  1. CW: UKPol - Farage

    I see Farage has made an announcement that tomorrow he will make an announcement that he will come back as leader of Reform and run yet-again for parliament.

    Not sure in what sense that isn't in fact the announcement itself, but I guess we'll find out tomorrow when the actual announcement happens.

    Millions of people he reckons basically forced him into it. He can't let the millions of people down. All of them clamoring, "come on Nige, do it for us" he reckons.

    His country needs him I guess. America can wait.

    It could have been an interesting election, between Reform and Workers UK and Green and Libs and Labour and Conservatives.

    But sadly that isn't the kind of election system we have so the first three of those will be lucky to get a seat each and the next quite probably no more than a dozen.

    Hope Nigel loses, but then I also wish they all could lose somehow.

    With the election imminent the whole country is excited to finally have a new government committed to the same spending plans as the old government.

    But which policies are you most looking forward to from Labour? Which is the most exciting prospect?

  11. Hey TV producers, if there's only two "leaders" at your "debate" it's bullshit and I ain't watching it.

    Include the SNP, include the Greens, include the Libs, include Cymru, heck even include Workers Party and Reform if you want.

    If you're excluding parties that have MPs, your debate is bullshit and nobody should bother tuning in.

  16. CW: re: #ukpol #nationalService

    Literally no one under the age of 21 could deliberately vote for Rishi's national service for 18 to 21 year olds plan, surely?

    Lets see, do I really want every 3rd weekend ruined while I'm trying to do my degree or work a gig job to make ends meet?

    If they really want the plan to work they should have said 16 to 18 year olds coz they can't vote anyway.

    Or raise the voting age to 21!

    Their whole campaign is going to be alienating one scapegoat after another until everyone other than the sputtering gammon and the billionaires enraging them swear off voting Conservative forever.

    Dear candidates

    I have become concerned that many members of a modern generation are becoming radicalized.

    There are forces trying to divide our society in this increasingly uncertain world. Many of them have not had the opportunity to experience things outside their own blinded culturally impoverished tiny small minded horizons.

    They need an opportunity that many of them have never had the chance at before.

    Would you consider a policy to send this generation into national service?

    It could just be one weekend a month, they could both give the nation a valuable service in return for their continued citizenship, and have experiences that would broaden their horizons and offer life changing opportunities to learn real world skills, and contribute to their community and our country.

    Think of the renewed sense of national pride these people would feel knowing they belong to a country that can forcibly take time from their limited lives, and that they owe that country for it allowing them to live.

    Naysayers may neigh that enforced service is a time-share enslavement of a whole generation but I say that these people are in danger of being radicalized and only putting them into enforced servitude for their country can possibly stop them hating it so much they destroy it's institutions in their incoherent rage.

    So candidates, what do you say: Will you support a compulsory national service for all Baby Boomers, doing a few hours a week working at a gay-bar, or helping out at a gender dysphoria clinic, just something to broaden their narrow cynical view and prevent them being radicalized by extremists like the Conservative party spreading hate propaganda.

    I'm not saying anyone would go to jail for refusing of course, they could just be transported to a safe third country. Or one that we define as safe at least.

    Who will support an inquiry into the possibility of such a plan, at least just to get some headlines before the inquiry finds it's infeasible, unethical, appalling and legally indefensible.

    And yes, trans people are still citizens, at least for now.
