I got a booster early this month and then got covid 10 days later. It sucked and I would recommend you not get covid

Went to get my booster yesterday and the guy, who was English but had apparently lived in Scotland a long time, recognised my English accent and started going on like 'so I guess we agree that it would be terrible to split up this country'. Very awkward moment trying to grit my teeth and act noncommittal as a man prepared to shove a bit of sharp metal into my arm lol.

I'm done. There are no Good Labour MPs. Even the likes of Zarah Sultana and Ian Byrne are still asking people to vote for an openly racist, transphobic party. Corbyn is still chasing reinstatement... None of them are of any use if they can't see that the party needs to die and something new created to represent the working class. As far as I'm concerned every Left Wing Labour MP that asks us to vote Labour in any coming election is as much an enemy of my class as the Right Wing Labour MPs who want my political values crushed.

And fair, I'm not quite that unwilling to vote for my local MP and as far as I'm concerned these right-wing cunts in Labour have to die eventually. Then hopefully the reigns can be snatched from the McShitter, but the short-term is bleak.

my impression is that the hard left no longer cares as much about Lords abolition as it once did. The furious anger at the Lords for undermining Wilson and Callaghan is no longer there. There are no longer veterans like Benn and Foot of the embarrassing failed reform in 1968 by WIlson partly is that New Labour's reform has already successfully chipped away at the powers of hereditary peers anyway. but mainly, the hard left has just moved on to other issues. point is, it used to be the case that the hard left intensely cared about Lords abolition and so the soft left and liberals could use Lords reform as a way to forge compromise. If the hard left doesn't give a drat and it's just liberals pretending that Charter 88 is still fresh off the printing press then who is it intended to impress. It was already getting stale in the early 2000s, which is why Lords reform stalled then

Tsietisin posted:Rob Newman is still touring doing stand up, went to see him last month and had a great time. Seriously consider going to see him if he's showing near you sometime. A few years ago an acquaintance of mine said Newman had become a full on conspiracy theorist which made me a bit sad. Then I saw footage of a show of his on YouTube and it was him warning about stuff like huge multinational corporations working with powerful governments to extract wealth from the poor, which is hardly a conspiracy theory. Failed Imagineer posted:Jay Kay "Jamiroquai" Rowling is now pretty far down the internet fash funnel AKA the Bors Pipeline. What a loving weapon Not surprising, she supported Matt Walsh with his "What is a Woman" docubollocks. But of course didn't agree with his misogyny, as if the two weren't linked.

COVID booster chat-- the nhs-booked vaccines are a separate system to the pharmacy's own system and we don't have any access to it and the system allows people to book whether or not we have stock of the vaccination or a pharmacist who can administer it. So I would call ahead before leaving the house if I were you.

Dude, everyone knows Labour sucks. And everyone with a functioning brain expects even left-wing Labour MPs to promote the party because if they don't they'll be deselected and won't win at the next General Election. And then there'll be basically no left-wing MPs at all. I dunno about you, but I'd rather there are a few left-wing MPs to fly the flag for good causes than twenty more centre-right cunts too thick to realise how useless Starmer is.

MeinPanzer posted:Also ya I know relatively little about Baddiel beyond football song and the Corbyn antisemitism poo poo (just saw that the graundiad gave his documentary a glowing review, btw... what a shock) but watching the season of Taskmaster featuring him really solidified how much of a dumb piece of poo poo he is. He might not have been the absolute worst contestant ever on that show, but he's definitely up there. I think the time he posted a pic of his melted glasses, that he had microwaved, on twitter solidified it for me that he's a very dim person.

Good. This Tory government and all the ones before it are incapable of understanding that there are bits of the north and middle of the country, that usually have the M1 running through them, that are so heavily industrialised already that the only thing left to build on is working farmland. Whenever you bring this up some chucklefuck will try to “own” you by calling you a NINBY when it’s always on the poorer area’s back yard and never ever on theirs. I think a lot of people have no idea just how many big metal warehouses have sprung up on the old brownfield sites in this country, the Amazon near me is about 2 miles long and 1 mile wide for example.
