"In reality, he was already prime minister" would haunt me for the rest of my waking life. It would actually be better if AI had written it than to admit I made this mistake.

So, I do genuinely think this is worth reading both for the unintentional comedy and also for how even in his own defence, it becomes increasingly obvious how readily he just lies. spectator.com/article/ai-d...

So, not criticising Luke, but I think from a purely political perspective MPs should be linking this far more aggressively to the damage the Tories did to the public sector. You shouldn't require MP support to get you a GP appointment! Citizens advice should be helping with debt! 1600 cases is bad!

Fundamentally, this is downstream of the media and the right-wing never updating their priors on renewables so they're still mentally bucketed as: expensive, requiring subsidies, and relatively inefficient when largely speaking the opposite is true and will only become increasingly so.

People have memory holed quite how skinny our jeans were.

The last line is golden, frankly.

Honestly, given the reviews of the book I'd maybe give up and blame AI at this point.

Can't believe they got the guy who does slightly off Disney characters for ice cream vans

Get the catapult.

People criticise the Guardian but you just can't get this calibre of analysis from most papers.

Whiny. Whiny. Whiny.

And he still embezzles from Wayne enterprises!

This is also fundamentally the hallmark of most anti-trans thinking. It *feels* simpler to defer to ID and gender assigned at birth until you start to think about how we actually experience gender and being gendered on a daily basis and it suddenly becomes exactly as complex as when you started.

You do sort of have to give it to her for still finding ways to surprise even the seasoned Kemi watched.

Finding out that there's a local pub owner who is running for council as an independent because of his long standing beef with Yvette Cooper over, erm, business rates, is a real insight into the level even your average politically active person pays to politics.

A lot of people asking for further details, and the BBC have clarified that the now famous "we're just normal men, we're just innocent men" was about the January 6th rioters. Hacker was being worn as a hat by the Q-Anon Shaman at the time.

The thing is, I don't even think this is a matter of corruption? Kemi genuinely believes this stuff because she never updates her priors and is still psychologically stuck in 2012 when she decided green energy wasn't viable.

All else aside Blue Labour is just kind of cringe?

Great moment for those of us who still have no idea which one is Greg James, Nick Grimshaw or Scott Mills.

In fairness the personal conduct in question was providing uranium to the Ayatollahs.

Have a break in

Almost comically unserious.

Do you think he thinks he's being normal?

The "country night" we were at featured one man who dressed in a Native American outfit, including headdress... anyway, after he hit on her my friend she confronted him, he couldn't grasp that it was racist, and then his wife defended him saying "he has two costumes! Would you rather he was Mr T?"

An update on Lord Glasman

A lot of politicians can pursue bad policy that is good politics, or good policy that is bad politics, what sets Kemi apart is that she pursues bad policy that is also bad politics.

I have a bad feeling about this...

CENTCOM told me Iran keeps hitting their high-value assets so I asked how many they have and they said they just go to the Pentagon and get new ones afterwards so I said it sounds like they're just feeding high-value assets to the Iranians and then INDOPACOM started crying

Maximum Lethality Not tepid neutrality BUT FOR WHO, CHRIS KAMARA?

I genuinely think it would have been better for the US if the Maduro operation had been a disaster, because it going well definitely convinced them they were invincible.

If Labour's tactic on immigration was to "manage it better and talk about it less" then that's an even more embarrassing failure than I thought.

Whiny. Whiny. Whiny.
