Probably similar confirmation bias of really agreeing with something in the mush of stuff they spout off about as Trump supporters. Will be disenchanted or wound up about non EU migration, net zero or child sex gangs and rejoining / closer ties with EU will be low on their priorities

The most shocking part of this polling is that there are any reform supporters who want to rejoin the EU or have a closer relationship

I was surprised to see in today's ONS figures that UK goods exports suddenly rose 3.5% in Q1/25. Then I found this was almost entirely driven by a surge in UK aluminium exports to the US ahead of Trump's tariffs. This alone pushed UK GDP growth by ~0.2 ppts (out of 0.7 ppts total in Q1). Amazing.

Never forget, if you design a city for cars, it fails for everyone, including drivers. If you design a multi-modal city that makes walking, biking & public transit attractive options, it works better for everyone, including drivers. INCLUDING DRIVERS. The “war on cars” has always been a lie.
