“Under the proposals it would be a criminal offence for a member of the Senedd, or a candidate for election to the Senedd, to wilfully, or with intent to mislead, make or publish a statement that is known to be false or deceptive.”
I think candidate for election would cover that.
So Starmer got glittered. Nigel got his traditional milkshaking. What’s Rishi gonna get?
Options one has to discover for oneself. Keep asking that question, one day the answer may become clear.
What are you, ConfuciusGPT?
I thought we were having a discussion about the current UK electoral politics.
I’d very much like to hear what you think the other valid options the UK general public has to make an impact at this election.
Please enlighten me.
What are the other options?
Well that’s it. Once they get into power keep applying the pressure.
That’s what the StopTheTories.vote group are planning to do with their agenda to get a form of proportional representation to replace FPTP once the Tories are out.
The only other option is armed revolution and good luck rolling the dice on that in this country given how it’s gone previously (gestures to all of UK rebellion history) I’ll be out of the country for that one.
So the writer means Starmer pulled it from a fringe left unelectable mess of in-fighting (in a first-past-the-post system and Murdoch dominated press) to a left-of-centre party that’s trying to win over as many voters as possible to get a overwhelming majority in parliament.
I don’t like how centrist the current form of the labour party is, but at least there’s a chance of them listening to us once in power.
The Royal Observatory Greenwich:
“Well, as the first to co-ordinate time we-”
The International Telecommunication Union and International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service in Unison:
“Excuse me, I think you’ll find we manage the time.”
NIST: “I don’t see your footprints up there! We’re going off my Omega Speedmaster!”
Sometime this year when the prime minister reckons he has the best chance of minimising electoral losses.
Also don’t hold your breath for a radically different attitude from a Labour government because the media loves to point to the antisemitic accusations in the internal party politics.
Oh you lucky sod. The only old plane I got to look inside was the Lancaster based at RAF Scampton they use for memorial flights, still a another good aircraft but it’s no Vulcan.
Also, good to meet a fellow former ATC Cadet in the wilds of the internet.
I’m aware the Vulcans have been scrapped, I was just memeing.
I saw the Vulcan’s last flight as Cosford Airshow about 10 years ago. The sheer size of that aircraft flying overhead at under 100ft, the rumble and roar of the engines will stay with me for a lifetime. It was an awesome aircraft.
Argentina: we will retake Las Malvinas!
Royal Navy: Oh really? Try it. We’d really like a chance to demonstrate the combat effectiveness of our QE2 Class Carriers. And Bob here hasn’t shot his destroyer’s deck guns since '82 and he’s bored!
RAF: (Rapidly dusting off the Vulcans and Nimrods)
Royal Marines: (Lights up a Benson & Hedges cigarette)… Right… (Slaps knees and stands up)… Grab yer Bergens and Bayonets lads!
The tomorrow’s headlines in Murdoch’s media:
10 bullshit reasons why we should scrap human rights.
Says the Stalinist who’d be the first lined up at the wall and shot by the very ideology they support.
And for the record, fuck the Nazis, fuck the Tories, and fuck every single fascist rightwing or leftwing.
Democracy isn’t perfect, but it gives people a voice and if they work hard to maintain proper democratic institutions, it offers the better outcomes for the majority.
Well I don’t think the federation government would be idiotic enough to try and make every farmer into an industrialist by forcing them to meltdown their own tools in the hopes of creating mechanised farming equipment only to end up with piles of unusable pig-iron slag, and thus contributing to another famine.
Even though I can’t stand musicals and musical episodes, I’ll concede that it was a good episode that moved the season’s plot forward well. Even though I was squirming in my seat throught it.
Can we just skip over the slow bubbling WW3, get the nuking over with, and then invent the warp drive so we can all have our luxury space communism in the stars?
There can’t be war crimes if there’s no-one to post about them [Taps head].
You might find this video helpful to understand that you’re not alone in this.
Also I feel the same way. I’d rather not experience the pain and suffering, but I’m here anyway and therefore I’ll occupy my time doing things I think have meaning.
For me that’s using my ability to engineer things that people find helpful and make life better.
Oh wow, I remember watching this back in 2008 when they switched the LHC on for the first time.
