I just saw a post from some guy saying that traditional music is “over” because AI music will provide “infinite personalised songs”. I want music that reflects the misshapen thoughts of another human being, not the output of an algorithmic average.

The morning after. The fact is we are now in a national argument. Gone are the years of Labour just conceding contested ground; winning power but losing the argument; governing for party over country. If the centre-left loses it will now be after a proper fight.

Andy Burnham isn't a brilliant natural orator. He can be a bit woolly and rambling at times. But – and the obvious contrast here is Keir Starmer - it is very obvious what he believes in, and how strongly he believes in it, which can be very powerful, as here.

Most striking of all is that this is explicitly a very *pro-politics* speech, a direct rebuttal to the anti-politics that is so widespread. And rightly so: politics can change things, it is an admirable thing to choose to engage in and a duty for us all to step forward and pursue.

Well, well, well - if it isn’t the consequences of our own actions. It would appear that migrants are not, in fact, the fiscal drain we’ve been told they are by years if we go by the £4bn to £6.5bn shortfall that’s been caused by the precipitous drop in numbers under this government. Funny that.
