How would that even work tho?
Like, what sort of situation would need to occur such that the only way to save one man’s life is for every jewish person to die?
Seems a bit far-fetched to me.

It’s weird how the tech bros seem so keen on destroying our cultural industries - where do they get their ideas from if not culture?

To be fair she is just describing a vanilla socialist economy (social ownership of the means of production) but at the same time going straight to collectivisation at the end was pretty wild.
Zarah Sultana apparently wants to nationalise the entire economy including the Internet.

Went with the family to the cinema at the weekend to see Wicked for good and one of the adverts was an extended trailer for a cast discussion about Avatar 3 and I thought:
“Wow, it’s actually really impressive they managed to come up with away to make those Avatar films *even more* boring!”

What if:
Immigration is actually really beneficial to a country and helps secure its future prosperity and long term health of its culture and isn’t a really bad thing like all those rich sociopaths who moved to Dubai say it is?

Guys, guys, guys:
what if we provide asylum to lots of refugees so that when the conflict in their homeland ends and economic reconstruction begins we have lots of social links to that country that allow us to forge mutually beneficial economic partnerships with it?

i think all the time about the discourse around the oscars slap. i forget who it was who said this but their takeaway was "listen, these are three highly specific and extremely strange individuals colliding at once in a singular event. there is nothing to be learned or extrapolated here"

You have to hand it to Trump: he’s really up front when it comes to demonstrating the law doesn’t apply to rich people.
The UK establishment is a lot more awkward about it, usually having to just pointedly ignore awkward questions from the public asking why that rich criminal isn’t in jail.

As Stephen says the problem is the headroom isn't really there. Not that Reeves had loads of spare cash...

Good article, or “how not to make a twat out of yourself by doing the job of looking at what’s actually going on, and not just collating competing briefings between opposing political factions thinking that’s what real journalism is.”
Feel like I'm going mad. The Budget's 'headroom' is based on frankly irresponsible and wildly optimistic claims about what Labour will do in the final year of the forecast, and on ignoring a bunch of upward pressures on spending, and the claim is that she was being exaggeratedly *pessimistic*?
Suggestion Rachel Reeves exaggerated fiscal pressures is absurd
Chancellor was instead far too optimistic about public finances and government’s ability to secure cuts

Should these people be equating politicians defecting to Reform to them dying?
(Yes, yes they should).
(Yes, yes they should).
this, but for Jonathan Gullis defecting to Reform
You know when a famous person dies and you're surprised because you'd assumed they must already be dead? That, but for Nadine Dorries defecting to Reform.

The banter timeline is where Reeves is “forced to resign” (gets fired) because she “misled the market” (upset the Lobby) and a new chancellor comes in, immediately announces income tax rises and the right wing papers completely lose their shit.
I feel like I'm going mad here. It was about a policy she didn't even proceed with! Who fucking cares??

The whole saga is giving me a “Get Brexit Done” / “stop the boats!” Vibe, only this time it’s the journalists getting more and more worked up about something, even though they surely know it’s only going to harm them in the long run, but they just can’t help themselves.
I think there’d be less scoffing on here if the story was presented as “they really did change their minds on this” rather than the “they lied to us, us the Westminster lobby, they lied to us.”
The speech really *was* intended to make the argument for income tax rises, and they really did change their mind on this. It's not even disputed by anyone actually in the government, just by some people who are driving themselves crazy on here.

"Deception" about a tax rise that didn't happen.
If you want to stay up all night screaming into the sky about this, do it on your own time. It's ok, the entire Westminster lobby is fussing over it. I'll get on with a story about social housing waiting times, which presumably don't matter.
