Andrew Parry @okimaths.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Freedom of movement and Schengen are not toxic issues although the media treat them as such. IMO FoM is the best model for immigration and it is certainly much better than what we have had since 2020. 100

Andrew Parry @okimaths.bsky.social · 01/10/2026If there was some demographics on the polling, it might be feasible to join with the expectation that the majority would not be opposed to the single currency in 10-20 years time.

Andrew Parry @okimaths.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Worse for me is when they have to do a question showing that an equation/identity is true and they start of stating the equation and then work under both sides, keeping the = between them, even though they don't know they are equal yet. 120

Andrew Parry @okimaths.bsky.social · 21/09/2026It looks a bit like 94/95 (great squad, high scoring, early win over WBA at home in the sun, team looking confident). I don't think we will have the (ridiculous) number of injuries that stopped us going up automatically that season. 000

Andrew Parry @okimaths.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Yes I think we need a proper tidy up of everything before asking the question. Off the top of my head: electoral reform, press regulation, spending caps, making the result null and void if join cheat or requiring a replay if stay out cheat. Might take a while. 110

Why? The NHS, yes, but also better food and workplace safety standards, a stronger welfare safety net, less reliance on cars etc. 108732
