Boris ‘I’d be more of a Russian asset if I could be arses working’ Johnson said that? Well, it must be true 🙄
EU leaders laughed in his honey minster face.

Yes, all gays must vote on being gay. Never mind the bombing.

Absolutely. I remember the 70s and 80s where rape was a crime of women wearing too short skirts. That was what young girls of Gen X grew up absorbing

Some interesting research on it.

To a point but there are other demographic discrepancies. Women from some communities deemed to have the lowest rates of domestic abuse, in fact, appear to have higher levels. Cultural taboos can hinder reporting.

Yup

Proportional representation takes a more grown up electorate I think

I’m a little better at the Romance languages, Dutch and Germanic languages hurt my brain

Your English is good and I appreciate the conversational tone.

Exactly. The one finger pointing and three pointing back rule.

@anneapplebaum.bsky.social @radiofreetom.bsky.social @davidfrum.bsky.social and Fiona Hill (can’t find an account for her on here) are my go-tos for analysis. Interestingly right leaning but very clear eyed and whip smart.

He’s going to have to play this one very carefully. We have lots of people in the region to evacuate and protect but there’s below zero appetite for getting involved in any argy bargy.

Probably or possibly unfair but men who stand shouting about migrants abusing women always raise my suspicion. It’s like the whole maga and Q Anon thing.

He’s a tactician not a baby. Americans have dominated for so long they confuse emotion with reason.

I wonder again and again how many of trumps ‘smooth operations’ are awaiting the mad king leaving before the boomerang.
God knows what’s being planned and lined up for the future.

My unpopular opinion is that too many Americans have law degrees.

I remember the concern by many, including some prominent journalists and the Tory leadership: that Mandelson’s appointment may upset Trump. Like Trump hasn’t upset everyone.

How the right-wing British press became Trump’s trumpet Fleet Street is happy to ignore the real history of transatlantic relations to score points against Keir Starmer

Churchill would have been appalled by a figure like Trump. But some journalists have convinced themselves that Starmer is to blame for this hiccup in the “special relationship” app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/72649/...
