🧵What do the public think about the riots and those taking part in them? A reflection of legitimate concerns Or the actions of far right thugs? I've written for @FT today on new @moreincommon_ polling and focus group research into Britain & the riots. ft.com/content/46450035-2be0…

This digitally-altered image of Kamala Harris posing alongside Jeffrey Epstein is being shared in the wake of Joe Biden's endorsement of her as the new Democratic nominee. The real image, captured in 2015, shows Harris posing with her husband Douglas Emhoff.

🚨 No one should spend 18 yrs in jail for trying to steal a coat or 11 yrs for stealing a mobile phone! I’ve signed a letter calling on new Justice Secretary @ShabanaMahmood to act urgently to end one of the most monumental injustices of the past half-century - the #IPPscandal

The making of the original Portillo moment. I was there. “The Observer polled the constituency,” said Stephen. “We’re only 4 points behind Portillo.” Silence in the room. This changed everything. An unwinnable seat now was knife edged. And this was no ordinary incumbent.

Just off for a hearing in a rape case. Allegation reported in 2021, trial not before 2025, if we’re all lucky. No podium speeches from the Prime Minister about this. No promises to magic up more judges, courts or lawyers. Just silence, and the threat of further cuts to come.
