Yesterday, three young constituents told me they can no longer express their political views to teachers and have to hide their conservative opinion at school - ie the majority opinion in this country.

I mean obviously it's a lie but in terms of the game as it is being played they want thought-policed "quotas".
But want they really want is to just close down a lot of places of learning. Too many migrants giving kids the libworm.

There might be good points in that Outline article but opening with a complaint that Taylor Swift's songs aren't about how awesome being successful is is daft that I bailed out there

Maybe...kind of. This is sort of lie that becomes true just by imagination. Conservatives that feel unable to speak because they want to feel unable to speak, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Not that they aren't helped out in that regard but it becomes true, and who can disprove it?

Well it would but they are unclam and never not speaking as they always do. But yes the point holds. They want to war more than they want to win.

There's an internalization process going on somewhere. My cousin definitely believe it to be true, but I've never been able to find out what it is he doesn't feel able to say or what will happen if he says it, just that everyone thinks it (though I'm unclear on this bit because I was under the impression they felt unable to say it to each other)

Britain is one of the kindest, least racist societies in the world but the way Labour politicians like Dawn Butler rush to think the worst of our institutions, like the police, explains why their Red Wall seats tumbled so spectacularly to Boris Johnson.

The Metropolitan Police said in a statement that an officer had "incorrectly entered the registration into a police computer which identified the car as registered to an address in Yorkshire.
News reports just trotting this out as if it's a reasonable explanation. So they just type the registration of every car they see driven by black people?

This bad treatment of Dawn Butler can be added to the shocking treatment that she has already received, and for which she really needs ... police protection?
People talk a lot about 'mental health' nowadays, usually meaning Prince William talking about going for a jog. But if anyone is having their 'mental health' damaged surely it is someone who is threatened every day by members of the public and then victimised by the state that is supposed to protect her. It must be very difficult for her to know where to turn.

I can understand Corbyn is reticent about commenting on anything right now as it plays like he's trying to undermine Starmer. At this point though he might as well say "fuck it" and go ahead.

Completely understand why this was so upsetting.
