Starmer just needs to make that party conference speech, take of his mask, and teabag the elctorate with his policies (raise minimum wage by £1).

(*) over four years, for former Fulbright scholars who teach in primary schools for five terms and raise the OFSTED rating

She added: “It is barbaric that a tiny minority should take command of public discourse and terrify those who disagree with them.”

Based on Guardian & BBC headlines, the only thing that has warranted any amount of attention recently is Afghanistan.

My estimates for other headline topics

Plymouth shooting: 2 days
IPCC report: 1 day
COVID: Now and then, mainly on 12+ jabbing

Negative numbers are just inverted numbers, it's pretty simple to intuit imo, or I never had an issue
If you draw them out on a horizontal line it means you have 1 and -1 to either side of 0 in the middle

I only found out about imaginary numbers recently but they just add a new dimension,
so if you're drawing them out, as well as the horizontal line going from 1 to -1 with 0 in the middle, there's a vertical line with i and -i with zero in the middle.
It makes every number 2d instead of 1d and makes for some snappy and easy 2d coordinate calculations.

And they do that simply by imagining there's a number that's the square root of -1(the square root of 1 is 1, but -1 x -1 is 1 again. Another square root of 1),
Well let's just say the square root of -1 is a number called i
same as we get negatives by imagining theres a number when you do 4-5 =?
Or fractional numbers by imagining there's a number when you do 7/2=?
Or imagining that numbers exist at all

Theyr called imaginary numbers derogitarily and it stuck, iirc the guy who proved them thought negative numbers were witchcraft and instead complicated things even more.
The polite term is complex numbers
But every number, even reliable old 5, who you'd think would never betray you, actually is a complex number that has an imaginary component, it's just zero, and you'd write it as 5+0i if you wanted to freak the normies.
I think it'd all be as easy to grasp as negatives if they'd taught anyone it as kids.

I probably got something wrong somewhere, I've only recently tried to relearn maths.

We could try going into 3D, adding a third axis along which to numerate. But unlike the complex numbers, there's no way to make this into a system of arithmetic!

It can be done in 4D of you are willing to care about the order in which you do your multiplication. There's a famous bridge about it.
