Not only is she unaware that she's practising illegal discrimination but she's equally clueless if she imagines that preferring 'diverse' candidates to white ones will automatically reduce 'sexism' in the workplace. Such 'enlightened' attitudes are just a different bigotry.

You're missing the PM's preference for complex technical solutions that don't work over simple practical ones that do because he can then claim to be respecting the legal rules and the interests of his (and our) rivals. See the Windsor Gambit passim.

And this informal ethno-political favoritism and suppression will get worse and worse under Democrat governance in academia, the law, culture and economy. The fantasy nightmare of Trump as Dictator is trivial by comparison as well as being unbelievable when his enemies rule all.

You can't win on promising to cut immigration because you've broken that promise countless times. You can only win by actually cutting it. And you can't do that without leaving the ECHR. On which you've bottled.

An article I posted earlier this year about the transformation of the UK haulage industry post Brexit. Big increase in UK workers trained to be lorry drivers & wages up 30%. We need to copy this in different industries from care workers to hospitality ft.com/content/13a0a9…

WOW.

Speaker Mike Johnson just said that MAGA Republicans are blurring out the faces of rioters on the Jan. 6 tapes 'because we don't want them to be retaliated against and be charged by the DOJ.'

If this is not obstruction of justice, I don’t know what is.

This is interesting on several grounds: 1. Many people are saying it. 2. Almost all of them are conservative activists. 3. Many of them now hate the Tory party. 4. They accept a Tory defeat or worse as inevitable & necesary. 5. Neither Tories nor pundits grasps this.

Venezuela dictator Maduro gearing up to invade neighbouring Guyana. He wants its oil. US military has been working with Guyana’s tiny military but done nothing like enough to deter Maduro. Nor has Britain. Guyana is former colony, friend/ally and fellow Commonwealth country. Only…

The past 50 years have been striking for the degree to which elected politicians have given away so many of their powers & responsibilities - to supranational institutions (e.g. EU), central bank, big business (e.g. privatisations), quangos, etc. It's a major denial of democracy.
