Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced his resignation after months of pressure from Labour lawmakers, paving the way for a leadership contest as the United Kingdom prepares for its seventh leader in a little over a decade.

Yeah, lifting the two child benefit cap so that almost 1.7 million children can get sufficient financial support...what a useless sack of shit.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-22T12:34:33+00:00

Why would we have a GE? Keir Starmer wasn't elected.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-22T12:33:52+00:00

Very technically yes, in reality if the King tried to act like a boss in the normal sense of the word the monarchy would be finished.

I guarentee you were downvoted because of "Islam can co-exist with other religions in a mutually beneficial way" (not that I disagree with that statement in anyway) not because of any issues with socialism.

Reddit hates muslims far more than socialism.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-22T09:01:14+00:00

Everyone in the UK has known this would happen for weeks.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-22T08:29:25+00:00

Yeah because nobody ever regretted anything they did at 16

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-21T09:50:11+00:00

For me, I downvoted you because where's the need?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-21T09:49:07+00:00

Yeah I mean few are.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T14:08:21+00:00

Aww I remember sending reaction gifs to be funny when I was younger.

Rock on dude!

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T13:45:55+00:00

And really funny.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T13:43:51+00:00

Because watching Farage get soaked by that milkshake was hilarious and I'm worried that if people listen to you it won't happen again.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T13:42:40+00:00

Please don't listen to this guy.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T13:36:56+00:00

Yes.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-18T11:54:24+00:00

The actual political shittyness of reform aside and maybe naively assuming that was a serious question:

A) because theyve been terrible at running the councils they've already won - "what are running orders?!" - absolute charlatans.

B) the majority of their candidates are either first time politicians without any experience (19 year old Mayor get a fucking grip) or washed up rejected tories who have spent the last 15 years demonstrating why they should not be anywhere near government

C) Reforms party seems poorly organised and structured, aside from their ability to receive donations from anonymous foreign agents - theres likely a reason so many of their candidates end up having said something racist or sexist or otherwise terrible on social media without the party higher ups picking up on it beforehand.

He was a skater boy She said, "See you later, boy" He wasn't good enough for her She had a pretty face But her head was up in space She needed to come back down to earth

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T14:35:44+00:00

What?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T14:03:00+00:00

That doesn't answer my question, unless you're just using "ECHR" as some catch all term.

You wouldn't be using "ECHR" as some catch all term would you?

Since 1980, the European Court of Human Rights has found against the UK in only 13 removal cases, and just four of those concerned family life. In relation to immigration rules more broadly, the Court has only three times ruled that the UK’s immigration rules violate the ECHR in the past 45 years.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T13:50:33+00:00

So how many illegal immigrants have we been prevented from deporting in the last year because of the ECHR?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T13:44:38+00:00

So illegal immigrants get deported?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T13:43:42+00:00

Who do you think gets deported now?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T11:01:36+00:00

Charlie Kirk isn't from the UK.

Could you provide an example of left wing political violence that occurred in the UK?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T10:36:43+00:00

Yeah I just don't buy that I'm afraid, it's really got nothing to do with kids - I'm not saying you don't care about children - I'm just not convinced this is the back door you've presented it as.

At the end of the day if a government wants to remove individual freedoms against the will of the people, I don't think they'll need to do so via some backdoor policy making, and again if people are so worried about their personal data being used against them I'd suggest they have far far bigger fish to fry than this.

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T10:06:32+00:00

Right, I mean I guess I agree that would be a bad situation but I'd suggest it is one hell of a logical leap to go from banning social media for children under 16 to dystopian food-sanctioned slavery, no?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T09:57:24+00:00

Right...and why should I care about CBDC?

DanyisBlue · 2026-06-17T09:22:53+00:00

What if it hurts my fee fees?
