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

will be interesting to see the fall out from this change since there is a reason they're rushing it through

it's a crystal clear example of how politics in the this country functions and the way the consent sausage is made

first the red lines (capital gains/inheritance/corporation tax increases) are drawn; then the debate is packaged up for our media to have a big pointless bun fight over whether poor old people or poor young people should pay for social care

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



Oh, so much irony it hurts.

Oh hey finally the UK taxpayers will have to pay an NHS levy alongside national insurance just like the filthy EU country I was born in (this is quite literally how the national health insurance works there, including roughly the amount).

It's genius really, get people used to paying for healthcare AND make a new regressive tax. What's not to like.

Our war against free speech cannot end until we silence this bronze beast!


Raising tax to pay for the NHS and social care is a popular policy

In reality the tories will be raising taxes to pay themselves to gut the NHS and throw all the elderly into a landfill but reality has no bearing on electoral politics

Also lol at the loving sewage thing, I work with one of our regulators sometimes and this poo poo is already constantly happening cause British society is set up so nobody is responsible for anything important

I was wondering if in the face of frequent climate disaster, whether the gov would realise how broken it all was and try to overhaul it but that was stupid.
The UK gov always opts to not do any work if it possibly can, so why not just throw your hands up and give up

But I was thinking, God bless Corbyn for not doing a bernie

I am still mad at him for loving up our one shot so bad but at least he isn't fundraising for Keith and making it look like he doesn't give a gently caress.
He's legit. Just also kind of oblivious
