Humanists UK humanists.uk/2024/10/16/n...
Scatter-plot showing constituency support for assisted dying on the horizontal axis, and MPs' vote on the vertical axis. The trend line slopes gently upwards, from predicting low probability of voting 'Yes' at 50% support, to around two-thirds probability of voting 'Yes' at 80% support.

I guess that’s a question for @profdansmith.bsky.social and @shane-martin.bsky.social, who’ve worked extensively on dynasties in Ireland and abroad:

– onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...
– journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Really relevant graph from their LSQ paper. ⤵️
The bar chart illustrates the proportion of political legacies (nonlegacy, noncabinet legacy, and cabinet legacy) among candidates, TDs (Teachtaí Dála), government-party TDs, and cabinet ministers in Ireland from 1944 to 2016. Cabinet ministers have the highest proportion of cabinet legacies, while nonlegacy representation decreases progressively from candidates to cabinet ministers.

I was delighted to be in Strasbourg earlier this week to speak with MEPs from the European People's Party Group, offering reflections on navigating the challenges affecting the core of parliamentary democracy. Thanks to François-Xavier Bellamy MEP and Group Vice Chair for the opportunity.
