a lot of people did this, but jst want to say: thank you to my english teachers who made a loser 11 year old think she might be good at something - Mrs Wallwork, Mrs Hadj, Mr Eccles, you will not see this but teachers, you make kids believe their wildest dreams might come true x

THIS car video is why Tim Walz is so loved. No one else can deliver a message so authentically & get to a demographic that Democrats have struggled often to reach. So good.

[Ryan Holmes @ryanholmes91]

The oratory skills of this man are incredible. His pacing and rhythm for delivering this is just 😍

I know everyone is obsessed about Taylor Swift's endorsement, but if @jasonsudeikis would hit the campaign trail with Coach Walz as Ted Lasso, this thing would be over.

Pete Buttigieg on why he goes on Fox News is worth a few minutes of your time

[chyea ok @chyeaok]

Pete Buttigieg was on Fox News this morning and the anchor tried his best, but I am convinced this is a hazing ritual for them or something.

[Ryan Holmes @ryanholmes91]

This is giving me @EdwardJDavey election campaign vibes.

Katie Ledecky balancing a glass of chocolate milk on her head while swimming is more impressive than her seven Olympic gold medals

JD Vance says you have no “physical commitment to the future of this country” unless you have kids. I disagree.

So what results do you get if you ask Sir Humphrey's polling questions? @IpsosUK decided to try it. We showed 1,000 Brits his pro national service poll and 1,000 his anti national service poll. Results:

Sample A: 45% in favour of national service, 38% say no.
Sample B: 48% oppose national service, 34% say no.

What does it all mean? Well, obviously we wouldn't ever do this poll for real, wording is too leading & there are rules about transparency of q wording / ordering.

But it does show the importance of question wording, watching the detail and looking at more than just one poll when you want to understand what the public really think on an issue. Especially in election year.
