      A postcard from the day after an election: capturing a further political-constitutional moment
      6th November 2024 Yesterday things were unclear, and today things are all too clear. Yesterday it looked as if Harris could win. On the evidence available to someone watching from England, there se…

    As there is nothing we in UK can do to affect the outcome, and as polls are unreliable, may be sensible to avoid looking at US news until the election.

    A wonderful piece of prose.

    Look carefully at how long she waits before starting a sentence with “I”. And then wham.

      Supporting Donald Trump is too much for Richard Cheney
      7th September 2024 Back in the halcyon days of that golden age of when politics seemed kind of normal, there was no greater illiberal pantomime villain than Vice President Richard Cheney. (Of cours…

    Yes, local newspapers are essential in so many ways.

    But it is getting so that life is too short to ever click onto a local news website.

    Avoiding the onslaught of adverts is like playing Space Invaders. And working out where the next paragraph of a news item is like Where's Wally.

    There must be a more balanced way of supporting local news sites.

    The sheer un-usability of so many of the sites now means that the advertisers cannot be benefitting, and so the journalists cannot be benefitting.

    Musk and X threatening all-out war with the European Union merely means that they will end up being stuffed with their own equivalent of the Northern Irish protocol.

    Anyone active on social media with a very high following will tend to go mad and/or radicalise, unless they make a determined effort not to do so.

    It is not possible to process so many relationships on a constant 24/7 basis. And to try to do try to do so means you will either lose sense or perspective.

    I once had far too many followers and I just had to shove the brakes on, locking my account and so on.

    There is such an absolute disconnect between the actual facts of the Southport killings (alleged killer is British-born, Christian) and the riots, it is almost as if any trigger would have done.

    Had it not been Southport they would have fixed on some other pretext.

    This is not spontaneous. This is contrived.

    If your 'legitimate concern' is a view you hold regardless of the evidence, and which you use to justify any hateful thing you do or say, it is neither a 'concern' nor 'legitimate'.

    It is an excuse, cloaking something very different.

    “…but what about Republican legal challenges?”

    Democrats are still before their Convention. With decent lawyering and deft formal choreography there is nothing the Republicans can do to stop a new nominee.

    US Democrats are fretting in July about getting a candidate for a November election in respect of taking office in January.

    We would have had five Conservative Prime Ministers in the same time period.

    "My name is Liz Truss, former PM;
    Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
    Nothing beside remains.
    Round the decay of an iceberg lettuce, boundless and bare,
    the lone and level Norfolk Broads stretch far away.”

    A grumpy post.

    When a commenters ays you have "ignored" a widely read/posted article.

    No, it has not been ignored, I have decided not to include it. It has been considered, but omitted.

    Grump, grump.

    Law and policy commentary from England.I also geek out here about lore and fantasy, which are my real interests, as well as about other cultural stuff.I am often ironic and not always earnest, and so please don't take some of the things I post at face value.
