You know, if Rupert Murdoch would pay me to make the point that conservatives are unfuckable over and over again, I'd take it in a heart beat.

there's some trueanon episodes with a guy discussing the spy cops stuff which are really good(/horrifying/frustrating etc)

The Spycops poo poo was so horrifying that even the loving Guardian, meltiest of all the newspapers, managed to get outraged by it.

Netpol/Network for Police Monitoring are a really good bunch of act as "independent observers" at a lot of protests to ensure that people's rights are protected from the filth.

And I know CSPAM gets weird about anarchists but the Green & Black Cross do fantastic work protecting the legal rights of protesters too in England & Wales (different groups do similar in Scotland & I assume NI). If you do go to a protest in E&W you should really have a copy of their bustcard in case you get lifted, both explaining what your rights are, that you should say nothing but "no comment" without legal representation, etc, plus contacts for local law firms who provide free legal advice & have experts on protest law, unlike a duty solicitor who will probably be useless.

Somethings got to happen. They've made it clear that leftist is a dirty word in Labour so we now officially have two center-right parties. And a bunch of ostensibly leftist mp's that aren't sure what they're doing? I mean if you want to lead a fast growing party now would be the time. Every politically conscious leftist would migrate. I don't expect to come even close to winning the next election but there'd at least be a point in voting (sort of, maybe not due to fptp). Like does Keith have to call us all cunts directly before the center-left mp's get the message that they're dead people walking?

Shahrar Ali seems to be eating absolute poo poo in the leadership contest, at least. Turns out there aren't actually many takers on his platform that the Greens should primarily exist to poo poo on trans people, and the other two candidate teams are running on 'we like LGBT rights' and 'we really like LGBT rights'.

'ostensibly leftist' is the key thing here, the socialist campaign group is largely not committed to anything beyond 'the Labour Party'

I'm observing the Breakthrough Party (by following their Facebook page).

I'm not going green round here because in my neck of the woods, green party supporters I know would go tory if there were no green candidate and it seems to be a camouflage for nimbyism. I have read that Scottish greens are a different kettle of fish.

There was a brief, shallow window of time when there was one party that wasn't exclusively for ageing middle class racists and the press will never forgive it.

Massive effort by the press right now to say you should just phone the police if you're stopped by a plainclothes officer to prove they're an officer.

Like that would have helped at all

The guy who raped and killed the woman was an actual police, not somebody pretending to be police.

Just incapable of removing the tongue from the boot long enough to admit that if a police wants to fake-arrest you then don't actually have many options because they have all the power in that interaction and maybe the answer isn't more police. "If you don't think you're being arrested legitimately then just run away" genius of the smooth brain variety

It might only be 1000 and it's not agreed yet, but the skilled visa route (if I'm reading it right) is at least your standard work visa, so, uh, I guess there's that?

Then again it might just be a rebranding of the seasonal labourer scheme, we'll see.

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

Giving households livestock to maintain themselves is decommodifying the food supply and is therefore inconceivable to the state no matter what the benefits of it or costs of alternatives are.
