Show PostMe, on the Westminster Hour (from 35:36), talking about research with @mbarnfield.bsky.social and @karlpike.bsky.social on voters views of the long-term - and how Brits think our politics is particularly short-termist. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Show PostThis episode of @lordspeaker.parliament.uk's Corner with @qmulsse.bsky.social's Peter Hennessy is delightful. As the King said of the Queen Mother, one of Peter's great heroes, him and Enid are "life enhancers". Their stoicism and good cheer in the face of Parkinson's should be a model to us all.
