How stupid is Donald? He chose to give his last speech before the midterms at a location closely associated with his incompetence and dishonesty. Yes, that stupid!

Trump is now daydreaming about people from Iowa and Indiana (whites!) being brutally murdered in DC

James Cleverly backed Boris Johnson to be Tory leader - that alone makes him unfit to be the Mayor of London #politicslive. Then I remembered the incumbent backed Corbyn 🙄

The Trump family believe their voters are stupid.
Frankly, the evidence suggests they're correct.

As a reminder, the Trump Taj Mahal was the dirtiest fucking hotel I've ever seen and run into bankruptcy by Donald J. Trump.

Dr. El-Sayed is a fighter for our American Constitution, he’s a fighter for our American Democracy, and he’s a fighter against the corrupt, lawless, and anti-American leadership currently in the White House. That’s why I’m in his corner 100%.

Webb states that Sayed is a ‘firebrand’. Is there any cliche he won’t employ when talking about anybody to the left of Reagan?
Justin Webb’s hope that US midterms polling is wrong is almost palpable.

I see that #r4today have sent Justin Webb to America to give his "expert view" on the mid-term elections. Aside from my resentment at having to pay a single penny for Webb's jolly, is there not someone more objective and less partisan in the BBC who could cover these elections?

Indeed. As I wrote here, "Truss did not fall into No. 10 from a spaceship like some twin-set Mr Bean". She was the flagbearer for a whole ecosystem of thinktanks, columnists & newspapers, who find it easier to treat her as an aberration than to accept their own culpability

Since Conservative party policy is that no care workers should be able to stay in the UK & the government has decided [on reflection] that that they should , the logic is now to defend the [popular] principle of letting them stay, not telling them all to leave
