"If there there was a window it was not broken, but it if was broken it was not by Nigel Farage's ball, but if it was his ball he certainly did not kick it, and if he did kick it, it was an accident and he knew nothing about it" said a Reform spokesperson.

Viktor Orban accomplished so much of what the Trump movement wants to accomplish here he ruled for 16 years and rewrote the rules in his favor and still, they threw him out and you know what? they did it by voting don’t let anyone tell you voting doesn’t matter

A strong argument, but it does have two omissions: 1) The argument about the mayoralty - that going to Reform would have damaged both Starmer and Burnham, and rightly so. 2) I'm also concerned Reform is outspending Labour 10 to 1, and can't help wondering whether all that money is organic.

That this was 2022 policy of last government is not necessarily a reason not to do it. But ignoring that avoids question of why it failed Much tougher policy on "pull factors" (refuse all claims) failed So analysis of asylum system rules as pull factor is exaggerated/wrong & changes won't impact

A strong immigration system doesn't need to be a cruel one. It shouldn't need saying - but refugees & asylum seekers are real people, fleeing war and persecution. This daughter of an immigrant is proud of our British and Labour values of respect and not turning our backs on people in real need.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

1/ The Trump Administration is seeking to force foreign companies worldwide to ban diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programmes within their firms if they want to do business with the US government. It's an aggressive expansion of its anti-DEI crusade. ⬇️

This is regulatory failure. But if you determine to run a complex regulatory state without acknowledgment, adopting any principles, or sharing any of the load, there's bound to be problems. Regulation is a huge modern political challenge largely unrecognised. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

So, taking a look through Keir Starmer's "six missions." Initial impression: there are some very specific targets here, unusual to see in British politics. And they're challenging. Rishi Sunak's weird five missions, they are not. 🧵
