Why the Muslim Vote campaign is a glimpse into a horrifying future
When the circus finally arrived, it offered the usual attractions. The old rituals were a comfort. John Curtice, the swing-o-meter, Laura Kuenssberg and Jeremy Vine performed the familiar motions, not to mention the irrepressible Count Binface.

Every Tory MP is to blame for this defeat – myself included
Who’s to blame? All of us – every Conservative MP in the last Parliament – has a share of the blame for this defeat. For my part, I made life harder for my Party by calling publicly for tougher policy on migration and defence, and so made negative headlines about Tory splits and factions.

Boris Johnson blames 'Pied Piper' Nigel Farage for role in 'destruction' of Tories
Boris Johnson says Nigel Farage played a "significant" role in the "destruction" of the Tories – while taking a swipe at those who ousted him from Number 10 back in 2022. Reform UK have secured five seats in the House of Commons including one for its leader Mr Farage, who succeeded in being elected in Clacton, Essex. Former prime minister Mr Johnson has dissected his party's performance in his Daily Mail column, saying the reasons why the Tories lost so many MPs were "complex" - but "the Yucatan asteroid in this catastrophe was obvious: it was Reform".

Will the Starmers be the first prime ministerial family since the Wilsons not to live in Downing Street?
The move to Downing Street is a symbolic moment for any incoming prime minister, the most obvious proof of your drastically changed situation. You do not merely run the shop, as Mrs Thatcher said, you live above it. Downing Street is one of the most prestigious political residences on Earth, perhaps second only to the White House. For five years, barring calamity, it is yours, for you to decorate with all the golden Lulu Lytle wallpaper you like.

British Jews have reason to be frightened. This time it’s not Labour
On October 8, as the world was beginning to comprehend what had just happened in southern Israel, most decent people – including many who would go on to decry Israel’s retaliatory campaign – expressed genuine horror at what Gaza’s Islamist barbarians had done.

Starmer’s great weakness is being revealed
Keir Starmer campaigned as changed Labour, and now he will govern as New Labour. It’s not difficult to imagine the consternation felt by Starmer’s critics on the Left at the news that some of the big beasts from the eras of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown are making a comeback. Most significant is the return of Alan Milburn, Blair’s health secretary, who will advise his successor, Wes Streeting, on reform of the NHS.

Labour is doomed unless it acts fast on migration and the NHS
You can point to Rishi Sunak’s poor leadership, you can talk about the Tories’ endless pointless errors. However, fundamentally, the Conservatives were ejected from office because NHS waiting lists were too long, the economy was weak, and immigration was uncontrolled.
