Love this trend. Did Trump get more votes? Uh, no, fewer. Maybe he won with black men? No, they overwhelmingly went for the dems. Perhaps with gen z white men... no? Ok then what was it? Oh, the dems managed to lose like 10 million voters since the last elections to abstention😬

To put Keir Starmer’s “mandate” into perspective, Kamala Harris’s blowout defeat saw her win 47.5% of the vote, while Starmer’s Labour gained a loveless landslide on 33.7%—a house of cards that could be blown away in a shifting breeze, entirely a product of the electoral system.

FDR, 1936: "Government by organized money is just as dangerous as government by organized mob. Never before in our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they are today. They are unanimous in their hate-and I welcome their hatred!" The voters:

The reason electricity prices in the UK are so high is because we’re more reliant on gas than other countries - and gas sets the marginal price of electricity It’s our reliance on fossil fuels that’s making us cold and poor — not net zero

The "Americans are simply bigots" crowd needs to reckon with the fact that an objectively far more racist & sexist US society produced the political antidote to fascism (FDR), and it's a vastly more enlightened culture* that's seen Trump's rise. There is more going on here.

Perfect illustration of how the BBC operates. It can tell critics it covered this story, while hiding it away so almost no one will actually see it. This is the newspaper equivalent of burying embarrassing news as a filler at the bottom of page 46.
