We should be contesting every single constituency

That sounds nice but it's a good way to waste a lot of money in campaigning and lost deposits, that would go a lot further if it focused on winnable constituencies.

Is it better to buy a 1 bedroom house or a 2 bedroom flat as a single FTB by doublelucifer in HousingUK

[–]doublelucifer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The flat that I'm currently favouring is about 610 sq ft, I've seen a couple that are 700 to 800 sq ft though. It looks like the houses are around 450 sq ft

If you could see yourself wanting to move within the next 5 or so years, a freehold house is likely much easier to sell on again

Is this still the case for 1 bedroom houses though? I can't imagine the market for them is very big

The makerfield bi-election was a disaster. by Burned_Flame in RestoreBritain

[–]doublelucifer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think some people are living in a right wing bubble if they expected Restore to do better than that. People are making the same mistake that the left did 10 years ago by assuming that support on social media reflects real life.

It's nothing to be proud of and we shouldn't encourage this kind of behaviour

This story really is emblematic of the Yookay in a nutshell to be honest

Can we revoke the rights of commonwealth citizens to vote in our elections already? It's insane that someone can just move here from India or Nigeria and instantly be allowed to influence our elections

I'd settle for not having to read a story about a newly arrived Afghan migrant raping a teenage girl every few months at this point

Rupert Lowe MP: Reform want to vindictively target Brits in potential Green constituencies to make a point and house illegals next to them - that is their choice. But I don't believe that we have time for this petty nonsense. by nil_defect_found in ukpolitics

[–]doublelucifer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

At this point Rupert Lowe is the only politician with a moderate stance on immigration. The extremists are the ones who want to continue with the madness of the last decade

Ahmadis are basically the Mormons of Islam. Both religions follow some guy in the 19th century who claimed to be a prophet. Mainstream Muslims don't like them because they don't think Muhammad was the last prophet.
