The president and his allies came after him.
Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.
He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.
His politics can win anywhere.
This guy, blimey...

04.11.2025 09:08 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0FR/NL have to compete with our neighbours as labour is fluid and can cross borders, disposable income needs to be broadly the same. UK's biggest asset/problem is being an island. Wages won't rise as there is a captive labour market and no unions to push back.

04.11.2025 08:56 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah I do agree with that. I live in the Netherlands where we rinse our wealthy properly but also, we offer mad tax breaks to companies so they bring their high paid staff (who then pay mad high personal income tax) so we get the revenue in a more roundabout way.

"That was absolutely crucial because this train was scheduled to be travelling through Huntingdon station on the tracks with no platform at 125mph." "It didn't stop in the middle of nowhere, which would have been very difficult." Calder thinks this was handled in the "safest possible way" thanks to the "incredible professionalism from the driver and the police". Train drivers are trained on how to take appropriate action, he adds,
Next time someone tells you that train drivers "just push buttons" show them this from the BBC

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable
