UK political discourse is a case study for how much someone considered a nice chap with good manners can still get away with.

Have to say I think some of the takes about Danny Kruger representing the opening of the floodgates for Tory defections are underselling quite how extremely Kruger’s ideological views are, even within the current Tory party.

Of all the weird things going on in Hollywood, the commonly held belief that award shows shouldn’t celebrate the winners is one of the strangest.

there is an extremely well funded and dedicated international propaganda campaign to convince people that everyone is actually a racist and they should join the club, and it's a handful of rich extremists bankrolling all of it

Dear Morgan McSweeney, the biggest objection most of have with far right thugs marching all over London is categorically not that they might not vote Labour.

Might be nice if the government issued some kind of statement making it clear that they won’t tolerate or cater to the fascists rioting in our streets.

Keep thinking of arguments for why it would be completely insane to dump a prime minister with a huge majority just 14 months in, and also about how if he's not going to say a single word in opposition to the kind of shit we saw today then I no longer feel convinced by any of those arguments.

Some day I would like to see a proper analysis of how the entire political class concluded that social liberalism is very unpopular and social conservatism is popular, despite the fact successive governments keep getting more unpopular as they double down on socially conservative policies

The flip side is also that by focusing on net migration, the UK counts its own brain drain of young talent *as a positive* in its own numbers. It's like the economic version of a death cult

I pretty regularly get to watch companies making international moves and investments and it is *frikken weird* how the UK keeps actively sabotaging them bringing investment and jobs to the UK because of myopia on immigration. Utterly surreal and perverse

Lascaux Cave in France contains paintings from the Paleolithic era, 17,000 to 22,000 years ago. The paintings depict people, animals and abstract symbols and you couldn't do them today because of woke.
