@hassledvania Let it sleep for the same amount of time that it did between McCoy and Eccleston, let people get nostalgic for it and want it to come back, and then let me revive the show and take it over. It's all part of the grand plan.

@hassledvania I'm happy with this honestly. I hope it gets cancelled fully and goes into another post-McCoy level hiatus. Any extra things is just more chance for RTD and the BBC to further damage the reputation of the show.

Completely insane that an African man with no reason to be in Ireland literally tried to behead a local man on the street, and people saw the video and are still doing whataboutism

One of the most important games in the history of the franchise tonight. Lot of work to be done, lot of surrounding noise. Thankfully I root for a unit that is extremely professional and seems to be laser focused on the mission. This series isn’t even remotely close to being over, let’s play Knick basketball and get this one tonight.

@CaribouCoon Seen, or at least know of most of them. It's just '09 and '21 that I can't figure out what they are.

@animeoutsiders I've managed to steer clear of a lot of the worst kinds of people. What even is here that'd cause the people to be stupid with this?

Fundamentally the problem for Keir and his outriders is that they believe passionately in the project and principles that led the police to ignore Henry Nowak, can't compromise, and therefore are stuck with trying to deflect attention. Something I wrote in 2020 which I think holds up is that the advocates of migration have used identity politics as a battering ram to overcome objections, while also trying to deny the majority any right to an identity of its own. This was risky because the structure of the post 1945 European state – the ties to international law, the checks on state power, the endless quagmire of human rights – is about avoiding a repeat of the events before year zero. Hence why freedom of speech and association are weak and qualified while the freedom to move across borders based on even the flimsiest claim appears absolute and ironclad, and hence why politicians call any criticism of this structure dangerous. Phrased charitably, I think the consensus that legitimised identity politics went something like this: ‘The majority holds a great deal of political power and will generally make rules to suit it. Some of these rules will heavily disadvantage smaller groups. When this happens, we will sometimes need organised lobbying to overcome, with the lobby largely defined by ethnic grouping. Identity politics, or a soft ethnocentrism, is therefore a necessary evil in a pluralistic state. However, these same tools employed by the majority may result in even greater oppression of minority groups. In order for society to function, the majority must deny itself the tools of ethnocentric rhetoric, not pursue its interests as a group, and act instead as individuals. In this way, it will generally get most of what it wants, minority groups will be better treated, and we don't run the risk of direct group interest clashes’ Which was, of course, nonsense, because the toolkit used to suppress dissent was enabling levels of migration that would turn the majority into a plurality, and while doing so habituating people to thinking in terms of ethnic interests. The result of defining every group under the sun bar one and setting out appeals to their unique interests is to open the question of precisely what interests the excluded group holds. And that's why Starmer and co are stuck: they can't concede that their policies have led to this because if they do, they legitimise the reaction they've spent decades trying to suppress.

You'll see politicians come out now and condemn the protests in Southampton last night that turned violent, but you won't see them condemning stand up to racism for harassing those who attended the vigil for Henry Nowak the evening before, contributing to the rising temperature. You can't hate them enough.
