Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Am I being unfair to think kemi and the tory party have not done any of the 5 things? Though to be fair I am not probably a voter they would target. 000
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 07/10/2026You made a really important point that not everyone in the media has grasped. Until it's resolved it undermines the current season including the matches coming up this weekend. Regardless of how we see seasons in the past or what will happen in the future. 010
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Do you really believe this? Because for a long time tory mps and conservative media have lived in their own reality. Has anyone taken responsibility for the mess they left? Brexit, truss, partygate etc etc. Or do you all still have your heads stuck in the sand? 010
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Klopp is a pretty unique figure. I wonder who would be a Scottish equivalent. Charismatic, experienced, a long track record of success. It would be hard to find anyone of that ilk. 100

Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 04/10/2026What strikes me is not just the mediocre performance of kemi badenoch as leader but a sizeable chunk of the tory party are not trying to find a new leader. At one point in the recent past a ruthless Conservative party would have judged her inadequate and changed her for someone else at this point. 010
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I am sure there is another telegraph headline where camilla tominey says words to the effect "whisper it but sunak is making a comeback" just before the tories imploded at the general election. 020

Her comment that she had plenty of people to do something with but now had no-one to do nothing with struck me as really profound. 1347356

Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 30/09/2026On the surface this sounds like labour under corbyn. 020
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 30/09/2026But none of these newspapers have been impartial objective observers for a long time now. These are the kind of headlines I would have expected them to make. Labour needs to do what they think is right because they will never get the support of these newspapers. 080
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It's bad for city. But I don't think it puts the Premier league or English football in a good light either. It's not a good look how long they were able to get away with it. 010

Reposted by Migsy29Sam Freedman @samfr.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Every private conversation in Westminster: "Well the triple lock obviously has to go at some point". Every commentator on Burnham: "completely mad to propose getting rid of triple lock - political suicide". 41630126
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 29/09/2026This is what concerns me about not just Burnham but many in labour. They tell us what they plan to do knowing it will be popular with parts of their base/support then further down the line they ditch their plans. It has happened too often. They lack the courage to take these difficult decisions. 010

Reposted by Migsy29Jonn Elledge @jonnelledge.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The BBC news summary this morning went seamlessly from "critics warn PM scrapping triple lock would be electoral suicide" to "critics ask if PM has nerve to make tough decisions" and I don't think it's a particularly pro Burnham stance to suggest he might not be the entire problem here. 441426255
Migsy29 @michaelnoller.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I am still very pessimistic about this happening. How many times have things like this been promised and then ditched further down the line? Its a recurring issue. 140

Reposted by Migsy29JWexTheSpa @jwsidders.bsky.social · 27/09/2026This is the fundamental difference between Labour and the right. The latter craves power and relishes using it. Labour is terrified of it because of an imposter syndrome rooted in the belief - shared by the right - that England is a right wing country which sometimes allows Labour to govern. 1357
