GB News: Trump EXPOSED the 'visceral snobbery' of the centrist dad - and there's no coming back, says Brendan O'Neill
Brendan O'Neill critiques British centrists, particularly Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell, for their shock at Donald Trump's election victory, suggesting it highlights their disconnect from ordinary working people. He argues that their elitist bubble has burst, revealing their misunderstanding of populism.
O'Neill believes this reaction reflects a broader trend of centrists being out of touch with the electorate, as evidenced by their astonishment at both the US election results and Brexit. Their failure to predict these outcomes underscores their isolation from the sentiments of the working class.
Front Page Magazine: Can Dems Stop Being the "Freak Show Party"?
Centrist Democrats and some traditional leftists argue for a shift away from identity politics toward economic issues. Following disappointing election results, there's a growing sentiment within the party that identity politics have alienated middle America, prompting calls for a return to core working-class representation.
However, many DNC members remain hesitant to openly criticize the current direction, fearing backlash from the more radical elements of the party. This internal struggle raises questions about whether the Democrats can truly move away from their current image and regain the support of everyday Americans.

GB News: Drivers urged to clear windscreen frost or risk breaking Highway Code rules - 'Makes a big difference'
As temperatures in the UK drop, drivers are advised to use a potato to prevent frost on their windscreens. Rubbing a cut potato on the glass creates a starch barrier that reduces moisture build-up, helping to maintain visibility and comply with Highway Code rules.
This method is cost-effective and environmentally friendly, offering a natural alternative to chemical de-icing products. Experts recommend applying the potato treatment the night before frost is expected for optimal results.

Front Page Magazine: Transgender Glasnost Comes to the Media
The Washington Post editorial board has raised concerns about the fairness of allowing trans women to compete against cisgender women in sports, citing biological advantages conferred by male puberty. It emphasizes the need for more research and an open debate on the balance between inclusion and safety.
This shift in tone appears to be influenced by a recent Gallup poll showing that nearly 70% of Americans believe sports participation should align with birth sex rather than gender identity. The editorial suggests that political pressure to ignore this majority may hinder Democratic success in elections.
