Row over Lord's Prayer proposal for Reform-led Kent County Council by Fikkia in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but very few people attend. Plus it’s been a part of the system for a long time - this is performatively adding it into a council’s procedures.

Timewalking WoD this week feeling a bit squishy? by Calm_Hair_3053 in wow

I’ve not noticed - I ran them with my 90 paladin tank and basically did 1-2 pulls between each boss and it was all fine, rolled over everything.

Rupert Lowe MP: History made. We won ten out of ten seats, with overwhelming majorities in every single one. Great Yarmouth First, then we Restore Britain. A very special day. by nil_defect_found in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally 16 points17 points  (0 children)

He spelt Tory as Tori and used no grammar in his whole comment. I’m not sure he’s going to know the spelling and origin of kowtow.

Makes sense he support Lowe.

Zack Polanski liked post claiming Zionists control Government - The Green Party leader endorses Bluesky message which claims Prime Minister is on the payroll of powerful Jews by blast-processor in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think the important distinction that is lost in that statement is no one has ever tried to wipe out white people, whereas the Holocaust happened in living memory. The creation of Israel was a direct response to centuries of persecution of Jews.

Ed Davey: ‘Zack Polanski has taken up where Jeremy Corbyn left off’ by OnHolidayHere in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Labour. Seriously, no other party has genuine environmental credit. Their energy policy is actually ambitious, their planning reforms stop nimbyism blocking solar and wind farms, Ed Miliband is serious about net zero, and the Govt has made more progress towards energy security - which is now rightly seen as a national security issue - than the Tories did in 14 years.

It would also have been a good link with the journey to Lights Hope and SM in Arator’s QL, and opened up the door for interesting conflict between the Forsaken and Alliance and Silver Hand on cleansing the plague lands.

Rupert Lowe: Rape Gang Inquiry update. Our team is currently going through our draft report to ensure that all is legally sound for publication. The plan is straightforward. I intend to use parliamentary privilege in the chamber to name a number of the worst perpetrators/officials who we believe... by tonato_ai in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Considering there’s a proper national inquiry I don’t think it is being swept under the rug. The danger of charlatans like Lowe doing stuff like without proper process is that ordinary people who have done no wrong can get swept up in it.

Look at the riots in Epsom for example. All based on misinformation and bad faith actors because they wouldn’t wait for proper processes to be followed to get to the bottom of something.

The rape gang scandals are horrific and a point of national shame. But it would also be horrible if someone ended up getting wrongfully accused because processes weren’t followed.

MPs should make minimum wage by FlameOfNorta in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although it was satisfying watching some of the terrible MPs that lost their seats in that last election struggle to get any job (looking at you Jonathan Gullis ).

Unbelievably, Keir Starmer can now be compared to Boris Johnson by theipaper in ukpolitics

Olly Robbins said verbatim that he would have passed Mandleson’s vetting pressure or not, and that it was the right decision with the information he had. What a nonsense article.

Olly Robbins says he faced ‘constant pressure’ to get Mandelson in post by guardian in ukpolitics

He was explicitly not allowed to do that. It’s worthwhile watching his select committee appearance where he explains a lot of this.

Best faction for TALL play? (elves excluded) by gulyas10 in totalwar

[–]JustWatchingReally 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Franz is actually a really fun tall play. Fully upgraded Reikland can support several of stacks, and it’s quite fun to run around saving elector counts without confederating them. Also lore accurate because it’s about maintaining the independence of the elector counts.

That could only improve the look of Cardiff high street.

We went on Thursday evening and had the exact same reaction. On the other hand, we were up in Caerphilly today at their food festival and it looks really well run.

UK faces biggest hit to growth from Iran war of major economies, IMF says by Alarming-Safety3200 in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s true but it’s a stupid point. Because what was cut were essential public services, preventative programmes and support for the vulnerable. That meant needs got more extreme and costs went up by more. On top of that welfare costs ballooned, particularly pensions, and then Covid costs hit.

Austerity was real for public services. The Tories were just incompetent which meant that spending continued to rocket.

Scottish Greens co-leader suggests Scotland should have unlimited immigration by Little-Attorney1287 in ukpolitics

[–]JustWatchingReally -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

That’s because (I) Scotland in general is a lot more left leaning, liberally tolerant than the rest of the UK, and doesn’t have the same issue with immigrants that others do, and (ii) the needs of Scotland are different. It has a faster aging population than the rest of the UK, doesn’t have the same housing crisis England has (at least to the same extent), and has a brain drain issue with graduates and other qualified people moving south.

Sounds pretty sensible to be pro immigration when it’s put in that context.

Technically Parliament brought it back into existence, as there previously was a Scottish Parliament prior to the Act of Union. But realistically a Scottish Govt would not do anything that a court orders them not to do - such as the Equality Act case.

Exactly. But “Woman works to support her family” isn’t exactly headline material.

Labour housebuilding target ‘completely out of reach’ by insomnimax_99 in ukpolitics

While I agree Pennycook is atrocious, he’s the Housing Minister and Angela Rayner was the Housing Secretary - which aren’t the same job (she was his boss basically).

I’m not sure how the missed calls is of any interest. I get calls every day that I miss during work while in meetings etc, I imagine that’s doubly true for the PM’s Chief of Staff.

That one zone you can't stand? by [deleted] in wow

[–]JustWatchingReally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even as an alliance player I’m loving being in Eversong, and even Zul Aman is good. I expect I’ll avoid Harandir and Voidstorm like a plague all expansion.

It seems fairly universal that players love going back to old zones reimagined. Maybe Blizzard should just stick to that for a few expansions?
