Burnham has been planning for an election since entering office, that's why he's discussing possibly rejoining the EU. These are election issues.
At least that has been opinion. An election could be framed as both an election and referendum on EU membership.

Our guys are taking down Shaheds for like 2 hours non-stop.
Just a barrage of shit flying at us.
Endless sounds of shooting and these death machines flying.
Here are the notifications for last hour.
Just to illustrate what a night is like in the East of Ukraine.

In an interview on The Diary of a CEO with @StevenBartlett, @ZelenskyyUa shared that despite his demanding schedule and presidential responsibilities, he always makes time to speak with his mother every day.
She sometimes calls him 12 times in a row, worries about him, asks about the children, and wants to know when the war will finally end.
“Mom, we’re doing everything we can,” the president replies.
This is real journalism.
Spending a year on the Kostiantynivka axis of the frontline Journalist @DylanBurns1776's latest film shows how the war has fundamentally changed and how the infantry has been forced to adapt and go through extreme conditions as the rise of drones has come to dominate the sky.
Editor-in-chief/lead reporter @DevinSanLuis having helped film sections of the film, and now sits down to hear from Dylan about his latest work.
The difference between me and you isn't that I blame Hamas and you blame Israel, it's that I accept that both sides have played a major role and you excuse Hama's behaviour.
Lol that's nonsense, there's still more than 10k Hamas fighters, they also still keep many political prisoners in captivity.
If Hasan was actually pro-Palestinian he'd bother to discuss the persecution of Palestinians by Hamas themselves, the murders, the imprisonment of political opposition.
He's a political charlatan.
This is a critical distinction and given how Starlink terminals have been used it is clear that Ukraine has been using Starshield for their drone use, not Starlink.
Musk would have known this, he's thus clearly lying.
Gorbachev himself explains that this was a misunderstanding.
I've also spent a lot of time in former soviet countries discussing politics, and gaining an understanding of the views of the people that live there.

@TrackUkraine should be getting more exposure before the midterms. Democracy only functions when the electorate are well informed.
Likewise when our systems succeed it can't be anything to do with capitalism, the importance of market dynamics and innovation.

I'm a domestic abuse survivor. This is so inspiring to me. Amy Acton is a person who has chosen to carry her pain into action. I can tell she doesn't just want to help people, she wants to fight for them. I hope she becomes the next governor of Ohio.

"I miss them constantly. And it feels like that even when they're right next to me."
Asked what his wife would say about how he has changed, President Zelenskyy says: "She'd definitely say I've changed a lot." He adds: "In a war you fight and you're lonely."
He describes "this habit of doing work and focusing exclusively on work," and says: "I chose my own path. And of course, I didn't choose the war, but I chose this path."
