To understand British public opinion - fairness, decency and respect for the rules are the trio to start with. Most have no time for sneering, rudeness. So this is a good eg of the online right mistakenly assuming they’re channeling public opinion, but couldn’t be further from it
'What do you think are British values?' @StevenEdginton finds out from South London locals what it means to be British.
If a more moderate Democrat beats a progressive in the 2028 primary (as in 2016 and 2020), it will be tough to convince progressives to unite behind the nominee when the Democratic establishment won't rally behind @ZohranKMamdani after his convincing primary win.

‘I don’t think it’s right for government to intervene.’ ‘You’ve just said bonuses are related to performance, so is your pay… why intervene on one but not the other?’ Environment Sec Steve Reed says water company bosses’ pay increases are ‘outrageous’, but refuses to ban them.
'This is about using secrecy to protect some, but not others.' @Lewis_Goodall lashes out at the government's 'dangerous, corrosive and toxic' cover-up of the Afghan data leak.

"The fact the Speaker couldn’t act in his role is extraordinary... I’m amazed more MPs aren’t affronted." How are super injunctions compatible with the powers of Parliament? @maitlis | @jonsopel | @lewis_goodall
"The names of Afghans who helped UK forces, left exposed, waiting for the Taliban to see." The MOD took out a super injunction to stop the story. @lewis_goodall asks: What kind of justice is secret justice? Watch now on @GlobalPlayer or YouTube.
