The latest Ian Dunt missive is spot on. It’s on Substack, but I like his work so much I hold my nose and read it there.

Labour is inching towards the right small boats policy.

Ignore the noise: The right compromises are being made and the wrong ones are being avoided.

Just finished this, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the UK parliamentary system and UK democracy. It’s a very readable deep dive into what does and doesn’t work at the moment (only published last month), and although it’s depressing along the way, it points to some relatively straightforward fixes at the end. We can change this if we choose. Read it and tell your MP! #books #democracy #Parliament
