While social media is polarising, evidence suggests AI may nudge people towards the centre. This holds true of all studied models. Grok is more right-leaning than other models, but also has depolarising effects. By @jburnmurdoch.

The Orbán mafia can see that it’s over. The "Dynasty" has begun moving its stolen wealth abroad. Orbán’s longtime ally and friend, György Matolcsy, the former national bank governor is now quietly liquidating his domestic holdings. Orbán’s oligarch, Lőrinc Mészáros, is securing

For years, it's been impossible to ascertain who was actually behind the off-shore shell companies that owned much of London's real estate. Now, we've found out. https://t.co/Tlr8237rGa

I'm not the first person to think about this, but now we see how Essiedu looks in the role. And yeah, "Snape's Worst Memory" (Order of the Phoenix) is simply not going to work well in this show, if it ever gets there.

‘I believe in a Young Labour that reaches into every corner of the country, where all young members can be led by a sense of hope and optimism for our future’ 🌹 @LabourList You can vote for me to be your next Young Labour chair (again) now! https://t.co/cDrJebCKWe

✨ Ballots Dropping ✨ You’ve done it once… and now you get to do it again 😅 We need an effective youth and student wing that puts young people front and centre of our party. Vote for the candidates that will empower and stand up for you, vote Organise 🌹

Interestingly, the presentation at the NEC didn’t actually contain percentages that related to the members survey, so the information contained in this briefing to LabourList is brand new even for me! Kudos to @LabourList for their sourcing.

The fact a walk around the coast of England starts in Sussex is apt. England begins here! The site of some the very first Saxon landings, and the kingdom of the first Bretwalda over the English Heptarchy, Ælle of Sussex, plus where that era ended, and a new one started in 1066.

Great to have the backing of Emma Hardy MP. Emma embodies Labour values from her time as a trade union organiser to being a long standing constituency MP. If you want these ideas, a voice for young members in Y&H and proper campaigns then use your vote for me Wednesday!

EXCL: Ed Miliband’s Net Zero dash is “impoverishing” families, a Labour MP warns. Henry Tufnell writes in today’s @TheSun demanding ministers scrap the ban on new North Sea drilling, and ditch “oppressive” green taxes. He says: “Offshoring our carbon emissions might give some a

“There is no specific assessment that the Iranians are targeting the UK or even could if they wanted to” Cabinet minister Steve Reed responds to a report from the Israeli Defence Forces that the Iranian regime has “missiles that can reach London, Paris or Berlin.” #bbclaurak

If you want to argue public spaces should not be used for worship - because that’s exclusionary - fine. But condemning just one religious group, in this case Muslims, is bigotry. I’m not sure what the debate is.

This. This. This. Agency is the bedrock of the political era arriving around us. It is the evolution of Thatcher’s ‘Freedom’ to Blair’s ‘Opportunity’ to Vote Leave’s ‘Control’. Successful political projects will grasp it, those fighting the tide will fall into irrelevance.

Not understanding a policy is not justification for attacking it. There is no “row back” on settlement. The period is extending from 5 to 10 years. As has always been the case, and explained consistently, we have just closed a consultation that considers transitional

The worst thing the Conservatives did was taking away hope from young people. Hope that if you work hard, you can build a better life. Today I spoke in the Chamber about the generational inequalities my generation has faced.

Very, very bad news. As I wrote in Material World, Ras Laffan is one of the most important industrial sites not just in the Gulf but in the world. LNG, helium, other products. Massive. Whatever happens next, serious damage to this site could reverberate for months, maybe years.

Do you wonder why you can't get mobile phone service in your town, city, or village? You're not alone. Today, I have published a paper with @yimbyinitiative (commissioned by MobileUK) on unlocking investment into mobile infrastructure through planning reform. A thread 🧵

Brits disagree with Angela Rayner on migration policy according to this @Moreincommon_ polling

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS Also I think you will find his anger is because his poll ratings are still plummetings. Also try consulting first, rather than demanding. Oh, and stop being so rude.
