its worth asking why posts like this — a purported leftist warning others not to trust elected left-wing politicians — consistently do so well on the site where racist Trump ally Elon Musk controls the algorithm that chooses what posts people see

Again on today's Batman discourse: The Year One/Long Halloween stories do show a Batman who comes to clear Gotham of the corruption and actually *succeeds* in doing so. The issue, and this is what Nolan and Reeves didn't adapt* is that as this is happening the vacuum is then filled by the rogues.

There were a lot of annoying asterisks in Andy Burnham's speech and I really do wish he'd take more action but I also appreciate that Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves were fundamentally wastes of space who had no right running a paper bag never mind a country; so it was really their faults.

Not mentioned in the discourse is that the only reason Bruce Wayne is a billionaire is that there needs to be a reason for why he can get those wonderful toys. A mere moderate millionaire isn't gonna build a satellite where he can hang out with Superman and Green Lantern.

We can all argue about Burnham's speech but it meant girl twin asking me what the triple lock was and boy twin asking me what my preferred form of PR is. So it's done its work.

I want a Batman story in which Bruce Wayne invents video games, ultimately providing a low-cost home entertainment option that helps significantly reduce street crime from the mid-1990s onward.

It’s also such a breath of fresh air after Starmer, who seemed to think modelling behaviour was beneath him as a leader.

And as ever, I will begin to believe in "parity" between technical/vocational education and university degrees when the children of at least some government ministers go down the former route.

"Batman is a billionaire that likes punching poor people" is baby's first critical reading which is fine when you're 12 but people really shouldn't be feeling smug about posting it when they can also have their own credit card.

The BBC news summary this morning went seamlessly from "critics warn PM scrapping triple lock would be electoral suicide" to "critics ask if PM has nerve to make tough decisions" and I don't think it's a particularly pro Burnham stance to suggest he might not be the entire problem here.

The hard truth is we have implemented every centre-right nostrum, from slashing local government through conditionality of benefits to junking resilience measures for society and the economy - and as many predicted, it all turns out to be very costly in the long run.

The degradation of British politics has either made Suella Braverman – a former *attorney general* – this stupid and irresponsible, or else entirely indifferent to appearing as such to those who know the law if it gets her applause from her online fan base.

From the GBR Rolling Stock Infrastructure Strategy Does that mean that Midland Main Line can be completed? Please?
GBR is taking the battery-led approach because this is where the best balance of passenger benefits, value, deliverability and flexibility lies for most passenger services. Full overhead electrification will nevertheless remain the preferred solution where route-level analysis demonstrates
that freight train operators’ needs, sustained high speed operation or wider network integration make this necessary or justify the additional investment.

The whole notion of the ROSCO is just WTF? I assume this could have only come about because of the nature of the 90s privatisation of British Rail. Even a more "sensible" privatisation surely would have meant that each TOC would actually own the damned things?
