Hola fellow Labour enthusiasts.

My wife went through the Labour manifesto and tagged every point by topic, which we then loaded into a web app for easy navigation and sharing. Hopefully it will be helpful for anyone sharing the information out to people.

Only for the band (@invincible_pigs) but I think that should probably remain separate as we may not be fully content appropriate to associate with the party

This is pretty cool. I do have two thoughts though. First, check the topics - you've got two separate "Carer's Allowance" topics, Investment/Investments (the latter one doesn't seem very useful), "International Realtions" next to a properly spelled one, and "Univerisities" a few entries above the correct "Universities". There might be more, those just stood out on a scroll through. And I get why it's red, but for me it's kind of painful to look at. (If white text on an otherwise entirely-bold-red screen is how it's meant to look) That's subjective I suppose but just mentioning it.

Wait a tic

How does something go viral "on WhatsApp"? I thought it was like an encrypted group messaging app. There's no feed or anything, right? How does something propagate through the network? Lots of taking photos of chats and sending them to other chats?

Yeah basically you share an image of a news headline and your crazy aunt forwards it to her crazy friends who spread it to their crazy friends. Similarly in India's last election a major problem is group chats with like 250 people in them spreading fake news that then get shared with other 250 person groups. Almost all of that fake news was Islamaphobic and just generally racist shite used to boost the BJP's popularity amongst gobshites.

There are group chats and you can share messages between chats.
