@CarolineLucas You’re so right about failure of progressive politics - which is long before any election campaign. I’ve often thought this.

Today 2 things seem clear - the urgency of closer ties with EU neighbours, & importance of distinguishing between autocrat & demagogue Trump, & those who voted for him. The rise of populism reflects a failure of progressive politics - unless we address that, no country is immune

Thinking Fast and Slow - about the best thing I ever read. A great life’s work. Noise, the later book, is also great - a far harder read, but highly actionable, probably simpler and more effective than AI.

Fey and cryptic, Steve Harley was a fave and a stand-out of glam rock; yet he was also a bit prog and a bridge towards punk too. That voice, the posing, the on-screen persona. Mourned as another part of my youth passes.

Today, we mourn the loss of a true musical legend, Cockney Rebel frontman, Steve Harley. 🤍 From ‘Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me)’ to 'Love's a Prima Donna' to 'The Candidate', Steve’s artistry has left an indelible mark on our studio's history. Rest in peace, Steve. 🎸

I can hardly believe how rubbish this platform has become. I scroll for ages thru culture wars nonsense. If that is targeted then they missed - I don’t care about your daft arguments - I do care and am sad that they exist, but I want to read worthwhile information not that.

@lRedemption @simondale11 GB was one of the smartest people in UK politics of our lifetime - - yet the moment he lost the election was likely the "bigoted woman" incident - very unfortunate.

I have a feeling that this photo may well haunt Sunak during the GE campaign

@CentralBylines Indeed and that’s an important point. We now know part of the why this happened. Personal gain

@PrivateEyeNews Well done The Eye for covering this as well as many other stories, earlier, longer, more thoroughly than other journals. It's been upsetting me for years. Turn up the heat please.

@SimonFi29521641 @kelvmackenzie Ed Davey used to be a very good local MP, but it all took a wrong turn with the coalition government. I no longer know what the Lib Dems are really for.

@kelvmackenzie Davey won't resign, these people are too hard faced, too morally bereft, it's always someone else's fault, he'll do all he can to deflect the blame from himself and hold on to his peerage and position. Disgraceful.

Grimsby, once Europe's biggest fishing port, voted 70% for Brexit. But now voters say Brexit was rhetoric and broken promises. “The fishing industry in the UK is smaller than the lawnmower industry,” says Patrick Salmon. “Nobody gives a toss, really.” bloomberg.com/features/2023-…

@AvivaUK The response was really hopeless, told me nothing I didn’t already know and was deaf to what I was really asking.

@robertmtaylor I can see we provided the relevant contact details via the Aviva website, and suggested calling at 08.30 when the teams opens as this tends to be a quieter time to call. I'm pleased you've got through & I hope you mentioned your concerns to the team. ~ Katie
