I'm sure this is correct and in Spain it's being done but with no detectable positive effect on polling. Soc dem parties in power shd do soc dem things bc they are the right things to do, if the voters prefer racism and socially and economically regressive policies, that's on them

Catalan govt to give substantial extra financial support to ppl in the final stages of MND over and above what the national state provides. This will be one of the first things cut if the right takes power "unviable", "they'll soon die anyway" we'll be told

I recommend this thread again. In the light of comment elsehwere I suggest we not confuse a possible spike in Iranian national feeling with a much less likely spike in support for the regime. If there are both I bet the latter will last about a week after the ceasefire

Good piece on the ambiguities of being Irish in England archive.ph/CIOtw As a friend said to me the other day, we're the wrong sort of post-colonials

Árabes israelíes están en todos los niveles del país: justicia (hasta el Supremo), política (un partido islamista en el último gobierno) y FDI, donde ha habido generales árabes. Extraña forma de “apartheid”. Cuantos jueces, generales y diputados musulmanes hay en España?

the real leaders have to be Larajani and Vahidi, the latter directly responsible for the mass murder of Buenos Aires Jews.

considering the level of innovative business and human resources practices (he said carefully) behind the scenes, and the murderous backroom infighting, it's a wonder the first team isn't in a far worse state

I'd have insisted on Raphina for the penalty. The messi comparsions are very premature but he has character as well as talent

I think the unrelenting intensity of a good premier league side was hard for Barca to cope with, la Liga is more; slow, slow, quick!

Barca, especially Lamine, played poorly. But at the critical moment he assumed all the responsibility and saved the game for his team. Mark of a great player

Rules out an election this year, not least bc the last dose of the EU recovery fund comes in December and why risk leting those c**** spend it. Well, that's what he thought, not what he said

Loads of interesting details in these interviews; the CO of the base that launched the first attack is entirely respectful of the Iranians, and the Israelis are pressing their material and especially their human resources to the very limit

Dead IR experts, I think Trump's admin developed a new theory of international relations - degeneracy. Don't thank me.
