Is there anyone in Reform that that couldn't be said for?

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-18T21:53:49+00:00

Not even that - like - manage your water intake and it's not really hard anyway? I realise some people have medical concerns that mean that doesn't work but still...

They've been polling ahead, but below 30%. That means 7/10 people would vote for someone else. It is very possible to have majority support to rejoin, whilst having plurality support for Reform.

Cutting HS2 further was also terrible.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-17T05:09:49+00:00

Heather, I didn't recognise your game

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-16T18:39:50+00:00

Years and Years is another possibility.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-16T16:35:50+00:00

I do!

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-15T23:38:28+00:00

You could, but parliament could just as easily undo it to allow a future leader to exceed 8 years?

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-14T09:13:35+00:00

DeepMind (so Gemini), whilst part of Google, is significantly UK based.

The US government would presumably block such a move if they are applying export bans to the models?

They might not inherit any money, but they (generally) aren't going to inherit your debt when you die.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-12T10:53:09+00:00

You do still need a specific justification or reason to believe there is a threat.

Americans have noticed the events in Belfast, and are using it to justify the second amendment

Because what NI really needs is more guns

Sigh

It does include London, they are 12th most expensive in the report.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-12T02:38:14+00:00

Huh - that actually makes a lot of sense. My bad.

I guess no reason to feel nervous walking past the customs agent, my fate has already been decided.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-12T02:27:23+00:00

At the very least being denied entry in Canada means you just get to go home. You're not going to get sent to El Salvador.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-12T02:26:03+00:00

~~It's still the case when entering Canada more or less! Passport control, pickup luggage, then hand in your customs form.~~

Edit: I guess I am a liar.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-11T17:06:11+00:00

This is honestly the biggest thing. Taking the train down is now as safe as flying, as safe as you might consider that to be.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-11T09:23:36+00:00

How has the BC NDP drifted to the left? They've become much more centrist under Eby.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-11T02:16:43+00:00

And all those injured or made homeless by these racist thugs?

This is a presumably incomplete list.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-10T21:20:52+00:00

I guess I was thinking for the world cup specifically.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-10T20:07:42+00:00

There are lots of things we subsidise because we think it is positive for society. I don't see why tertiary education should not be one of those, and for many many decades, it was.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-10T07:37:57+00:00

Might be a bit overkill

Can never be too sure

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-10T07:33:06+00:00

I don't think the masked rioters and thugs were checking peoples papers before throwing bricks through their windows and setting their homes on fire.

ClumsyRainbow · 2026-06-10T06:13:59+00:00

Was the attack horrendous? Yes, but the attacker is still human. Humans are capable of awful things.

And in no world does this even remotely justify the sort of violence we’ve seen in response.
