This btw is why the ravings about "regime change" from the conspiracy left are so absolutely insane and out of touch with reality. The US has had more than a decade to get rid of Assad if that were their intention. These CIA masterminds are obviously not very good at their jobs. The extent that...

I've read that Zelensky's videos are an attempt at the forging of a new national identity in real time. I think national conceptions are probably formed under adversity and if Ukraine survives, their self-conception is going to remarkable. The fucking blitz and WW2 is the engine that drives the...

Another factor that I don't think will necessarily influence the war but is worthy of note nonetheless is the growing awareness of the way the Russian imaginary has structured Ukraine, the war, and how out of whack this is with actual Ukrainian conceptions of themselves as a nation-state with a...

It will go on like this until it changes. I know that's incredibly trite, it's deliberately so, pls forgive me. What I meant it will drag on until a tipping point is reached, some combination of visible factors, "known unknowns", or more likely things completely off the radar currently and...

Yeah, its rare I disagree with your analysis P, but if we recall the early days of the war and the propaganda that supported the invasion, it was all the war will last 2 days, the Russian army was strong (not inept and absolutely riddled with corruption), and would be greeted by cheering...

Biggest by election swing ever in Tiverton.

I thought all the Boebert stuff was possibly faked? Hard to keep up, but I've not seen any hard evidence yet.

I plan to use Woops as a "wedge" as he's belligerent but most people will think they can beat him in a fight then I'll come in as the heavy artillery. t.

I'll come if I can. Me and Woops will start a fight with random strangers for Luke's entertainment

Apparently it was in Lord Ashcroft's book but no one noticed at the time of publication:

I kinda tuned out of Future since Wizrd tbh. Idk if I agree re. Free Bricks. I think he worked really well against Gucci 'cos he seemed to be working the hooks against Gucci's raps. I started listening to the CVE tape yesterday. I think it's excellent though it didn't bend my head up like the...

Gucci said once said once Future isn't a great rapper but he is a great pop songwriter which I think is true.

It's the kind of hairsplitting that delights politicians but enrages normal people.

Broad strokes but Thatcherism had defeat of the unions, mass privitisation. Blair had "the third way". Cameron had austerity I guess. I don't think the current lot have anything apart from power for it's own sake, it's a kind of paradox 'cos they don't want to do anything with it. I guess...

Its always been there but there have always been other ideas in operation as well. This govt really have nothing else.
