It is so strange that this minority position, whilst remaining a minority position, now dominates political conferences in a way it just did not do before.

I think true democracy is not voting in a PCC election? I think in my ward in Bristol we had like 13 votes cast.

I miss that job. Learnt a lot about various SME's. Like a small restaurant chain that in 2021 was 60% down on covers but up on revenue. Why? Because the clientele was suddenly 100% British, and we were drinking more than the tourists did pre covid.

You are the one who says teenagers cannot be trusted to not drink and drive if the drinking age was lowered.

Richard @richd028.bsky.social · 14h
I'm not sure why teenagers drink driving is worse than adults drink driving? Maybe just stop the drink driving?

No I didnt mean interchange for trains, iirc thats completely off the table. But a passenger interchange linking all the Euston road transport together would be great to make it easier for people arriving on HS2 to transit to HS1 or elsewhere.

In your organisation, do you have any "strategy" teams who don't really do that much, seem a bit overpromoted, feel like they're all just angling to be a consultant? The Cabinet Office is just that. Over and over again.

Is funny though how we took a train from Shanhai to Beijing with less stress than thr last time I took the Heathrow express.

I guess Paddington is basically equally easy to go to StP as it is to Heathrow in both cases there are no changes.

We used to have such an expensive definition of Englishness that it was just taken as a matter of course that it included Scotland.

My least popular opinion remains that ethno-essentiallist attacks on multicultural identity (as in, It's Not Real) is an import from American racial frameworks.

Its really funny thinking that policing someones national identity is a good use of time. But also does kind of sho how fucked the right is. The fiscal headroom is 12bn down thanks to war and inflation. And the main story coming off the LOTO speech is that Ian Wright is English.

This is exactly it. People not enjoying something and just paying to avoid the chore (a very normal thing) pretending it is the only choice (not normal).
