This from a man who is in a position of power to help reduce more than 40k countrymen and women shoot each other *every* year, and does nothing.
Let him who is without sin etc etc.

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.

Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse.

It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police.

Le décès de Etienne #Davignon nous remplit de tristesse. Sa proximité avec Jacques Delors et la détermination de son engagement pro européen 🇪🇺 font de Davignon une personnalité qui a marqué notre histoire. Il va manquer à nous tous et au dessin européen. @DelorsInstitute

[MagellanQuest 🇪🇺/acc @MagellanQuest]

People mock the EU as “bureaucracy”.
But that bureaucracy turned a continent of borders, currencies and wars into a space where 450 million people can travel, pay, call, study and work almost as if it were domestic.
That is not boring.
That is civilization becoming usable.

It’s also been a while since I’ve updated the @commonslibrary summary of the UK constitution, which now takes account of a reformed House of Lords, more paid UK Ministers, a new Senedd voting system and much more:

Peter Kellner’s 3 early points
1 Reform did less well than last year
2 Labour and Tories did better
3 Greens vote spread too thinly to convert share similar to Lab/Con/LibDem into seats

[Gavin Barwell @GavinBarwell]

You're going to hear a lot about how Reform is now a national party.

It's not true, as John Curtice sets out here. They're doing very well in areas that voted strongly for Brexit and not very well at all in areas that voted strongly Remain @Prosper_UK_

Finally someone has said it.

Political reporting is hard. Impartiality is hard. It should be. But partisan pundits decrying impartial journalism because it doesn’t fit their own bias is a very dangerous road to go down.

Anyway. Carry on.
