It is worth noting that the current government does not want to invest in high quality housing that can be temperature managed effectively, but rather to remove regulations and create a more developer friendly environment. How do we think that will play out?

This is amazing. The Labour Party have released their much vaunted 'conversion therapy ban' with carve outs for... anyone claiming to be a healthcare provider. This is genuinely funny.

The issue is that the car has launched off the side of the cliff, and too many people are saying "if only we could go back to when we were headed towards this cliff at 100mph. Remember how great that was?" And not only can't you do that, it wouldn't fix anything if you could.

This is important, for me. It shouldn’t be necessary to explain to the public that half of our media outlets *at least* are dedicated to washing their brains with the most crazed, inflammatory propaganda they can pump out. Most people don’t have media studies degrees, and they shouldn’t require one.

This was, in part, a failure of intelligence. Russia’s vaunted spies made a series of blunders.

I’m never going to get this conversation out of my mind. The central thesis, as I understand it, is that Starmer’s unprecedented fall from power is inexplicable because he didn’t make one massive mistake just a constant stream of mistakes. He was the fucking Prime Minister.

Keir Starmer is a bad person who used his power to make the United Kingdom a more unequal place and dismantle the possibility of opposing oppression and genocide, and to drive trans people from public life. If you think he is decent, I have news for you about your own moral judgement.

This is razor sharp in a way I've not read from any other writer on the topic. So many lines I could quote. It's absolutely excellent. Go read it.
The queer vote, the, for lack of a better word, ‘internationalist’ vote, are invariably going to be core pillars of any modern centre-left party’s coalition. They’ll put up with a certain amount of performative moderation, given how frightening the alternatives are, but their patience is not infinite. People will not cast ballots for a party that is actively oppressing them, removing longstanding rights, or describing them in dehumanizing terms. The actual centre-left coalition is bartenders, supermarket shelve stackers, and waitresses. People who live in a big city in a small rental with roommates. Nurses, teachers, office staff. Young aspirational couples in the suburbs. Students and recent grads. Progressive professionals and, yes, academics. To those who are baffled by the hatred of Starmer from the left, ask yourself, if you were to be prevented from using a toilet, would it matter to you if it was done directly, or through an intermediary? Ask yourself also how people who work service roles might feel about those who outsource ugly, discriminatory conversations to them, in order to keep their own hands clean, to maintain their self-image as ‘decent’ people.

Mildly economically leftish when absolutely forced into it. Authoritarian on social and domestic issues. A government that has continued to crush protest and criminalise dissent. And one that has made life worse for significant minorities. It wasn’t identified as left-leaning, because it wasn’t.
