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
I generally assume that political parties know what their constituencies think better than the rest of us do: they spend so much money on polling and focus groups.
But I would be *amazed* if they understood how viscerally they are loathed by young progressives for pushing trans people under a bus.

Iran Crisis: They Wanted Sovereignty. Just Not Like This
If anyone has ruined the special relationship, it's not Starmer- it's Trump
No legal basis. No clear objective. No exit. And much of Britainβs political class spent the week calling Starmer a coward for noticing.
Latest substack from me.

Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi | The dry and the wet burn together
The war launched against Iran by the United States and Israel is a war of choice and of hubris. There is scarcely even...
βThe certainties of the USβs stewardship of the βinternational rules-based orderβ have been deformed beyond recognition by the Gaza genocide but no alternative architecture has taken their place. Instead, thereβs a politics of gangster imperialism that has neither international nor domestic consentβ

Simple. 'They are professionals. We trust them.'
Result. World's best education.

Yesterday I saw a tractor spreading something in a field very near to our house. It was causing a dust. The field had been lying fallow for a few months but within the last 2 weeks there have been sheep grazing there. Oh I thought the sheep must have goneβ¦.. but no today the sheep were still there.
