Halfrek Anyanka She uses Anya. He insists to this day that “her name is irish”. She hasn’t spoken to him during lockdown and he is very sad about why she wouldn’t care about his new replacement baby Wilfred.

I dunno anything about Carrie Symonds but if my partner dumped me to shack up with Boris Johnson I’d consider it a bullet dodged and probably be grateful that it happened. Also if I were a British journalist my daily life would be embarrassing enough that I’m not even sure I’d register it as a point of shame.

When Tom Scott did a video on profanity filters he filmed it in the village of Penistone because he refused to go to Scunthorpe.

learnincurve posted:Halfrek Anyanka Ainé (pronounced Awnya) is not an uncommon Irish name. Somewhat related, found an interesting video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOxHWP4FYYY quote:Edwin Poots, along with David Frost and Boris Johnson, continue to argue for the suspension of the brexit Northern Ireland Protocol. But the EU made an offer some time ago to reduce the need for 80% of checks that the UK government have refused to accept. It doesn't even need us to agree to anything we aren't doing right now either. You can only imagine that Johnson must want political tensions in Northern Ireland. I don't know what to make of this. I don't think it's entirely unreasonable that Bojo would use a restarted troubles as a distraction.

I see Blair in New Statesman basically advanced that Labour should become a party dictatorship with as little input from the masses as possible and should abandon it’s actual commitment to workers and instead merely advance progressivism. Man really thinks that most Brits want to be lib Dems.

blairism's trick was: 1) firmly distance yourself from the stink of old labour failure. embrace the new common sense and convention 2) centralise decision-making authority to a handful of reliable people and run everything through this clique, radiating outwards through a morass of people vying for your favour to be let closer to power. this gets you the party; hold-outs are effectively frozen out completely. 3) maintain broad popularity by careful and very adroit polling. find the hot button issues and effective slogans and shape yourself around those things 4) always try to shift your core constituency - the old organised working class is dead as an entity which can win elections by itself, so an appeal must be made to new sections of society in post-thatcher britain, this meant a firm swing away from socialism, alliance with murdoch at all costs (historically an incredibly successful strategy in britain), a massive realignment to attack the tories' hold on low/middle-income homeowners without offending the rest of the people involved, then entrenching deeply into the halls of government. it also meant abandoning any serious reformist ambition other than that which polling expected from labour to repent for past sins, i.e. strict fiscal rules and vociferously embracing public order as a value. it also meant giving an australian archlich veto over government policy. this cocktail worked very well until 2003 and the general bleeding started in earnest. by the time brown lost, the labour brand was as toxic as ever, and point 2) meant that a lot of the people in the rest of the party were complete nitwits selected for political loyalty who had any sort of actual political skill basically purposefully bred out of them. blairite revivalism is the dumbest poo poo unless you can somehow bring murdoch back on board, which i sincerely doubt is possible
