tack

The Trump campaign has tried a similar tack to secure the suburban female voters they’ve been hemorrhaging since the Dobbs abortion decision.

Biden spent much of his speech following a tack set by Harris' campaign, where boosters and candidates alike compare their message of unity and positivity with Trump's fascist and bleak rhetoric.

But Lidia Thorpe - who is now an independent after leaving the Greens over the party’s support for the Yes vote in the referendum - is unlikely to change tack.

So when she talks about her steady tack right in recent years on issues such as retail crime and homelessness, she’s direct and unapologetic.

With other countries highlighting the growing importance of the space domain in future conflicts, it seems unlikely the latest UK defence assessment will tack a different course to the last one.
