OPINION POLLS 2024-2029
Honestly, would be amazing to see conservatives almost lower than SNP in seats! Come a general election I think things would fall apart fairly quickly for reform though during the campaign. All it takes is for Labour/Cons to move a few % higher and those 377 seats come crumbling down. Plus I'm pretty sure the conservatives will change leader and try to appeal to their core voters once again by the time the next GE rolls around.

The Official Labour Calmer Steering Thread (mk III)
Horrid. Don't see why they just don't just increase NI back to where it was before the Tories cut it before the election. That would raise enough money that they don't need to implement such harsh cuts. Easiest thing for them to do would be to re-join the single market. Massive boost to economy would result and basically forgo the need for all these cuts and would drive growth. But they don't have the courage to do something like that (no courage at all given they are targeting some of the most vulnerable people in society). An election won't happen - but a leadership challenge could occur at some point.

RPDR | All Stars | Season 10
Honestly I was a little disappointed with Ginger I thought the top 2 would've been Denali and Cucu - although I think Cucu's runway kept her out of the running so could see Denali + Daya. Not to say Ginger didn't do badly at all. Even Acid did quite well. Daya and Ginger gave another great lip sync - happy to see Daya win it. So happy Cucu got through! Honestly she should've been top 2 at least once. I do think she's been the most consistent and completely outperformed peeople's expectations. Now bring on the merge and the wild card queen!! *_* MIB back on screen is going to be Drama and a mess, can't wait!

She's a US country singer who's been building a nice fanbase - she's been touring non-stop since 2023 and done well with a few singles. Think it's more so due to interest in her new song + country music being bigger in the US (country music in the US is being represented a lot more accurately on streaming services the last few years or so). Would be nice if she could have a hit in the UK!

JADE - Plastic Box • 4th Single
This is such a good song! The album is going to be so good *_* Hope this can go top 40 at least, if not in its debut week then to climb!

Honestly I think it will depend on the challenges! I could see Kennedy and Shuga killing it as well. Then Dusty will likely be a dark horse. Hershii's drag has come a long way as well. Honestly that could be a really exciting/competitve bracket!

RPDR | All Stars | Season 10
There was nothng lowkey about it, Cucu was robbed!!! 2nd week is a row Cucu has impressed me and I thought she should've been top 2 over Denali! Even Daya could've been top 2 over Denali - I just didn't really like her verse/performance. I thought Acid Betty did better too! I really enjoyed Ginger but to be honest this is the 2nd group challenge in a row and a country themed one at that. Like come on I think the Bracket has great queens but can you do proper solo challenges. I would've loved a pure solo design challenge - Alyssa, Daya & Acid would've killed it. I think if the challenges went something like this then I think there would've been more balance: Design Challenge Roast Acting Ginger would do well at 2/3 still, but honestly people like Denali, Daya & Acid I think could all kill a roast if done well. Then an acting challenge I think could be anyone's game depending on the characters. I feel like the bracket feels lackluster because of the way the production has set up the challenges - it basically feels like the Ginger show and supporting cast. Even the first challenge they added the story bit. Without that Ginger would've sank on the design challenge.

Estimated ACR status updates 2025
Happy to see a few songs going on ACR which should help make a little room for newer songs to get new peaks. Honestly, I still really like "Pink Pony Club" and it sounds great with this weather so not mad it's on SCR still.

I think it would be fine if it was just 2 if they gave the queens 4 episodes to rack ups wins/points. Would make for a fairly nice 15-16 episode season then (12 weeks of brackets, 2-3 weeks of merge then final). Maybe they are going to do something like a massive lip sync smackdown to decide the final queens for the merge? 12 queens would work quite nicely for that. 6 pairs -> 3 pairs -> top 3 final lip sync (they go through to merge then winner of last lip sync gets cash prize).

OPINION POLLS 2024-2029
Ye things look to be a case of steady Labour government will slowly turn the tide back in their favour with less of a show/big hiccups that reform could latch onto and more positive news. I think as well whenever Kemi is ousted as conservative leader that could see the conservatives start gaining/eating into reform again.

That's true but you could argue that it's because they generate the most tax revenue. It would be interesting to see a map of tax revenue vs expenditure for various areas. Although I do agree with this to an extent to help funnel more investment further north to try and reduce the north/south divide. Particularly as to make areas generate more tax revenue you need to invest first (The SE/London have a rather nice cycle currently of investment/growth - it would be great to see that replicated further north in places such as Newcastle or Leeds).

Assisted Dying Bill
Really happy to see this voted for - finally a humane choice for those suffering. It will still need to go through the lords and I wouldn't be surprised if it goes back to the commons. But it would be great to finally allow people the right to die without worrying about relatives etc being charged for assisting. It'll also mean people won't have to do things such as travel to Swtizerland.
