Starmer government has no anti-racism or hate crime strategy (this last existed under May in 2016-2020) though its been drafting up a cohesion plan for some months
This govt has more anti-racism rhetoric (since Sept). I still see no strategy/policy beyond conference speech + ad hoc media comments

The future of Reform rests on Matt Goodwin’s by-election
Lose in Gorton & Denton and the party may be driven even further right
Matt Goodwin's candidacy in Denton & Gorton "illuminates the balance of risks & rewards for Reform, presenting itself as a potential govt, in embracing the sharper edges of the online right." Our @sundersays.bsky.social for @thenewworldmag.bsky.social

"The collision of a multiparty electorate with a voting system designed for two parties is creating new risks for Britain".
I signed this letter. It's not about blocking Reform;it's about the danger to democracy of a system that can't cope with multiparty voting

It is quite striking that Konstantin Kisin simply denied (falsely) on BBC1 that he had said what he said, word for word, on his podcast.

The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible.
It leads on "sharply contested narratives"
It has a dramatic skew to the US government
It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

Interesting. How many lablels could people choose and were the rankings interesting. It would be helpful for those not familiar with the School or similar Schools to know something about the gender balance. Sociology is, I would guess, 10%-15% male. Politics is somewhat different.

Nadhim Zahawi and family fled to the UK from Saddam Hussein's Iraq as a child refugee in 1978. Unable to speak English when he arrived, he became a hugely successful businessman and an MP before serving as Chancellor of the Exchequor.
His origin story is the very antithesis of the Reform narrative.
