"La pollution qui n'est plus émise dans les agglomérations grâce aux voitures électriques est déplacée dans les zones minières où l'on extrait les ressources. La transition énergétique et numérique est une transition pour les classes les plus aisées : dépolluer les centres-villes, plus huppés, pour mieux lester de ses impacts réels les zones plus miséreuses et éloignées des regards." Pitron

A chance to reveal,
The future they both anticipate.

‘We’re in the last, hard yards’: quiet hopes for UK-EU reset at crucial summit
Monday’s meet-up could provide the piece of the jigsaw to unlock UK growth and draw a line under the Brexit yearsJessica Elgot (The Guardian)
The reliably insightful Kenan Malik makes the (pretty plausible) argument that the decline of class politics has had a negative impact on perceptions of migrants as they no longer arrive with an immediate entry into a localised/national identify (the working class).... a shift to identity politics & the demise of class as a social signifier have contributed to a world in which Keir Stramer can classify them as 'strangers'.... like all of us

We’re becoming strangers – but not just because of immigration
The demise of class politics has led to social fragmentation. Starmer is misplacing the blameKenan Malik (The Observer)

A strange, condescending post to send, given the politician(s) I have compared Keir Starmer to when it came to his speech last week was not Enoch Powell but Harold Wilson and others in the 1966-70 Cabinet.

Evento di MMA organizzato da UFC il 17 maggio 2025 presso la UFC Apex di Enterprise, Nevada, Stati Uniti.

The video humorously depicts a person with ADHD engaging in various activities that deviate from the task at hand, as indicated by the text overlay "ADHD people doing anything other than the thing they should be doing." It begins with the person ironing a piece of fabric with a blue iron, then transitions to them using the irons as makeshift skates in a skate park. The individual is seen skating on the irons, performing tricks, and even using them to grind along a ledge. The person is dressed in a black suit and rollerblades, and the setting includes ramps and a colorful mural in the background. The video continues with the person performing more skate park tricks, such as grinding along a ledge and balancing on the irons. The individual is also seen sitting on the ground, holding the irons, and then standing up to continue skating. The video maintains a playful and exaggerated portrayal of ADHD behavior, emphasizing the person's energetic and unconventional actions.

in reply to SufferForMe 🆘 • • •Indeed, many of the derided immigrants in our country work to maintain a sense of community far more than 'English' people.
We are the ones who have become strangers in our own land, because WE accepted it (or didn't fight it), not immigrants.

I think your last point is really what Malik is getting at.... but on your uneasiness about 'class'; I understand that, but as a retired lefty social scientist (semi-marxist political economist) I still have, as you still see the concept's analytical utility.... but of course, that (as you rightly point out) may not work for everyone's analysis of the malaise of British society

in reply to Emeritus Prof Christopher May • • •i have no disagreements with the value of a structural analysis of society, but the terminology is self-reinforcing in terms of the value of people from different groups in society. 'Upper' automatically implies superiority, and leads to entitlement. 'Lower' is automatically demeaning and 'Lower' and 'Working' are often used as pejoratives.
The choice of language in itself contributes to the semantics of the analysis.
Emeritus Prof Christopher May

Hmmm.... my typology was always working, middle & ruling.... my father (old Labour) was always of the view that the 'real' middle class was quite small, while the working class (i.e. those who had to work to live) was much larger & divided against itself by the ruling class.... and t a large extent I was always with something like that (analytically)
