Rishi Sunak’s snap election decision is likely motivated by damage control ( www.theguardian.com )

I love whoever decided to drown out Sunak's speech (which was inexplicably done outdoors, on a rainy day) with 'Things Can Only Get Better' on loudspeakers from nearby.

I wonder if it was the same person who played the Benny Hill theme over Boris Johnson's resignation.

Free trade, open borders, taco trucks on every corner. Latest discussion thread: April 2024 We in m/Neoliberal support: - Free trade and competitive markets - Immigration - YIMBYism – ‘yes in my backyard’-ism - Carbon taxes - Internationalism and supranational governance – e.g. the EU, UN, NATO, IMF - LGBTQ+ rights - Democracy, human rights, civil liberties and due process Neoliberals can be found in many political parties and we are not dogmatic supporters of specific parties. But we tend to find ourselves agreeing more often with parties that espouse liberal values, internationalism and centrist economics, such as the Democrats in the US, Liberal Democrats in the UK, FDP in Germany, Renaissance/MoDem in France, the Liberal Party in Canada, and so on.
