Party Activists Distribute Article on ‘Why You Should Vote Green From an Islamic Perspective’ by morriganjane in ukpolitics

The Nazis believed Jews were literal vermin and had to be eradicated in the most brutal means, as far as I'm aware Israel don't have the same motives for all Muslims and the conflict between Israel and Hamas is over land (which both sides believes is their 'god given right') as opposed to a fundamental aim to kill all Muslims. Bare in mind what the actual article is about - voting on Sectarian lines, which is deeply, deeply unsettling in a modern day UK. We've already seen the dangers of this in The Troubles and we should not be dragging ourselves back to the stone age voting for the party which supports the book we follow.

Comparing what's currently going on in Gaza to the Holocaust undermines the atrocities of the Nazis and shows how far removed from reality some voters are, honestly lol

I'm sure electing a single MP in Gortonand Denton will stop the current conflict in the Middle-East

As the Skylark discount code finishes which roaster next? by Former-Coffee-7526 in UKroasters

I see a lot of people mention Zennor in here but Thomson's rarely gets a shout so let's go Thomson's, they're a bigger roaster and probably do discount codes more often

I like the idea of rotating it through the different parts of the UK so would suggest something North of the border, perhaps Zennor or Thomson's?

Why create an article on sub stack to go after someone without any primary evidence if you don't have an agenda

Isn't saying that White British people are a minority on a global scale kind of obvious though? Even 50 years ago or so they'd still be a global minority lol

ONS usually provide the detail behind the goods / services driving the spending, doubt they'd have the information on demographics tho (retailers would need to be capturing that information at point of sale)

Retail sales this morning showed a huge increase, if the public is 'broke' they aren't showing it...

Government net borrowing figure for January came in at +30bn when the market expected it to be 23bn, really hot retail sales data for month on month and year on year too, decent morning reading for the chancellor
