a post-pandemic low
It’s peak guardian to ignore that it’s still higher than pre-pandemic, and not have a graph in the article. Then have a classic “the poors are dumb” headline www.ons.gov.uk/…/yearendingjune2025

The last strong left wing politician America had was Huey Long, he was assassinated.
In America, anyone who is left wing, actually willing to do what is necessary to effect change, and who gets vaguely close to power, either has their reputation assassinated or is assassinated more literally.

- Comment on If WW3 breaks out, what countries are going to be on which side? 5 weeks ago:
Russia and China being allies is a given. Iran and the DPRK will be on their side too.
Israel, the USA, Japan, and parts of Europe will no doubt be on the opposite side, with the more sensible parts of Europe staying out of it.
India I have no idea, they’re nominally a USA ally, but I could also see them trying to stay neutral.
China world no doubt take the opportunity to reclaim the island of Taiwan.
I imagine a lot of Arab states would try to remain neutral at first, but Israel would probably take the opportunity to invade the rest of Syria, at which point some may be dragging into the conflict.
