Power means nothing if you won't use it when the people of Maine need it. Maine deserves better. Maine deserves change. We have the chance to build a government that serves the people, not the ultra-wealthy. Let’s go win this thing.

IMO Bad-Enoch is a gift to Lab and Burnham has all but said that Join will be in the next manifesto. That alone will force the Tories and Reform to own Brexit

Good piece Niall. The same exceptionalist bilge comes from both sides. The comments re Canada were laughable. The EU is facing a number of challenges and the UK in that context is less relevant than it thinks. The Tories will tear up any agreement entered into so supping with a long spoon is best.

Most experts agree: diesel export ban MAY initially lower prices in SOME areas of the US, the south and midwest. But long term would backfire both in our national security (including alliances) and in price. Global Diesel prices would eventually skyrocket as a result and those prices would hit us

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

The challenge remains. There's a stubborn refusal among sone in the UK to accept the consequences of Brexit. Whining victimhood is no substitute for cold hard reality. It was a vote without a plan, carrying consequences they were warned about.
