Watching episode of ER from 2001. Dr. Chen & Dr. Carter are trying to diagnose an unconscious preschooler. Carter: “Could be measles.” Chen: “Measles? Have you ever seen measles?” Carter: “No, have you?” Chen: “Of course not, nobody’s seen measles.” So far backwards in such a short time.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

It's clear why Fartrage et al, want to use Harry Novak's death to stir up racist morons. They're following the Nazi playbook, from the Reichstag Fire to Kristallnacht. In 1933 it made a civilised nation turn on itself and abandon decency. Fartrage (& Musk/Miller/Putin) hope that it will again.

Starmer's present diffulties are a perfect storm of whingeing. The RW want him out because he might reverse Brexit and de-fang the billionaires. The Corbynistas want to get their own back – no matter how much it helps the RW. Deform is just glad he's taking the heat off their £5m man.

This is why there's the frenzy to get rid of Starmer. He's so good at the actual business of being PM – if not the public face of being PM – they think he might actually do it. And it scares them shitless. Actually, there's 1 or 2 of us who'd be quite happy to see him "rip-up Brexit".
