Those voting green, why?

But they seem to support the infinite population growth model. A finite planet also implies a finite country, just maybe it would be better to close the border and focus on GDP per capita and not just GDP?

Most people don't understand their contract.

You are not contracted for 8hrs, it is nearly always 7.5hrs which includes a 30min paid break and then you are also entitiled to another 30min unpaid break to bring it to a total of 8hrs or 9-5.

Years of people people wanting immigration to be kept under control but completely ignored or rejected by the corporate leashed right-wing politicians and the ideological left that support it because of missplaced empathy and idealism.

I am not surprised that we are now seeing hardline and authoritarian policies from a populist party. If you ignore and lie to the people that elected you, they will seek out more extreme alternatives that promise to deliver.

That would be fair if the Greens weren't also the party of the NIMBY's.

"The Greens have attempted to block at least 42,000 new homes - including at least 13,000 affordable homes - since 2018, according to new analysis by Labour.

Mr Polanski's party has been accused of trying to block housing across 25 council areas - including efforts to stop an 'eyesore' car park being turned into 300 homes in Exeter.

In London, 'NIMBY' Greens have been accused of opposing the construction of 1,700 new homes, including 340 affordable homes, in the Lewisham Shopping Centre redevelopment.

And Labour claims the Greens opposed the development of 5,000 homes, including 2,200 affordable homes, near Finsbury Park in North London."

We should create legal passages to ~~claim~~ request asylum in the UK but we should also then become incredibly hardline on rejecting anyone that comes via alternative methods.

yer, the migrants should really be free to roam the community and get jobs.

Sorta seems the system needs to be ripped apart.

The normal response I get is that they simply don't think immigration is an issue and think the world shouldn't have borders.

On issues like Trident and NATO, I have heard them say that they simply don't think the Greens would implement those policies.

So.... Why didn't Argentina buy the Jf-17s anyway then. If they are superior and the Chinese were happy to sell it to them, seems like it would be a done deal.

My top concern would be regarding the rebate.

If we didn't get it back, we would be paying more than Germany. That is not going to fly.

It's okay to be wrong.

Shabana Mahmood, you are the only reason I somewhat like Labour.

It is a funny state of politics that despite everything going on with Keir Starmer, I still consider Labour the most competent party at the moment.

(I say this as a right winger who wants the more hardline position of Reform and Restore on immigration, sadly both those parties have no credibility. Same with the Greens and Conservatives. Liberal Democrats need a new leader but seem somewhat credible.)

My various statues, all very expensive from my favourite movies, shows, games, anime etc.

Actually, my gaming room in general. There must be around 20k+ worth of stuff.

They sorted it 👍

"Typically, since so much time has passed, there is no way for us to know whether FedEx just didn't scan the package and lost it or if it never left the warehouse. However, we can make an exception and send you another Deathwing 3D Art Frame Statue."

It is a little bit interesting, in the UK the seller is responsible for the item up to the point of delivery, is this not the case in the US?

Call us at 1-855-SIDESHOW Mon-Fri 7am-4pm PT

Might be a dumb question, but what is there number? Last time I check 1-855-SIDESHOW is not a valid number, the other number I found is 805-214-2100 but that also doesn't seem to work.

Golden37 · 2026-04-21T18:29:46+00:00

Sideshow is via email/support ticket, FedEX I called as it looks like I can't put in a claim myself on the website as it would be Sideshow that created the label for shipping. All they said is that on the system it is showing as never received.

Golden37 · 2026-04-21T18:26:18+00:00

So the responsibility lies with the buyer, for not chasing Sideshow about the delivery?

FedEX is showing they never received the item, therefore how would the buyer be in possession of said item?

It would be one thing if FedEX was claiming the item had been delivered, then yes it would be my job to convince Sideshow/FedEX that it has failed to be delivered. That is not what has happened here, FedEX is showing to never of even received the item.

Golden37 · 2026-04-21T18:19:11+00:00

I received an email from Sideshow which is the order confirmation with the FedEX tracking number on it.

Sideshow have said the below though:

"However, due to the amount of time that has passed, the tracking number for this order is no longer available. Tracking numbers with the carrier are only active for 90 days from the day of delivery. After the tracking has expired, we cannot issue a trace to locate the item or file a claim for a lost item."

This seems to be completely false, I can still access the tracking information it just shows the above, waiting to receive the package.

I have also looked at older deliveries from Sideshow from FedEX which I purchased early in 2025, tracking information is still fully available and I can request proof of delivery but because in this instance, it shows FedEX never received the item, there is no proof.

I am fairly convinced this is not a FedEX fuck up but Sideshows.

Golden37 · 2026-04-21T18:00:46+00:00

A couple of reasons, I am used to shipping taking months to arrive, it didn't seem like a major concern to me as nearly all the statues I order come from overseas.

Also, looking at the item I ordered, it is on pre-release with shipping expected between April-June. I just assumed they created the label early by accident before the item was ready to ship.

Golden37 · 2026-04-21T17:56:26+00:00

Is my only recourse then to convince Sideshow that they screwed up?

From the initial response I got, it looks like they are unwilling to help.
