The response to Bad Bunny's inclusion shows just how racist our society is. Racists are angry about the halftime show? Good! Everything about our society should make racists feel alienated. How do we make racists feel even more alienated from even more of society?

Against a corrupt, exhausted, unlucky Government, which under-estimated the threat from Reform, trying for its fifth General Election in a row, Morgan McSweeney delivered 33.7% of the vote. And he then made Starmer the most unpopular PM ever. That's the measure of the man's 'genius'.

This is exactly correct. Biden (out of genuine ideological extremism) and Harris (out of generic cowardice) both were extremely pro-Israel, to the displeasure of their party's voting base, and pro-Israel groups didn't credit them at all. 100% factually true.
