What are those robes made from, ? At the last coronation, the TV pictures gave an impression of velvet or silk. Gliding on velvet or silk towards the throne, like a young mermaid.
With Charles it will be more like the stately procession of the older organic farmer, looking curious and inquisitive about his villagers and citizens, I expect.
Though don't you reckon, KCIII will make a better showing than, say, GIV? And a far less expense!
IIRC, number of decades ago there was renovations in House of Lords (perhaps after WW2 bombing?) that included refurbishing the Woolsack.

I'd expect the Conservatives to reach 30% in NEV. Simply because Reform won't translate its poll rating into votes on the ground.
I expect Reform vote to stay home where it doesn’t have an option, as well as a chunk of Conservative vote staying home too.
Tories 22% in the NEV. so let’s see friday afternoon, not long to go.
That would imply that the Conservatives will do 3% worse than in 1995.
A year when the Conservatives lost councils like Fenland, Hertsmere, Dartford, Gravesham, to Labour. Nothing indicates to me that such a result is on the cards this time around, but we'll see.
So who's going to be swearing their allegiance while saluting, and who exhibiting their huge coronation pants at that moment instead, a la Carry On Up the Kyber?
I think this was a genius move by His Majesty. He's in tune with the modern public and knows how much people love to signal their virtue, and now they can do so either by swearing their allegiance ostentatiously, or ostentatiously refusing to swear allegiance.
Based on intelligence info, Russia has suffered more than 100,000 casualties in Bakhmut in last few months--80,000 wounded and 20,000 killed since December, NSC spokesman John Kirby says. Prigozhin's claim Wagner Group's had only 94 killed in action "is just a ludicrous claim." https://twitter.com/JenniferJJacobs/status/1653093775944699905
I’m a bit dubious as this would be around half of ALL Russian KIA in the war, per US assessments as of late Feb/early March. (see Pentagon leaks below)
The slides give detailed DIA casualty assessments: Russia 35,500-43,000 KIA & 154,000-180,000 WIA (implies ~1:4 ratio) Ukraine: 15,500-17,500 KIA & 109,000-113,500 WIA (implies ~1:6 ratio) BUT they specify LOW CONFIDENCE in attrition rates for a variety of reasons incl. info ops. https://twitter.com/shashj/status/1653100181561262080?cxt=HHwWgIC-wen2_vAtAAAA
If it was even half the estimate at 'only' 10,000, it sounds like one of the stupidest possible tactics to throw even simply conscripts at that line, without even pinning the Ukrainians in place. Could it possibly be true?
Yes I saw how you spun a 1% improvement for Sunak and a 5% increase for Starmer as essentially the same.
Officer he's already dead!
What on earth do you mean by that comment ?
It comes from a Meme, "Stop, he's already dead" that I think Dialup slightly misquoted.
The quote comes from The Simpsons. Specifically, an episode entitled “Homie the Clown.” The episode has Homer Simpson who, because of his uncanny likeness to Krusty the Clown, becomes a stand in for the clown. Homer gets sent to events that Krusty thinks are too demeaning to him. The quote comes from the middle of the episode where Homer is sent in Krusty stead at one of the Krusty Burger openings. There is supposed to be a skit where the Krusty Burglar (a pastiche of the McDonalds Hamburglar) is stealing burgers. However, Homer thinks that the Krusty Burlar is real and proceeds to pummel the diminutive costumed individual in front of of a crowd of children, one of which delivers the quote "Stop, he's already dead".
That has become a meme generally posted on discussion boards when someone appears to have lost an argument already, signifying that the victorious poster should cease inflicting blows on the defeated.
So who's going to be swearing their allegiance while saluting, and who exhibiting their huge coronation pants at that moment instead, a la Carry On Up the Kyber?

The view in Tallinn is that Bakhmut has been a total catastrophe for the Russians. Now it seems like there is the beginning of a shaping operation ahead of the counter offensive. There is a growing sense of panic in Russia. I saw the largest demonstration of Russians (carrying the Liberty Flag of White-Blue-White) I have ever seen outside the Russian Embassy over the Weekend. It really feels like something big is brewing.

It looks as though the Conservatives will be close to their 2019 levels - the England split in tonight's R&W was Labour 44%, Conservative 29% Liberal Democrat 13% so a 14% swing from December 2019 which is pretty much where we were last week. The Scottish sub sample in tonight's poll may be of more interest to some.
The LDs will also be close to 2019 which leaves Labour who are running much higher and how any form of tactical voting or local anti-Conservative agreement, pact or understanding will impact.
In terms of actual votes cast last time, the Conservatives won 31.5%, Labour 26.5%, Liberal Democrats 16.8%. Green 9.2%, UKIP 4.5% and 11.5% went to other parties such as Residents Groups and Independents.
These aren't quite the same seats as were contested last time but it's still a useful starting point.

Collin Allred's claims to fame in the Lone Star State begin with being a native son of Big D, a standout high school athlete and Baylor University scholarship football player good enough for the professional NFL. Who after his playing days earned a law degree (UC Berkeley) and now represents much of North Dallas in Congress - quite fitting to those of us who remember "North Dallas 40".
BTW (and FYI) Rep. Allred is African American. Which may perhaps (emphasis on conditional) help turn out Black voters who might otherwise be skeptical that their support could swing Texas behind Joe Biden versus any GOPer.
However, in US Senate race, Betto O'Rourke demonstrated that Ted Cruz is vulnerable, just because he's Ted Cruz. And Collin Allred may prove a better foil for TC than BO'R.

The projected national equivalent vote share in the May 2019 locals was 28:28:19 C:L:LD (actual vote shares as above).
The PNE shares were much better for the Lib Dems than the national opinion polls immediately before the elections, worse for Labour, not particularly worse for the Tories, but way worse for UKIP (the Brexit party had yet to be formed). The polling average at end of April was roughly Lab 30, Con 28, LD 11 and UKIP 10. Actual kipper result was 4.5%. So I think the actual Tory outcome was held up by brexiteers holding their noses.
I don’t think the LDs will see the same bounce this time because 2019 was very much an election for sending a message on Brexit. Hence also the disappointing Labour result.

Murdoch is just, in his own words on The Simpsons, a billionare tyrant. I imagine he is the hero of his own story, like most of us, but he's not some pseudo-intellectual spouting nonsense about important matters and thinking he's delivering deep truths even when he cannot get basic facts correct (like who won the 2017 election).
Murdoch at least lacks pretention about what he is, he's in it for business, and that easily bumps him up in comparison.

I’m a bit dubious as this would be around half of ALL Russian KIA in the war, per US assessments as of late Feb/early March. (see Pentagon leaks below)
The slides give detailed DIA casualty assessments:
Russia 35,500-43,000 KIA & 154,000-180,000 WIA (implies ~1:4 ratio)
Ukraine: 15,500-17,500 KIA & 109,000-113,500 WIA (implies ~1:6 ratio)
BUT they specify LOW CONFIDENCE in attrition rates for a variety of reasons incl. info ops.

Democratic Rep. Colin Allred is planning to announce a run against Sen. Ted Cruz as soon as this week, according to two people familiar with his plans.
A former NFL player-turned-civil rights attorney, Allred has been quietly prepping for a run against Cruz for months. During his two successful reelection bids since ousting an entrenched incumbent in 2018, Allred has proven a prolific fundraiser. He’s well-liked within the Democratic Caucus and has also picked up positions in leadership, now serving as a member of House Minority Whip Katherine Clark’s (D-Mass.) team and as previously part of then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) expansive leadership team…
