Remember enjoying Friends from College when it came out. Didn’t realise Platonic was the same writing team - now on my watchlist - thank you!

A really well reasoned thread - even as a Labour member there isn’t much that I disagree with. Worst for me is the immigration stance - horrendous.
I’ll hold my fire a bit - think two years are a reasonable time to give - before considering my membership.
But will do anything to keep Farage out.

Really sorry - it must have been very bad for you to take this step.
I can say from experience that it is not worth soldiering on in these circumstances - you will look back on today’s anxiety and know you did the right thing.
Wishing you all the good things for the future.
Now relax into Christmas.

“No Madam, the kitchen hasn’t mistakenly given your husband your chips as well - you just can’t be trusted to stop eating, when you’re full. And no, you’re not getting a discount - it’s the law!”

Totally agree.
I’ve never voted Tory in my life (and never likely to), but until very recently, a Tory election win would have been unwelcome, but not life-changingly scary.
Totally different with Reform.

It starts really well, but then deteriorates, repeatedly veering into party political rhetoric, which is offputting.
The bullet points could easily have been linked to the each corresponding narrative, making the strategy much clearer.
But good initiative in principle.

Not sure it’s golden enough for Trump.
He’ll take it home and get one of his ‘decorators’ to put more gilding on.

At 64 they will make peace with kind of being you, but will console themselves that it’s in an evolved version (I speak from personal experience). Looking forward to finding out about how it’s going at 74.

Oh they’ll follow him regardless, a bit of racism doesn’t bother them and he knows that. But I wonder if he’s just a little bit more bothered about his standing in the eyes of some wealthy donors….
