This is no longer about saving the corner building. It's lost. All the SFRS can do is try to prevent what would be a catastrophic spread to Glasgow Central Station.

There's a point in this where he is clearly trying to argue that married women should not have finances independent of their husbands and also that they shouldn't be allowed to get divorced and you do basically realise this is a war against all of modernity, but particularly women.
There seems to be widespread denial about just how extreme Reform is
From setting up a British ICE to ‘undoing the sexual revolution’ this is an extreme policy platform - and one clearly inspired and influenced by Trump’s US and its outriders
One of the greatest bollard walks in history.

People with the authoritarian personality have a natural, instinctive hostility and contempt toward those groups that their society codes as weak or marginalized. Almost always, women are at the top of that list, but so are minorities, queer people, immigrants, and others.
Part of what the authoritarian does to reaffirm their place in the hierarchy is to kiss up to those above them and shit on those below them.
This is crucial: inflicting cruelty on those weaker than them, lower than them, is how the authoritarian self-soothes, cements their place in the universe.
Just going to leave this here

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

I'm no political strategist but has anyone in Labour considered *not* alienating any huge chunk of their base? I just feel like they tried alienating the left and the centre left and the public sector workers and the academics, and none of those things worked great, so maybe give my idea a whirl?
Most white people have a grandparent or great grandparent who was once a five year old immigrant. That's what this country used to be about. Somehow, when it comes to people of color, we've lost sight of that entirely.

It's very obvious that if any other prominent politician had been so racist in school that it's haunted 20+ former classmates ever since, it would be treated like a bigger deal. We should examine how and why "still being very racist four decades later" is acting as Farage's protective shield.
I stand like Ali stood over a fallen Liston whenever I successfully drain pasta into a colander without pouring any into the sink
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥
Fewer workers. Fewer international students. More people leaving.
A "step in the right direction" according to the PM.
Impossible to take PM/govt seriously on growth if they are deliberately reducing it (and making the fiscal position worse) *as a matter of policy*.

My hot take is that IHT makes absolutely no sense. "Inheritance" is one word.
It's disappointing when you watch a high school basketball game and no one turns into a werewolf.
On Nigel Farage's racism, of course it is possible that someone can believe one thing when they're a teenager and something completely different when they're an adult.
But where is the evidence that has happened in this case?
Instead all of the evidence points in the complete opposite direction

Minority representation on TV causes outrage There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television. Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg." She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce." "I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough. There are too many people with angry red faces on television.”
Gotta love Private Eye.
Always cuts through the crap.
