Very much me today

Green win shows progressive voters are now voting against Labour as well as Reform Gorton and Denton byelection shatters Labour strategy of neglecting its core base while focusing on Reform defectors

Following up some of my morning thoughts: "Labour’s basic electoral problem comes from the fact that left-leaning voters are indeed choosing to vote against rather than for parties. The problem is that progressives aren’t just voting against Reform. They are now actively voting against Labour."

Made a critical error by engaging in US food discourse. Never do it.

Going to show myself up here by saying I went there, lol.

One little contribution as a treat

I did respond, but I refuse to feed the discourse

Trump's second term is shaping up to be an all-time disaster purely in terms of *his* policy priorities absolutely collapsing and it will be interesting to see how and when this finally filters into the way it's covered by the media

Just did LBC about Starmer et al; made a good stab at it, I think!

“I am thou and thou art I” but with Clegg and Cameron.

Literally what I was about to post; I am bereft

Definitely, love stuff like that! (Even though I can hear my undergrad supervisor, a modern historian, crying)

It’s me being *hilarious* at my wedding (recollections may differ)

I’m also a fellow old; approaching 40 far too quickly

Oh, the worst thing about 9 is how slow the battles are 😬 but it’s very good otherwise! 8 has some terrible design choices but is fun (one of the worst plots in the entire series though)

Gordy will return in our hour of need, sod King Arthur

Exeter is the one place I’ve seen that has defeated Uber; they try every so often to break in, but the local taxi firm is so strong, it defeats all challengers.

FFIX is the best one as the way the party wins is by rejecting cynicism and nihilism whilst embracing community and active agency in resisting tyranny. Also just because generally it’s the best FF.

I am withering like dust

This is it I feel, but will see what happens with proper polling for the seat when Galloway’s lot is thrown into the mix

Kent will step in as a neutral arbiter for us to settle our differences

I was thinking this

Time for them to do it again
