I was never a Corbyn/McDonnel fan - although as a bystander, living in Scotland, but this is an interesting piece.

Nu Nu Labour could legitiimately be blamed for the catastrophe that was the Tory administration and Brexit given their determined efforts to bring Labour down 'I am working every day to bring down Jeremy Corbyn” [Peter Mandelson]

Now they have their sticky paws on power and don't know what to do with it.

#Debunking Putin’s root causes claims

#Putin is after not just a rollback of of #NATO membership or Ukraine’s neutrality in Ukraine & beyond . It’s about turning #Ukraine into subservient vassal state

False narratives serve useful purpose for #Russia

When Putin says root causes of his war, he is using a framework he claims justifies Russia’s #aggression by #falsely placing #blame on Ukraine

He uses narratives to blame #Ukraine as instigator of #Kremlin’s #war

The Kyiv Independent · Why did Russia invade Ukraine? Debunking Putin’s ‘root causes' claimsAs Russia continues to bombard cities and towns across Ukraine, Russian officials have hardened their position against a ceasefire, continuing to repeat the obscure demand that the war’s "root causes" be addressed before agreeing to any truce. For months, the phrase "root causes" has become a go-to talking point

The answer was, of course, both.

Although with minimal alterations, the female space marine is likely to be finished first.

As the "new" combi-weapons come with 1 bolter and 4 top options, I have cast extra bolter parts to make use of them all (eventually).

The Sanakan Necron is in the process of re-posing. I'm aiming for the ref' pose on the left, with the S-shape of the right.
Selected head from a Dark Eldar Wych, with the top knot removed.

Various angles of an unpainted space marine miniature with an added female head from Crooked Dice / Bad Squiddo games.
Front and back views of the re-posed legs of a Necron and 2 reference photos from the Manga "Blame!". First has the character with a foot up on something, as will the miniature. The second shows the character drawn in a S-shape, legs curving backwards at the knee, while the body arches with the belly forwards.

Hi everyone! I'm happy to be here to connect with everyone during the fall of reddit and Academic Twitter alike. I research #blame and #emotions in politics, and recently published a paper on what third parties do to contest blame (link.springer.com/article/10.1). I also host a science communication #podcast called Conflict Tipping on social #conflict and what to do about it (open.spotify.com/show/0FdfDvqx). I'm looking forward to connecting with other scholars! (And yes, I like hashtags.)

SpringerLinkBreaking blame: uncovering third-party strategies for contesting political blame in the Brexit referendum campaign - British PoliticsBlame is inextricable from politics, as exemplified by the Brexit referendum campaign. While existing literature locates the strategies officeholders use to avoid or shift blame, there is a lack of research into what third parties do to contest political blame when they encounter it. To this end, this paper applies qualitative content analysis, complemented by quantitative data, to pre-referendum materials from Leave.EU and the Stronger In campaigns (N = 355), Brexit-related articles in The Metro (N = 60), and a survey-experiment conducted amongst the UK voting public (N = 1368). Three types of contestation strategy are identified: direct (counter-blaming, rebuttal, justification, and naming and shaming blame); displacement (credit and threats); and changing subjects and objects. This paper opens a research agenda into what people other than politicians themselves can do to contest blame, renders visible third-party audiences such as the public in political blame games, and incidentally highlights the failure of Remain to engage with blame during the referendum campaign.
