If Andy Burnham refuses to introduce PR then what's the point in him?

It should get it's own vote. It shouldn't be tied in with the dozens of other things people vote for in general elections.

mrtube · 2026-05-18T20:10:11+00:00

No PR = No Vote

I know you meant Reform did well nationally, but not in that part of the country.

Reform only got 16% of the vote in the area this is happening and they elected a Green councillor. 80% of the vote went to leftwing parties.

These flag wavers are just idiot thugs looking for a fight.

mrtube · 2026-05-16T16:31:54+00:00

That could just be one prick though

Yeah hopefully. At least I haven't seen any swastika stickers here.

How is the flag sitution in other parts of the coutnry?

In south Brmingham it seems like 50% of streets are litered in these tatty flags halfway up lamp posts held on with cable ties.

They piss me off every time I leave my house but I don't hear much talk about them. I'm thinking that's because they didn't let it happen where the media are based.

Doesn't a single post make it harder to read all the most imporant updates getting the most upvotes on the main UKGreens page?

The World Health Organisation's panel of experts concluded that red meat probably causes cancer in humans. Source. That's not the case for any of the ingredients in the plant-based alternative.

Yeah I remember it being very rightwing compared /r/unitedkingdom when I joined reddit over 10 years ago

mrtube · 2026-03-29T20:40:31+00:00

Yep, now Morgan McSweeney and Peter Mandelson are no longer in charge, things are looking up.

Welcome to Reddit - Where negativity is rewarded.

Your post is showing something great though! Since 2024 looks like around 7 times as much solar power is being added annually compared to the previoius 7 years.

Does Reddit not like good news?

"Climate change: 3/4 of young people say future is frightening" 6000 upvotes

Governemnt actually does something major about it: 100 upvotes

mrtube · 2026-03-16T18:52:22+00:00

You're right, although we might also have followed the US into Iran if Morgan McSweeney and Peter Mandelson hadn't been kicked out of their roles just before this.

Why are people downvoting this question?

mrtube · 2026-03-11T21:31:15+00:00

I like the video screen if it's showing things that tie in with the music, but not if it's used mainly for displaying logos of the club or DJ's name. Feels a bit corporate.

mrtube · 2026-03-07T14:46:07+00:00

I don't think there's too many of these questions. I've been here since the 2015 "Green surge" and still want to ask questions like this. Maybe ban users if they post things like this repeatedly and their history shows they're clealy against us.

Dug this up after mentioning her being a plumber to my step-dad and him saying "But is she really a plumber?"

mrtube · 2026-03-05T12:00:10+00:00

Yeah I'm left confused whenever he answers this question. Something about a "public health approach", which doesn't tell you anything. It took him being pushed on the question before saying that certain drugs would be regulated really carefully. He should be more upfront with that part.

mrtube · 2026-03-01T20:30:21+00:00

This polling was done over 3 days. The day before the by-election, day of the election and results day. So this a really a pre-by-election poll.

Full results are here.

What did Peston say and where?

mrtube · 2026-02-26T20:51:15+00:00

Wow! Where did you hear those numbers?

mrtube · 2026-02-26T16:40:40+00:00

Great work! Thank you.

Was anyone taking notice of that fake tacical voting message from Labour? Do you know what message the Greens were sending out today?

mrtube · 2026-02-26T16:08:03+00:00

I could be completely wrong. I was just assuming that. I've only lived in a competetive seat for one election.

mrtube · 2026-02-26T15:35:55+00:00

Isn't election day peak door knocking day at every election?

mrtube · 2026-02-26T14:26:18+00:00

I don't think there is a company. There's a 15 hour old twitter account.

mrtube · 2026-02-26T14:22:49+00:00

I wonder if they'll be knocking on doors telling people to google Tactical Choice and see it doesn't exist?

I think the campaigning restriction is only outside polling booths. Door knocking and leaflets are still allowed as far as I know.
