I unironically love this. Well done maximalism is a thing of beauty.

Bridgerton: Atia from Rome is here and she is exactly the same
TOBS: Clementi, Handel, Beethoven
Bridgerton: Coldplay, Usher... but on strings
Bridgerton: Pall Mall - functionally just croquet, which everybody knows from Alice in Wonderland
TOBS: 'Graces', a game nobody remembers and for good reason as it looks absolutely pointless
Bridgerton: Lady Whistledown's salacious gossip rag, Maria Edgeworth’s Ennui

Some polling data from a Lord Ashcroft poll that shows voting intention for the next UK General Election to be Greens 21.4%, Reform 20.9%, Conservatives 20.5%, Labour 17%, and Liberal Democrats 9.2%.
A picture of Bernie Sanders, with the text "I am once again asking Labour to ditch FPTP before the next General Election."
