My column on Humza Yousaf's resignation in a febrile week for political leadership - and the best test of whether diversity has become a 'new normal' in public life easterneye.biz/scotland-humza…
@sundersays The BBC, like many, has got confused between people and roles. The leader of the SNP has resigned. The First Minister has not.
Cons hit a trough in what tends to be a better series for the Conservatives: they got their last ever 30% score in this More in Common poll, six and a half months ago in mid-October 2023.

The thing is, if you want to play the game of 'the mayoral results are indicative of wider trends' (they're not), then - considering swing in general polls, plus no Reform intervention but LD intervention - the actual good result threshold is at least 25-30pt victory for Houchen.

.@KirstyWark says to the SNP's Keith Brown: "If you don't have a leader in 28 days you are heading for an election." This is 100% WRONG. The clock starts ticking from the day a First Minister has resigned; laid out in the Scotland Act 1998. Yousaf is still in post.#BBC #Newsnight

It’s a similar story if we look at modern day segregation. Tens of millions of Americans live in cities whose neighbourhoods are still significantly segregated by race. This is true of very few British cities, and London is more genuinely diverse/mixed than ~any major US city.

Theresa May came to office promising to tackle "burning injustices" on race and opportunity. Her race audit is a pioneering initiative with real potential, now overshadowed by the burning injustices of the Windrush issue. Why reveals a lot about the Prime Minister's worldview.
ASTONISHING from Rishi Sunak He called out Islamism that is "deliberately undermining Britain". He called for extremism to be stamped out WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT @LeeAndersonMP_ SAID! On my show one week ago Yet Lee lost the whip for it! It sounded like Lee wrote the speech!
Too right that this would be an important step. In fact local authorities like Manchester City Council could assist by lodging Sustainable Communities Act proposals with govt seeking devolved power of choice on who to lodge public notices with. I could write a proposal in 2hrs.
@Samfr Step 1: Reform the archaic rules around public notices so that digital and monthly print publications get a slice of this ~£40m market. Instead of the big media groups running zombie newspapers, indy brands would squeeze a lot of journalism from this ££. publicinterestnews.org.uk/post/how-do-we…
@sajidjavid wrong to say Labour broke permanently with MCB. I re-established relations in 2010 for good reason: MCB represents significant body (not all) of Muslim opinion/action and govt policy improved by engagement. @MuslimCouncil
@sundersays I agree in general with this approach. Must have same rules across all groups, applied consistently (not only Jews & Muslims, also whites and men). Key is tight definitions of terms so we can identify threshold points when one value eclipses another. And must have wide consensus
This isn’t dog whistle, it’s fog horn. Sunak will remove the whip for this if he has an ounce of either decency or strength.
Conservative MP Lee Anderson tells GB News that he thinks Sadiq Khan has "given our capital city away" to Islamists, who are "his mates". "Islamists have got control of Khan and they’ve got control of London," he says.
I’m going to call this out for what it is - foul, stinking racism. #disgusting
Lee Anderson’s comments are unambiguously racist and Islamophobic. Rishi Sunak needs to immediately remove the whip. If he is too weak, then people will take their own view of the modern Conservative Party.
@sundersays I'm not seeing it. Sunak isn't ever accused of being "controlled by Hindu nationalists" because obviously that's not true. Khan is accused of being controlled by "Islamists" because - to an extent - that is true.
Shepherd's Bush market - in my old manor - have been resisting gentrification for years. But now they are facing their toughest battle.

Having the first (first since Major?) working class PM will be important.
