*Why is Labour ignoring its own members on electoral reform?*

I can't prove it, but I suspect that plutocratists are now in control of Labour, and changes outside of a limited range are beyond the range of thinking.

*Geico workers accuse company of aggressive tactics to deter union push.*

Hurricanes today are no longer natural disasters. These disasters are augmented by human-made global heating, which causes stronger winds, stronger rain for a longer period of time, and bigger storm surges starting from a higher mean sea level.

Big hit songs are hit with copyright infringement claims over vague similarities to other songs.

I think this is a sign that the criteria for infringement are too loose. But it is also a consequence of the increased practice of songwriters' or their heirs' selling their whole catalogs to companies.

Copyright lasts far too long. A 1973 work should not be copyrighted today.

Zelenskiy said that Ukraine has applied for membership in NATO.

That threatens to embarrass Ukraine's supporters, since they can't possibly accept. They have good reasons not to get involved in actual fighting with the Putin forces -- to avoid a step down a path that could lead to nuclear war.

It might be useful for NATO to announce that it will treat Ukraine as a NATO member, for the duration of this war, if Putin uses nuclear weapons. That might convince him not to take the risk.
