"Hi young people, so we talked about it and decided that instead of a pay rise maybe you would like to get pointlessly blown up by a drone?" 🙄

Labour now briefing young people won't get the same minimum wage uplift. Even Starmer didn't break this pledge. Workers rights mean same rights, pay & conditions, same rate for the same job. What does this Labour government have against young people? inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Crazy how in about 70% of all countries in the world, some foul little rich kid who's never worked a day in his life and spends every minute being the most obnoxious person you have ever met has somehow convinced 30-50% of the country that he's on their side.

I feel like the only person on planet earth who loves the switch from daylight savings time to GMT. Dark, cosy evenings and bright, crisp mornings. A long stretch of early rises and early sleeps. Best part of the year imho.

I won't be making a bug out bag. Would much rather die in my own house than in a refugee camp in Huddersfield.

Thank god the rock-ribbed manly titans of unrelenting belligerence keep winning elections, can you imagine if the sappy hippies had won.

🚨 NEW POLLING🚨 AI is now so good at mimicking empathy that many people prefer it to their friends. 1 in 5 UK adults have used an AI chatbot for personal or relationship advice – and 54% of them found it more helpful than talking to friends or family.

The IPCC is pretty clear that if we want a safe climate there can be no new oil and gas. But every country thinks it has some special reason for why it should be the exception

The deal used to be "come and work a shit job for a few years, then you can stay and find something better." It was a crap deal but some went for it. Hard to imagine who is going to move across the world for this one when they could get the same in the UAE and would at least have slavery+sunshine

The Home Office openly saying Mahmood forcing migrant workers to have less rights for 15 years is designed to create a big class of workers totally dependent on (& exploitable by) bosses , not to reduce migration , in The Times www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

And obviously it's inhumane, cruel, exploitative as well as a bad deal, but it's the UK. Inhumane, cruel and exploitative is kind of our thing.

At least you will be able to observe the dust storms and acid rain blowing across the dead landscape from a quiet train carriage.

Today's decision by Labour to approve new drilling in the North Sea is climate vandalism. It's a betrayal of all of our futures, and Labour has abandoned all credibility in the fight against climate change. This is a victory for Shell over the people. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

Someone in my local has been calling me Steve for the last six months. It's not my name and I genuinely don't know how to address this.

We've all sacrificed more than enough for this stupid country already. Sacrificed our time and youth for the economy, sacrificed our rights to mollify the worst bigots. No. No more. Get lost.

Could we be more specific about the imminent Day Of Reckoning when everyone will be forced to sacrifice and do things they don’t want to do, for the army. Much, much more specific than this, please.

So, if you're left wing, your options are to accept that Zionism is racism and fight the likes of ball who both support the genocide and want to crush the left. Or do endless mealy mouthed triangulations and capitulations desperately trying to appease the likes of Ball who'll never be appeased.

The things liberals believe about politics never cease to amaze me. Of course politics is about posturing! We have more politics than anyone can handle and nothing ever changes for the better! These people live in a fantasy world.

Good. Take the rest of your poisonous countrymen with you please.
