@krishgm Do you know any Reform voters? I do, they used to be Tory, and they voted Reform to smack the Tories. Labour's landslide was, for them, an entirely unintended consequence!

@AlanKelloggs Do you know, amazingly, there are people allowed to vote who don't even have a first degree?

@afneil Dig a bit deeper, guys, it's because the fucking French are making the engine blades and they're breaking!

Why on earth do foreign people want to come to Broken Britain? Pakistan GDP per capita £1,500, Broken Britain GDP per capita £33,000.

"Britain is spending millions to send pilots overseas for training because the RAF doesn't have enough fast-jet training aircraft, it can be revealed." Later: "an issue with the Rolls-Royce engine on the jet involved the engine blades supplied by a French company wearing out."

@DAaronovitch Not very helpful.. "a form of nationalism wherein the nation and nationality are defined in terms of ethnicity, with emphasis on an ethnocentric (and in some cases an ethnocratic) approach to various political issues related to national affirmation of a particular ethnic group".
