    >From this week, following the Reform UK challenge, YouGov has agreed to publish the results to the question without the constituency prompt, as well as the one with the prompt which was already automatically part of the data.

    >Nigel Farage is claiming this as a victory for transparency. YouGov’s methodology, however, has not changed and they stand by their approach. So here are YouGov’s raw voting intention numbers this week without a constituency prompt, and before YouGov apply the MRP model:

    >**Note the figure here for Reform UK is the same this week when the question is asked both with and without the constituency prompt – 19%.**

    Personally, I am perfectly happy seeing the raw data with “don’t know”, especially as it’s difficult to know where these people go, but I don’t see how this helps Reform. It’s also very Trumpian the way Reform attacks pollsters

    Always weird when you encounter a Hindutva in the wild

    To my mind, few places on earth are as synonymous with a multitude of faiths as India, the birthplace of Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists, a refuge for Zorastrians, and with significant and longstanding populations of Muslims, not to mention populations of Jews and Christians too

    Begging China to help in the Iran situation may be trumps biggest foreign policy fumble, and that is saying something.

    Way to tell a geopolitical rival “Our navy and air force are short on ammo, and we are unwilling to risk anything that would actually endanger our troops”.

    I would not be surprised is China is seriously pondering a Taiwan surprise attack while the USA is trapped in a quamire of their own making

    Scouring the internet, on a quest to find people who look at DLSS 5 and go “yeah that looks good, I find this esthetically pleasing”

  8. reiterating my disgust at the kentucky school choice bill and the mere existence of such a beggar state. kentucky, ohio, and Indiana, so much damage have done unimaginable amounts of damage to the country and transitively to the world. i will vote for any candidate willing to punish those states.
