That's pretty impressive since most of the major media outlets in the UK are running a full court press against Labour.

Will lives in Japan now and doesn't really strike me as the kind of guy who will be avidly keeping up with news from back home. Zack is possibly his only source of information about the ongoing election.

Now I'm just imagining that ZSJ and Chris Brookes have a My Fair Lady style bet about if ZSJ can radicalize Will.

I can't imagine there are many wrestlers against the concept of nationalized health care, considering how impossible it would be to get them properly insured otherwise. NHS is probably the bridge too far for Ospreay.

Yeah, they have a list of registered voters at the polling station. Don't have to register for every individual election though, they'll just send a thing every so often asking if your details are still correct.

I'm sure plenty of them are against it even though it would benefit them because it's socialism. Same as...well, just about everyone who's against it.

It's the worst, most "sorry if you were offended" kind of non-apology. He spends more time explaining his enjoyment of stirring up controversy than actually addressing or apologizing for the thing.

edit for quote:

quote:

“I sent out a tweet. It was an unpopular opinion, as I often do with the intention of just stirring up a little controversy, maybe have something fun to talk about on TV or here on the show. It was maybe not the most professional way to go about things and it was not meant to offend, disrespect or disparage anybody, that was never my intention. If it was taken as such, I apologize deeply, that was not my intention. I would never intentionally cause anybody any undue stress, especially a co-worker.”

Yes, and Republicans hate that people vote, so they do their best to make it as onerous a process as possible. I assume Torys do the same in the UK.

They have on their manifesto an intent to require photo ID to vote if they survive this election which would cut the homeless and poor from the effective voter pool.

I am neither British nor American and I don't need to register to vote. Seems like a way to keep voter turnout lower, especially among younger people who tend to have less interest in politics anyway. Maybe it's necessary for a large country like the US, but if say Spain can handle voter registration automatically, I don't know why the UK can't.
