Sentient Ham, Keir Starmer, standing in front of two Union Jacks that are bigger than he is. Text says "I always sit in front of the Union Jack...I'm very encouraging of flags. I think they're patriotic and a great symbol of our nation...We've got a St George's flag in our flat"

A lot of things I don't like about the Green Party, but there's nothing more childish than maintaining a nuclear deterrent that requires you to ask your daddy in America if you can use it.

planetmatt @planetmatt.bsky.social · 3d

I'll vote for whichever party has the best chance of defeating Reform in my area. I'm no fan of Labour but the Green position on national defence is naive bordering on childish, even more so now that the UK cannot rely on the US's nuclear umbrella.

It sounds like employees at this school became inhuman robots in service of the inhuman robot, which demanded results regardless of the cost.

The child was supposed to meet metrics or not get food. MEET METRICS.

When Barrios’ husband brought their daughter to a previously scheduled checkup soon after, her doctor noted with concern that she had lost a significant amount of weight in a short time. Her dad then brought her to school with a note from the pediatrician, Barrios says, instructing her to eat snacks in between regular meals and saw her walk into school with it in her hand. She told her parents she delivered it to staff. Even though Alpha had asked parents in its handbook to “refrain” from sending in “midday snacks,” Barrios and her husband wanted to follow the pediatrician's recommendation, she says.

For the first few days, Barrios says, her daughter ate her snacks. Then one afternoon she returned with them still in her backpack, uneaten. Barrios, alarmed, asked if Alpha was providing different food instead. No, the 9-year-old answered. She told her mom that staff at the school said she didn’t earn her snacks and wouldn’t get them until she met her learning metrics.

they have been talking about social policy like this since the Victorian era

that's how the Whigs described the changes that brought in the workhouses of Dickens' era & removed all other sources of welfare support

getting everything in order by punishing those who dare deviate from their ideals

Streeting is asked about the Caerphilly result & he says the way to respond is to have a values driven agenda, which he explains is about modernising & reforming public services

We all know what right wing politicians mean when they talk about modernising & reforming

like it's not that complicated. if you offer young people hope for the future they turn out to vote for you. if you scold them and yell at them while promising that you're doubling down on a tech industry that is destroying their lives and wall street banks they don't.

These are just vague, shallow analyses for people who take the correctness of their own standpoint as read and so need a way to externalise the rejection of their particular, idealised political vehicle as something structural while blinding themselves to phenomena that complicate the frame.
