Britain’s only way out of this mess is a shift to the centre, writes Philip Collins
Voting intentions are split five ways, so politicians must plan for a coalition. Can anyone make space between the left and right?

@CilComLFC 🇩🇪 German Chancellor Scholz's conservative party narrowly wins the election Rhineland-Palatinate, but the right-wing AfD doubles its previous vote share, securing its best result in the state. ⚫️ CDU (center-right): 30.5% 🔴 SPD (center-left): 26.5% 🔵 AfD (right-wing): 20%

@L0m3z They left because they couldn't get people who beat them in arguments banned any longer. It's not a loss.

@admcollingwood Look it's been three weeks, they've already eviscerated Iran's war potential. Trump derangement syndrome is real.

We have a month or two before the consequences of the Iran war are felt in British politics. It means those who supported it, and the broader neoconservative Atlanticist agenda are discredited in a way that even I don't relish. Why? Winners will be the Greens, the Muslim independents, Corbyn's Hallo Clouds, Hello Sky Party, and the far left wing of the Labour Party. It will disembowel the populist right, who foolishly jumped aboard this lunatic train. It will bring forth the more extreme versions on the right in response. We had better hope that the USAF manages to degrade Iranian capacity or that Trump accepts a strategically and politically catastrophic L soon.

Albanese says that the reception at Lakemba mosque was 'incredibly positive'. The man is devious and a liar. The entire world saw what happened in that mosque, yet he'll have us believe he was warmly received.

@avidseries I'm not sure how many of them ever believed in free speech, they just didn't want social conservatives to censor them. Now that prospect has entirely disappeared, they've abandoned the concept entirely.

It took less than a decade for the left to pivot from "I disagree but defend your right to say it" to "your words are literal violence."

The transformation of liberals into "progressives" since 2013 has seriously been the worst thing to happen to American culture in my lifetime. Just absolutely gutted so much of what was good about this country. End of a golden age.

There is a lot to consider with this. Many people on here, whose opinions are normally highly valuable, have turned into frothing loons with orange man bad blinkers.

I find it very difficult to assess the true state of the war against the Iranian regime because the entire intellectual opinion class suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome and wishcast for a US defeat

@AaronBastani It's been three weeks.
THREE WEEKS.
And in that incredibly short period of time, most of the Iranian offensive and defensive capability has been obliterated. The leadership, obliterated.
Are you seriously saying Iran is going to win this fight? You're mad if so.

Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP, Chair of the Parliamentary group for African Reparations, wants Britain to give away £15–£20 trillion - another second-generation traitorous MP.
7 TIMES THE NATIONAL DEBT.
£20,000,000,000,000
Nigeria alone sent a claim for £5 trillion.
Soros is funding a campaign to bankrupt us.

The Anglo Right has assumed pretty much the same attitudes towards Muslims that fascists had towards Jews 100 years ago. They are seen as disposable non-humans, to be blamed for every problem. To the point that they are killing them bc they are Muslim now:

@Ofer_binshtok It generally comes down to the police, the army, the interior ministry, and state media.
The police? I think we all know.
The army is hard to tell, the upper and lower ranks may differ.
The Home Office? Come on.
The BBC/C4? Obviously not on our side.
So it's looking bad.

If and when a war breaks out in the future between Muslims and non-Muslims on British soil, who will the internal security forces, the police, MI5, MI6, and the army stand with? Who will the King and the British government stand with?

Stella Creasey is rotten to her core She wanted to enshrine abortion up until birth as a human right in British Law She also brought an amendment, named after HERSELF that made it ILLEGAL to silently pray outside abortion clinics Meanwhile she says Muslims praying in their THOUSANDS in public demonstrations of dominance is absolutely fine The hypocrisy and double standards are staggering But she knows what she's doing An absolute psychopath

The ability of the British state successfully to manage an energy crisis is essentially nil. Everyone knows it. A country that mindlessly gave itself the world’s most expensive energy and deliberately made itself utterly dependent on imports, and thought it was so very righteous for doing so, is heading for a collision with reality. Reality will be the immovable brick wall against which the atrocious British state on its rickety bicycle collides at high speed.

Miliband’s entire approach during this war rests on a simple but very dangerous gamble: run down the existing energy system and trust the replacement will catch up in time (it won’t).
This goes well beyond the need to tackle climate change. That's not what really motivates him. He genuinely believes a renewables-based energy system will produce a more equal and just society. What critics see as the inherent downsides of the technologies he is pushing, he sees as catalysts for radically reshaping how we live, work and produce. That is the clear message from his book “Go Big”.
He isn’t a “revolutionary defeatist” in the strict Leninist sense. But the logic is very similar: if renewables cannot outcompete fossil fuels on normal terms, then periods of real crisis for oil and gas become an opportunity to tilt the balance. Constraining domestic fossil fuel supply in those moments weakens the incumbent system. He will be calculating that it builds political momentum for the rapids replacement of fossil fuels. He thinks this will work because he believes “getting off the roller coaster of international fossil fuel markets” is now the “common sense of the epoch” (let’s see if that is true when they start rationing petrol and the cost of living crisis is turbcharged).
He knows that a short-term retreat may well ease political pressure, but it risks killing the “climate justice” agenda (a much bigger prize for him) for a generation - as happened in the 1970s.

Australia's diversity is our strength. And I’m proud our team is as diverse as the communities we represent. Different backgrounds, different perspectives, all making us a better government. On the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, we’re committed to making sure every Australian feels safe and respected. No matter what language you speak, or what faith you practice.

Yes. Our ruling class is seen as a catastrophic failure by the people who REALLY count, those that lend us money.
The City Dissident@EC2man
We can see what a mess this country is in by the fact that it is now judged the least creditworthy in the Western world, forced to borrow at rates higher than everyone else. The regime and its media allies go to great lengths to conceal the reality of the British govt's financial incontinence from the British people, but I sense that reality is soon going to come crashing through.
