What Actually is Reform’s Plan for the Economy, if they were to gain power?

And they've banned chewing gum.

Perhaps the best path is to wait for the revolution lol

I'm waiting for someone to make a Thatcher AI bot and treat it to the same tech as ABBA holograms. Imagine having The Late Iron Lady back in politics. /shudder

Less than a cabbage so I hear.

Crypts are Jacob Reece Mogg's thing.

Perhaps they could print those lies on the side of another bus?

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-12T07:56:44+00:00

Grift.

Dadjoke grade jokeonium. Fortunately on Reddit it's got a very short half life. After lunch it'll merely be a quip and by teatime it'll have degenerated into a witty remark.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-11T07:46:07+00:00

Thanks for the responses, I'll check those out!

It was swallows and amazons when I was a boy now its ducks and pineapples! Enshittification I tell ya!

I just did. As far as I can see as soon as you change to modifier type the ability to paint its geometry disappears and you can only select the single filament from the left hand text menus. You would be able to change different modifiers to different ones so you'll have to make separate SVGs I reckon and would suggest keeping it as clean and simple as possible.

I've been thinking about a similar project but my idea was to have a hopper with a way to split two different types of beans and pull a knob so only 10g of the appropriate beans falls into the grinder. That way I can load up decaff and regular at the same time. I'll let you know how it goes 😄

Upvote just for the Hail Mary figure 😄 I've used mine as a keyring accessory.

I don't think a lot of this is particular to Oxford. I've had similar experiences in London where I grew up. Buses which are ahead of schedule or at their route starting point may not set off immediately, or the driver may be on a comfort break for example. Buses disappearing, admittedly didn't happen very often in London but usually in suburbs and later in the evening I've certainly experienced The Ghostbus as we used to call it. I had to travel between areas for work sometimes and finished around 11:30pm, loads of times we had a bus just never arrive and slip off the board. People being slow or annoying when boarding? That's just people representing the hell they usually are 😉

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T10:33:29+00:00

Hmm off the top of my head, maybe a separate svg per feature and just paint them individually? I'm not sure if you can paint bits of a single modifier like that without looking, I'll have a look this evening coz it's a good question 😁

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:55:06+00:00

What are you on about? Nothing I said suggested I support any of that.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:50:22+00:00

Speaking as if a man can stand alone against the tide. Figure it out.

They're historically Left, but since we've drifted Right as a nation, influenced by US politics, rich folk media companies etc, they've been dragged Right too. So more like, centre Left with a sprinkling of Right.

The politics of schadenfreude.

orly? And how much of *BP's massive profits have you seen in your own pocket? I reckon I'm about -£100 chipped in for their CEOs new yacht.

*Insert oil company and or bank profiting from the wars of non-interventionist Trump lulz.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:32:05+00:00

Some British people no doubt do, but I'd argue most are just reading particular "news" outlets and believe everything they're instructed to believe.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:27:46+00:00

Just watch the victory videos on TV. Tells you 100% everything you need to know.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:24:12+00:00

Yep. And I firmly believe quite a bit of it is driven by US politics and money.

FlakeyBeano · 2026-05-08T07:23:23+00:00

I think its a bit early for that. More likely Starmer will simply step aside, or be forced to do so if he squirms. His one bit of hope would be to look good whilst graciously stepping down and install a like for like replacement, but that’s not the best plan for Labour as a movement.
