It's sickening. I've just seen an update on BBC News that one of the criminals was serving a 22 year sentence for grievously assaulting a police officer - and just like that, he's free.
I'm a firm believer in Karma; and this ugly as sin tyrant and his cronies will get theirs.

People over here cheering that online will be the same people that claim Starmer sent people to jail for a "few hurty words" - the world is fucked now.
My God! Listen to yourself. What sense does it make to charge officers who were assaulted?
Lets all accept that pardoning protesters who evidence show were assaulting cops is wrong. If he did that, terrible of Trump.
P.S: Foggy, example of when i disagree with Trump. Do not pardon anyone who assaultd law enforcement. Period!
That however doesn't explain why supposedly assaulted police officers are being preemptively pardoned. 2 separate issues.
1. Bad to pardoned known assaulters of officers.
2. These should not be conflated eith protest participants who didn't assault anyone (i.e. a majority of the convicted,)
3. None of the above has any relevance to why officers are getting preemptive pardoned
It does not add up!

If it's not too much trouble, could you find the sample size, confidence intervals, methodology, specific queries etc. for this poll? As someone who studies polls regularly for work I'd like to see it, but I cannot find any of the information anywhere and normally I can.

I assume that the pardoned police officers is simply those who testified to the J6 hearing. All witnesses were treated the same; some were police.

Lots on YouTube too where it's being discussed. Suprised with all your knowledge of polls these slipped by you
Kamala Harris Paid the Price for Not Breaking With Biden on Gaza, New Poll Shows
Twenty-nine percent of non-voters who supported Biden in 2020 said U.S. support for the genocide was the top reason they sat the 2024 election, according to a survey by YouGov.

'Damning' New Poll Shows Price Kamala Harris Paid for Backing Israeli Genocide in Gaza | Common Dreams
Vice President Kamala Harris' refusal to break with the Biden administration's support for Israel's assault on Gaza cost her millions of potential Democratic voters. Will the Democratic Party learn from this and listen to its voters who want leaders to oppose sending more weapons to Israel...

Looks like it’s a single poll of 604 people conducted by IMEU (a Palestine supporting organisation) that is reported in multiple non-mainstream outlets.

OK, but that's not what I asked. Those are just videos repeating the information. I want to know how the data was collected. That's what seems strange -- I can't find the poll methodology anywhere.Lots on YouTube too where it's being discussed. Suprised with all your knowledge of polls these slipped by you

Excellent, do you have a link to the data page?
I recogniz(s)e the source is biased but it doesn't mean their data was bad; that's what I'm trying to figure out -- was this conducted in a way to elicit the response I'd assume they wanted or not?
For example, if the question was open-ended vs. a selection of fixed choices that included Israel/Gaza, it'd be highly likely the responses would be much different.
Another example: in day-of-election exit polls, very few if any national news sources reported the Gaza issue as significant save for certain precincts in certain counties. It wasn't at all widespread.
I've said I didn't think it was especially important, especially when most rational folks would conclude that Trump would be a greater supporter of Israeli actions. But if I'm wrong, that's important.

I use Duck Go Go as my primary search engine. I searched "Biden Gaza Loss Polls" and a whole raft of results popped up involving multiple polls, from multiple sources, going back to 2023 all sounding a warning.Lots on YouTube too where it's being discussed.

Any way, here from our friends at The Forward which claims Gaza did not affect the result.
Gaza didn't cost Harris the election. But her approach pointed to a broader problem
Pro-Palestinian organizers say the problem was her focus on courting moderates, including Republicans, rather than motivating the party’s left flank.

Biden added that “I ran into trouble and criticism when I said a few years ago that you don’t have to be Jewish to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist.”
I've seen the video of Biden telling a Jewish interviewer that he is a Zionist. It looks like Biden is somewhere in the Capitol, it takes place in a corridor, and the Jewish guy looks well-pleased with Biden's statement.
“It is a very personal visit because your relationship with Israel has always been very personal,” said Lapid. “You once defined yourself as a Zionist. You said that you don’t have to be a Jew in order to be a Zionist, and you were right. And in your case, a great Zionist, and one of the best friends Israel has ever known.”

Still some big swings in those polls from 2020 - 2024. Not as much as the 29% though on the one I posted. I still think they lost a lot of votes through it as all the pre polling showed the Majority of Democrats wanted Biden to reign Netanyahu in, Instead he went all in.I use Duck Go Go as my primary search engine.

The US is a poor excuse for a democracy. Essentially both parties run by the elite for the elite. By the way, that's not to say other democracies are much better.
Many people who voted for Trump, if they weren't billionaires who thought the grift would get even better, were people left behind by this elitocracy, and were rightly pissed off but wrongly assumed there was a party that in any way gave a shit about them.
In fact Trump cares less than most as he's a selfish narcissist who will in my view try to extend his term to a third.

Never seen you in the Irish politics thread.
I’ve been waiting patiently for years.
