One thing I find endlessly funny about the rise of AI is that it has revealed that there is a large number of people who believe that the reason they wrote essays at school or university is their teachers were desperately waiting for them to provide a definite answer to “Lear: what’s up with him?”

Shocked to find that the net effect of a wave of Corbynites flooding into the Green Party has been to cause it to totally redirect its focus towards massive antisemitism! Impossible to see that coming

Fundamentally, Kemi thinks the government she was part of was too left wing, and she thinks this largely because the government failed in its core aims of growth and deficit reduction, and rather than assessing why their policies failed, she has declared they will do those policies for real instead.

Japan still use hanging but to avoid personal culpability, the trapdoor gets released when three people press a button in a room next door, only one of which works. Like when firing squads have one gun that’s loaded with blanks. The Wiki image is darkly funny. It’s like something from Zero Escape.

You came into power and raised the cost of employing people, especially for entry level jobs and have been non-stop talking about how amazing AI is to boost productivity, which in reality comes through reducing entry level roles, and now have decided the cause of youth unemployment is welfare

- large immigration surge partly down to big one-off factors - the right demands settlement reforms to stop them staying - Mahmood concedes - Labour MPs stop it being retrospective, removing the point of it responding to the surge - future immigrants have to wait longer to settle for no good reason

Crazy to think multiple Tory governments promised lower migration but fudged on it at budgets because they wanted more headroom for tax cuts, and now a Labour government desperate for more headroom has cut numbers to their own detriment.

Final point on this. There’s nothing new to HO wanting lower numbers and HMT wanting higher numbers. Was ever thus (eg May vs Osborne). What is more surprising is that Mahmood never gets asked about this and the relative silence of Govt ministers (other than Rayner) on positive side of immigration.

Every piece I read from the ex-Starmer crew has the same flavour- a bleeding over of their distaste for other more socially liberal colleagues in the Labour Party, which has been retro-fitted into an entire explanation for how politics should work, even as it failed when actually tested.

will say it again: the most effective way to curb far right agitators like Lowe, "Tommo" et. al. would be to stop their ability to earn money for it from social media or live streaming. So much of it is grifting for revenue, not attention.

The threshold raise was a complete disasterclass by the 2010 Liberal Democrats: it narrowed the tax base, they got no credit for it in government, why on earth would you want to do it again when the public realm and the public finances are in a worse state?
