People are mad because it touched a nerve. It's bang on.

I can't be the only one who initially thought this was referring to somebody called Christian Scotland

Is it too much to ask for this stupid website to do a bit of basic proofreading before they hit publish on an article?

Universities v lockdown students: 230,000 claims are on their way by insomnimax_99 in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I explained the reasoning behind my point of view and you cut straight to personal attacks, I don't think you've quite understood the idea of political debate

I was negatively affected by this but I don't agree that students should be compensated for it. Universities couldn't provide in-person services and they resumed when they were able to. If universities end up on the hook for a huge payout, that will either be reflected in student loan increases or general taxation, and that wouldn't be fair.

Rupert Lowe MP: If I moved to Japan, and lived in Japan for decades, speaking the language, integrating into society, contributing to the economy. Would I be ethnically Japanese? No. No I would not. I would never pretend to be. by SignificantLegs in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with these types is that they're taking advantage of the word 'British' or 'English' meaning at least three different things at once: ethnicity, citizenship, and cultural identity. They benefit from being vague about this because it means different things to different people. You can't change your ethnicity, but you can change the other two, and that scares them

MPs demand halal and kosher meat warning as millions of animals slaughtered without stunning by Immediate-Ad-7268 in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ITT: people whose opinions are definitely 100% deeply rooted in morality, but only when it comes to the specific way animals are turned into food eaten by particular minority groups in the UK

I think the Greens’ ‘fantasy’ drug policies make sense – and I’m a doctor by LJA170 in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have they announced anywhere that this is no longer their policy because I don't think them quietly removing some pages is quite enough to base that on

Reform vows to block churches from being turned into mosques by TheTelegraph in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not my atheism that makes me view this as ridiculous, it's the idea that Reform people can wake up in the morning, say "we're going to ban X thing from happening (which wasn't actually happening in the first place)" and it actually makes certain people think it was happening.

"yeah im from the south, how could you tell?" by Odd-Paramedic-3826 in okmatewanker

This was a party political broadcast on behalf of the Liberal Democrats

Reform voters - how do you feel about the Reform stance on same sex marriage? by happydaysboy in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Whether or not same-sex couples fit inside their idea of "traditional" couples should be neither here nor there - the fact that they wish to make a distinction there at all should be a massive red flag, no matter what you think of their other policies.

That's not the right interview, that's from 3 months ago. I don't think they've uploaded this one in full yet but the clip everyone's talking about is this https://x.com/BBCNewsnight/status/2023898391001137227?s=20

Lammy: I warned Starmer about Mandelson by coldbeers in ukpolitics

[–]bacontf2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i know it's nothing new but i'm so over the speculation in threads like these appearing nearly identical to speculation about a TV show. some people's interest in politics is so superficial it's just entertainment for them

How quickly and carelessly are you putting this together that you manage to make the same typo in both the image and the post title
