Logan Roy treated Roman with less disdain after his ‘pic mishap’ than Brian Cox treated the Worzel Gummidge of British populism just now. Quality telly. #C4AmericaDecides.

‘The Coming Storm’ by @ggatehouse is, unsurprisingly, turning out to be the perfect audiobook for a road trip through Texas in the final weeks of the 2024 Presidential election campaign. Gatehouse is one of the best chroniclers of the paranoid style of modern US politics.

God I miss decent long-form reporting and analysis on #Newsnight by brilliant journalists, rather than this ridiculous 3D tabloid-lite format of 2 Dings versus 2 Dongs. @BBCNewsnight.

I managed to watch #C4BritainDecides for just over 0.003 of a peco second. What a woeful panel designed soley for the pathetic ding dong politics that most of the country just said it was thoroughly sick of. Massive own goal by @Channel4.
