We're just becoming a Poland or Hungary. Which was extremely obviously going to happen if the Tories won but of course they made Corbyn out to be the real danger

orbanization is not a threat to anyone except the working class so the centrist media ghouls and the labour right dont give a poo poo. actual left policy could have threatened their interests, even slightly, so it had to be cannon bombarded from the sea with the utmost prejudice

Poland is especially lovely about gay people and abortions more than trans people on account of the whole catholic fundamentalism thing, trans bashing is Hungary's forte in particular.

I can't decide which is worse TBH. But from a UK media perspective transphobia is far more acceptable of the two.

During the leadership nominations some gammony gently caress gave a speech at my clp about how she's sensible, moderate, likes war the correct amount, then ended it with "and she's brown and female enough for you pc types". It kicked off a bit

My lib dad really likes her, I assume cause the guardian told him he does.

I've been slowly chipping away at him though by reporting what she says and does

When you say Brechin City the first thing I think of is the hedge on one side of their ground.

It still will be, love the hedge. But now there's also the statue, a reminder of the existential horror of being a part of the United Kingdom.

Should've painted it tho

That statue was installed at the Wallace Monument in Stirling in 1996 and literally everyone hated it, except for Alex Salmond who did grinning photo ops with it. They had to have it in a cage because people kept vandalising the weird gurning Mel Gibson statue

Unfortunately, the ice sheet on Greenland has enough mass to pull that the waters around it up, so sea levels will drop all the way to like Edinburgh, and only rise by about a meter around London, despite Greenland having enough ice to raise the average sea level by seven meters. I suspect that means just kinda lovely and expensive, and more vulnerable to storms, not "Cool monument to man's folly/Drowned City of the Goves".

That shipwreck with tons of explosives is a few miles from there so maybe there's still a chance it'll get flooded if that ever goes up.

wonder if any mainstream journalists will mention that the reforms boris has just proposed gently caress over the poorest workers specifically so that the tory base is unaffected
