Not Tonight Brosephine @spiderscrawl.bsky.social · 17hI wonder if electoral reform could be part of a future negotiation for EU membership. If we have a system that makes an outright majority virtually impossible, then it's far less likely that a government could be formed where all coalition partners would agree to reversing any decision to re-enter 000

Not Tonight Brosephine @spiderscrawl.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Focusing on the media coverage seems like the sort of simplistic narrative that you often see in, well, in sections of the media.

Not Tonight Brosephine @spiderscrawl.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Agreed. And I think everyone, especially the cycling press, need to allow a bit of space.
