@polanskydj And Westminster only has the power to legislate on this in England and Wales.

Postliberal weirdos get really mad when you point out that Yarvin, Bannon, and the rest of their heroes were lockdowners at the outset of Covid.

Receipts included.

@tamcohen Hi, you have referred in your article to “the green party in the UK”. There is no such entity. Zack Polanski has been elected leader if the green party of England and Wales which has no affiliation to the green parties of the other nations of the UK such and the Scottish Greens

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@sociallecturnal Yes, it is so far..

@MarinaHyde 40,000 announced by @thebookseller

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@NicholasTyrone A persuasive idea indeed!

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@lewis_goodall I suspect she means Whitehall only types.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

Apparently an actual real event/thing/get together or however it is constituted.

And the award for "Maddest Party Conference Event, 2024" goes too....@ConHome 👏👏👏

Interesting comments in the thread

X/Twitter user numbers now down by almost a third over the last year in the UK, and by almost a fifth in the US.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@KevinASchofield So, remember Liam Fox and his ‘trade’ chum swanning around on the ticket some years ago?

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@Gabriel_Pogrund Liam Fox vibes…..!

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@Will_Tanner @TomMcTague @unherd Hmm.. prisoner early release was/was going to be Tory policy and everyone knew that. Everyone also knew last year that Grangemouth was moving to close its refinery function and become a hub for finished fuels. Hardly Labour’s fault.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@NickCohen4 Precisely. I don’t feel that at present the EU wants to pursue a process by which the UK is a little bit back in then half in half out then mostly in then boom, it’s all up in the air again. But other realities are also available, I am sure!

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

Can’t argue with that!

I've often tried to imagine what it must have been like standing in the Maritime Hotel, Belfast 1964 watching Them perform.

Enough to make your head explode I'd say.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@salonium Very interesting. This is what X/Twitter is for!

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@Samfr I thought this seemed familiar. Parris is one who signals himself as the avuncular right minded type who embraces difference while repeatedly othering those he finds troublesome.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@theoldbuilding Erm, no, that is just horrible pastiche….

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

@DmitryOpines 145m people live in Russia (fewer than Bangladesh, more than Mexico!) spread across its vast land area. Population widely dispersed. Increasingly difficult to generate troop numbers, I imagine, when casualty rates are reportedly so high.

[Mike Shepherd @MikeShep101]

This I like!

[David Sheppard @OilSheppard]

The ‘UK’?

Did the protests suddenly win Wimbledon or something?
