🚨This is the story of how UK & EU goods are STILL going into Russia in vast quantities, despite sanctions. Of how the economic war waged by the G7 is failing. Of how I witnessed sanctions rules broken in plain sight. But above all else it’s the story of a chart... 🧵

This is a smart proposal - don’t change planning law; just change incentives:

In the last 24 hours, two of our leading media sources (NYT & WSJ) have produced research pieces with hard data on why the U.S. should ban TikTok. Here is the NYT's killer chart. Tiktok systematically censors 80-99% of posts on certain viewpoints, relative to Instagram. 1/3

This is broadly the picture across pollsters right now, but important not to forget how unprecedented this is. In 1997, Tories still led on some key issues (economy, Europe). Today, they lead on no issues and are far behind on the ones people care most about.

From my latest polling - what are the most important issues facing the country, and which party would do a better job on them? (Note absence of dots on the blue side...) LordAshcroftPolls.com
