  1. Society and politics

    Have our parliaments and politicians adopted the wickedness and falsity of religions, into their own mode of operations.

  3. CW: UK Pol - Not In Education/Training, Private ownership of wealth

    The talking heads today are SHOCKED, SHOCKED to hear how terrible it is failing to find work when you're a young person who isn't in education or training.

    Laura K was surprised to hear that they aren't in fact all feckless layouts but nearly 90% of them would prefer to do some work for a wage really if only they could find someone willing to do the swap.

    A new number is produced:

    The state spends only one pound on trying to get people jobs for every twenty five pounds they spend on welfare for potential workers.

    Laura K is shocked again.

    I see where this is going.

    Will the answer be to take money currently spent on the welfare of workers and instead give it to big business to subsidize their wage bill?

    Will it?

    bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cewppq

    'Green opposition leader Andrew Stringer said the removal of the flag without discussion was "deeply concerning".'

    "If the leadership at Suffolk County Council can fly the flag of a saint born in Anatolia, why can we not also continue to fly the flag showing our solidarity with Ukraine?"

  9. UK vetting said Mandelson ought not to gain security clearance to become US ambassador, but the UK govt gave it to him anyway.

    Vetting had shown Mandelson's links to Israeli military intelligence (it had "encouraged the US to assassinate Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani").

    Also, "Mandelson had taken a Β£1m loan from an unnamed businessman to acquire shares in an Israeli company called Moon Active."

  13. lol, I'm a middle aged Millennial and I barely have any of these things. The only property I'll own will come after my parents die.
    A Pension? I think I've probably paid about two years into a company pension, ever....

    The Economy hasn't changed since the turn of this century, don't start pretending you're concerned about it now lads, people didn't buy it in the 00s and they aren't buying it now

    Ivory tower fuckwits 😑

  14. Immigration is down, yet Youth Unemployment continues to rise, not that the racists actually cared about the employment or the Economy, it was just an excuse to hate on people who are superficially different from them.

    Anyway, tell us how this wonderful AI bollocks Tony Blair has been pushing on us is going to solve this problem?

  19. Before the online safety consultation even ended, the UK government indicated that new restrictions are on the way.

    Pushing for a social media ban ignores its inherent fault – it doesn't work.

  24. Australia

    Anyway, when things get so bad we cant find a reason, we still have Putin to blame. Takes the heat of us while we rationalise the next batch of lies to support.

  26. CW: UKpol / Labour: thinking about Tony Blair

    Tony Blair once again makes a policy intervention out of his corrupted semi-retirement. And once again his very intervention proves how utterly irrelevant he has become.

    Blair's scolding of the current crop makes those guys _almost_ look good. (Almost.)

  27. the labour party is trying to finish what the tories started. they're doubling down to restrict our freedom to protest, bringing in ever more draconian measures to curtail our democratic rights.
    protest is not a crime! sign the petition & make our voices undeniable.

  28. This government is the Patriarchy.
    Why on Earth wouldn't they fund this? Another baffling an cruel move by a failing Labour Government who think banning Trans People from public life is "protecting Women and Girls"

  29. So what you're saying is that Brexit and Scottish Independence are not done deals no matter what dirty tricks you pull or how much you talk over people in an imperial manner?

  30. At least 286 climate and anti-genocide protesters have been sent to jail in the UK in recent years.

    Climate protesters have been criminalised and incarcerated for demanding the very same policies that the scientific community has declared to be necessary. Ordinary people who have heard the scientific warnings - who have been demonised by extreme wealth & their corrupted political parties.

  31. The #Starmer govt's plan to exclude #trans people from public spaces in the #UK is a Code Of Practice drafted by #EHRC, the UK's transphobic #EqualtiesCommission.

    The CoP is implemented as a #StatutoryInstrument (SI) "made negative". So it becomes law without debate or vote, unless stopped by a near-impossible procedure. The Lords last blocked a made-negative SI in 2000; the Commons in 1979.

    The #HansardSociety explains the procedure: hansardsociety.org.uk/blog/liv
