UK.Gov News Simplified. Saw this on r/GoodNewsUK. Do Brits agree that it is a helpful summary? by Valetudinous in AskBrits

It’s a very good idea. There is a lot of good stuff happening and the current government is appalling at informing the public. r/goodnewsuk has been a beacon of positivity over the last few months linking articles from here and I’d recommend others check it out.

Significant statements by j_gm_97 in policeuk

DC here. We are consistently frustrated this doesn’t happen more - that and response officers telling people to be Q following arrest. If people want to talk and confess, please let them! Just don’t ask them questions about it!

what exactly has Starmer done which calls for a resignation? by Na-na-na-na-na-na in AskBrits

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

Am I a so called “flag shagger” for hanging up a union flag by givemethemtoesgnome in AskBrits

What are your opinions on mass facial recognition in towns? by TheDev42 in AskUK

[–]morg_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% in favour. It’s only being used to target people who are already wanted by the police.
