It was the second ever religiously motivated murder of a Jew in the UK since after their expulsion by Edward I.

There was a terrorist attack on a synagogue last week, what are you talking about declining?

Good this. The thing is that Macmillan could be a one-nation Tory because British capitalism then was working for millions. Today it is not. That removes the economic base of one-nation Toryism.

It’s 2050 and a teen girl is torrenting a .tar.gz file of all the consciousnesses of all the tech bros who uploaded themselves into the cloud in a bid for immortality and modding them into The Sims 4

surely the point of being a digital native and being Online is to be able to sniff out stuff like this

not sure the BBC gets to put this on our people

I just mistyped β€˜which’ and auto-correct offered me β€˜feuchtwanger’. I’m not even joking.

The two of you actually look quite similar, at least in that photo, has anybody ever said that?

We need way more empty houses. What sort of an idiot thinks we can't build enough homes to house people and also have some spare?

It's never the comms. Labour's comms is grey because in the absence of a clear strategy for what the government wants to achieve, no-one can defend or articulate what the government says in an interesting or exciting way.

This is why I’m extremely skeptical of any attempt to add β€˜ideological diversity’ to academia, despite thinking that there are fields where some version of it would genuinely epistemologically healthy: I simply do not believe that modern conservatism actually can supply people who are not this:

I'm actually a truther on this. No it wasn't. They were cattle ranchers, some people ran some canning factories and ports and they built a nice downtown, where's the rest? They had none of the supply chain or development of Oz or even the Western Cape. It's just Angus Maddison's dodgy data again.

after careful study, I believe only people born between 1975 and 1995 should be allowed to use the internet

Well....This is not how it works in the UK. Which is maybe good! But I think a normal person would feel it was defamey, as normal language has it.

The authoritarian menace has arrived And so has the backlash β€” but the resistance needs to be smarter

Yglesias makes the case that preventing a full authoritarian takeover hinges entirely on Democrats retaking the Senate in 2026; the House isn’t enough. Hence the entire ballgame is how to win uneasy Trump voters in even vaguely gettable GOP states, ie Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Maine, Florida. 1/2

I really don't know what to do about a situation where a plurality of the group that (rightly!) takes up most government spending thinks that it is unrepresented in politics.

If a news organisation is making -200% margin after five years, it is not a commercial operation and should be assumed to have a different purpose.

"Was stabbed" would you mind being a good student of english and turn that into an active sentence? Then elaborating on what was happening when the police arrived.
