"Liberal Femboycrats"

Look, I know the Tories are huffing glue, but genuinely what the fuck is going on over there.

The weird Andy Burnham Kirk song? Log off you sad weirdo.

Very funny to me, also, that "The Arsenal of Freedom" is the name of an episode in Star Trek TNG where autonomous AI weapons killed an entire civilization and there's a sales hologram still on the planet trying to sell them. it was originally a commentary in the sale of F-14 Tomcats to Iran(!)

As a professional military strategist, I just wanted to make sure everyone has a full understanding of the American strategy in Iran, thank you for your attention to this matter

Like, if it weren't for them having him on live TV the next day, I'd have been sure Sunak had already left the country by the time of the election, he was that checked out. Starmer's victory was on the back of historical dissatisfaction with the Tories, not enthusiasm for his Labour

Corbyn's Labour won more votes than Starmer's. I'd say that if your analysis doesn't account for that, you must be disingenuous, but I've seen enough political commentators genuinely confused that people care about the popular vote to give him the benefit of the doubt and say he's just stupid

Labour should be kind to the Greens Labour's instinct is not to give the left what they want, but to chastise them for even wanting it

"Once again, it seems the Labour leadership’s instinct is not to give progressives what they want, but to chastise them for even wanting it."

Zack Polanski, Hannah Spencer, the Greens writ large: 'Wouldn't it be nice if things were nice?'

Starmer, Labour broadly, most of the UK press: 'We must fight this insane destructive extremism with every bone in our bodies'

I guess it would look divisive to someone who's trying to make his party indistinguishable from the Tories and whatever the racism party of the moment is

The end of the Labour party as a going concern in electoral politics?

The end of Britain's political duopoly now looks complete, as Labour suffers a catastrophic by-election defeat to the Greens in Gorton and Denton. Reform comes second, while the Tories lose their deposit with just 2% of the vote. Keir Starmer is now a prisoner of the left, and Britain is undergoing a tectonic realignment of its electoral politics.

I think both the Tories and then Labour collapsing to despised public enemy levels within two years of being roared into power by their supporting media outlets, may suggest that a lot of important people were badly wrong about some important things. When do the mea culpas begin?

Voters making their choices in part based on complex foreign policy issues would often be seen as the sign of an enlightened electorate.

But apparently in the minds of Reform and the right-wing media this means sectarianism and the death of democracy.

Probably because they lost.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?
