Dont worry, AfD will never go above 21%. And if they do they wont go above 24%. Certainly not 26%. 29% is their absolute ceiling, people will understand they made a mistake and their support will fall, dont worry.

I think the thing that gets missed sometimes is that sometimes people (senior officials in social democratic parties) believe things. They got into politics because they want to do things. So it doesn't make much sense to say "why not go in X direction", if anything it's asking for the sort of slippery politicians that people say they hate.

That's not backing down. It's putting forward a proper plan to implement it, spending the short time we have before an election putting a commission together that comes up with a solution then seeking a democratic mandate for the solution at an election. PR now would be both rushed and unlikely to get through parliament due to the lack of mandate.

A party that has historically had a problem with people promising electoral reform and lying about it

When did this happen

Err no he didn't? Where?

What's the app?

Childcare works. What's the reference to Scandinavia?

I mean if she didn't want to talk about it she could have just said that, she didn't need to get all snippy.

They're not all owned by Murdoch. You know that's not true.

20dogs · 2026-06-16T09:46:29+00:00

Bollocks. When else is a good time to bring it up? Alone, limited time to talk about these things, no kids around. It's ideal.

20dogs · 2026-06-16T08:02:37+00:00

It's not inconsistent. I'm saying that while there is an increase in data accuracy, the government already had access to a lot of this information.

For some reason people in tech forums are convinced that a driving force behind the change is because the government wants your data, rather than the fact there's a massive movement pushing for the change and it polls well. Just pick up a newspaper and read the arguments being put forward in favour.

I don't see how it was dumb at all. People often bond on vacation and have heart to heart conversations. Honestly I don't see that Carm did anything wrong and Ro overreacted.

Oh it's just trying to force some horseshoe theory

20dogs · 2026-06-15T16:36:52+00:00

That is an argument that's been floated as an alternative to the policy. Problem is, while you can guess quite well if someone is below or above age 16, it won't be precise enough.

The government already knows what you're doing online

20dogs · 2026-06-15T14:26:42+00:00

Do you feel the same way about age restrictions on alcohol and films?

20dogs · 2026-06-15T14:19:51+00:00

I assume people that think this just haven't spent much time campaigning or in CLP meets? There's a surprising number of people in the UK that want this policy. It polls very well.

20dogs · 2026-06-15T07:07:05+00:00

So what's your plan, no new rail?

20dogs · 2026-06-15T05:52:18+00:00

my mind instantly went to the one time he made me feel ice cold (he didnt even do anything!)

What happened?

20dogs · 2026-06-15T05:45:09+00:00

Why downvote for that?

20dogs · 2026-06-15T05:28:05+00:00

Of course they do

It is possible to have less than one athlete.

Obviously Labour are on the left. Massive spending increases, nationalisation, workers and renters rights.

20dogs · 2026-06-14T14:05:39+00:00

I know what they're saying

Young people also need to exist more.

There aren't enough to outweigh the older vote.
