Depends why he's opposed to drug use, you'd likely need to talk to him about it, and it's quite possible he might just not be comfortable with it.

Have you got meningitis? Sorry to hear that - hope you recover soon! I think I saw that guy's post. I think he thinks 'vote against the whip' = 'vote with the tories'.

Just asked the missus, about this. From the police's perspective the operators have been told it would be transferred to the action centre (because they barely have enough staff to handle the calls), and that the action centre would log it for investigation, then it gets passed back to the police investigation teams. This is not entirely a police thing, this is yet another private sector contractor turning out to be worse than loving useless. The thing to remember is that when prosecutions aren't pursued, 99% of the time it's the CPS refusing to act unless they have absolute certainty the conviction is guaranteed. This feeds back to officers developing a culture of not investigating things because they already know it's pointless. I know it's tempting to ascribe malice to every action the police take, and they absolutely have a meathead boot-boy problem with their rank and file, but in this case it's more down to the cuts to funding and numbers that has driven the police to shunting a fairly important chunk of their reporting off to a private firm who are doing gently caress all with it.

^^ sounds horrendous ^^ Corbyn votes: A couple of years ago, I downloaded all his votes from 1997 to 2015 I think it was. In that period of time, he voted against the Labour whip approx 510 times. In the same time period he voted WITH the labour whip over 3100 times. That is 85% loyal over nearly 20 years. Has anyone analysed the number of votes against the whip of other politicians? The only other one I've seen is the one where since 2010 Jo Swinson voted WITH the tory whip more often than Hunt and Gove (who appear to have voted against the tory whip around 300 times in just 8 or 9 years if I remember correctly). A former labour mp I know told me that much of the time when MPs vote they don't actually know what they are voting for (there are very many votes) and just go in the lobby they're told to go in. He mentioned one occasion when he was in a lobby with Jack Straw and said 'what are we voting on' and Straw said 'I have no idea'. He said there was an 'awkward squad' of around 40MPs (of which Corbyn was one - he didn't confirm whether he meant just labour MPs or all MPs) who wouldn't vote in a lobby unless they knew what they were voting for. "That's good" said I. He looked surprised that I thought it was another plus to Corbyn.

That sounds like a fairly complex thing to unpick in that case, definitely a long conversation kind of thing.

gh0stpinballa posted:reading the news coming out of bolivia right now, feel ill. i don't mean to sound western-centric but tbh i would not be surprised at all if our own fash psychos start disputing the result in the (unlikely) event of a labour majority. they've already threatened to coup his government several times and we know what nadhim zahawi, as one example, is deeply involved in. In 13 years he couldn’t find anyone else who had the ~charisma~ to run the country. 13 years in power and the choice was still “me personally or right wing hellscape”. I mean, obviously better him than the coup but holy poo poo why make it so easy for the rightists to paint you as the bad guy? Just find one competent human being, you had 13 years to do it, why wasn’t there a stable of like 10 people? Maybe Putin’s great innovation was playing pass-the-parcel with Medvedev.

The people who don't know what they're doing are supposedly normal but anyone asking for an explanation on how the country is run is 'awkward'.

OwlFancier posted:War to end all wars, what's that? The one before the war where we revert back to sticks and stones. (Still the best operation flashpoint death quote too) E: full excerpt: Professor Albert Einstein was asked by friends at a recent dinner party what new weapons might be employed in World War III. Appalled at the implications, he shook his head. After several minutes of meditation, he said. “I don’t know what weapons might be used in World War III. But there isn’t any doubt what weapons will be used in World War IV.” “And what are those?” a guest asked. “Stone spears,” said Einstein. It’s anecdotal but still pretty undeniable.

The Bolivian coup is awful, but I'll be honest, I can't say I have much trust for Telesur's take on anything. They're the propaganda arm for a bunch of shithead bandits taking Osbornian economics to their logical conclusion. Kind of like how even if we all agree Tory Britain is poo poo, we don't go around sharing Socialist Worker articles on the subject.
