The weird power saga of my house continues. Apparently we're going to get electricity from an external generator parked outside the house for the foreseeable future.

I assumed he meant he himself started doing a YTS scheme (as in he was the one working for £23 pw full time or whatever it was), not running it? (Not to excuse him in the slightest! Just how I interpreted the comment!)

I think the point is to try and blame it on "lazy scroungers" as governments do everything.

I'm starting to think that the Tories don't have the faintest idea what people actually want. There's this - from Boris - alongside Grant Chaps telling the Telegraph "uh yeah, but if train staff go on strike then everyone will decide to work from home for ever and ever", and my main thought is 'Yeah, but you haven't actually explained why that's bad.' I get that they can't come straight out and say why it's bad - because admitting that they're getting it in the neck from business never sounds good - but they're so bad at politics that they can't even come up with some other lame excuse. It's like Zahawi's Sky News interview from Sunday - they desperately try to reframe every awkward question to something they can use a soundbite to answer, but it never answers the actual question. So they just end up sounding like failed Turing Test candidates whenever they're interviewed by someone with the slightest interest in getting a straight answer.

TACD posted:Is it just your house specifically that’s cursed or does every house on your street get a generator? Apparently it's just us. We live above a barber which shut down during COVID and the owners are now living in Greece. UK Power need to tunnel under the barbershop so I guess we have to wait for them to return. Probably should research generators in the meantime.

The Majority of Tory voters are retirees and near-retirees in comfortable jobs, remember. Their rhetoric doesn't actually have to match reality, it has to match the perceived reality of their base. Which helps when they share the same delusions as their base.

Their rhetoric doesn't actually have to match reality, it has to match the perceived reality of their base. Which helps when they share the same delusions as their base. Yes, given that foundation for their vote, electorally they just need to pick up one or two more groups to win. This gives them a lot of flexibility as to what group’s reality to choose to acknowledge. Which can also lead to indecision and infighting. They don’t know what they want, because they have a range of different things they could choose. In contrast, Labour need 4 or 5 voting blocs just to get up to parity. There may well be nothing they could say that will fully acknowledge the reality of all of those disparate groups. If a message does exist that works for everyone, there won’t be much of an element of choice in whether to adopt it.
