“Labour should not welcome the departure of an electoral asset as profitable as Yousaf.” 🖊️ @freddiejh8 newstatesman.com/politics/scotl…
I spoke to @ShippersUnbound about his new Brexit book. I found it fascinating as an insight into a subject I couldn’t always bear to pay close attention to at the time. morningcall.substack.com/p/mc-feature-t…
“Farage strutted around the stage like the halftime entertainment, regaling tales about Brussels cafés and pubs where he was barred when he worked as an MEP between 1999 and 2020. This is when the police arrived.” 🖊️ @freddiejh8 newstatesman.com/world/europe/2…
And on that note, I am clearly VERY MUCH open to work! Please get in touch with any opportunities. Paper reviews, analysis, features, whatever. And obviously, full- time positions too but that goes without saying! My DMs are open.

Labour’s 2029 general election strategy is already set: “we said it would take ten years of national renewal, let us finish the job”.
As I reported last week, some SNP MPs in Westminster think a drubbing at the general election could be the trigger to remove Humza Yousaf as leader. newstatesman.com/politics/scotl…
“One SNP MP mused to me recently that a shoddy performance at the general election – securing fewer seats than Labour would count as shoddy – could trigger a move against Yousaf’s leadership.” 📫 Today’s Morning Call with @freddiejh8 newstatesman.com/politics/scotl…
