I think that most of us would be reasonably satisfied with Osborne getting carted off to The Hague. Absent that being a realistic possibility, though, you are absolutely going to get people hungering for more direct and feasible forms of justice. I am certainly not calling for the assassinations of senior political figures (hi, mods!), but the unfortunate reality is that if you want vigilante violence against your country's elite to lose its popular appeal, you're going to have to provide some other effective, reliable means by which they can be held to account for vast and heinous human rights abuses. This is especially relevant in the current political climate, where all major players appear to be determined to reduce their public appeal as much as possible while removing any meaningful, useful official systems of accountability, and while I again do not endorse or encourage political assassination as a tactic, I can't help but grimly wonder which one of these chuckleheads is going to get themselves capped first.

It's just so depressing that the people like Osbourne and those around him, who may as well have infinity money, influence and zero responsibility compared to the rest of us seem to live such a shallow, bitter, hateful existence. It's not even really saucy or surprising. It's just sad and dull. They're all like that too, they do nothing of interest with their money, they have no imagination, no joy, barely any love. It's just misery and backstabbing and hate. I'm not sorry for them, they can all go gently caress off, but it's just going to happen again with Starmer and Labour in power once they're cemented and stop acting like nervous children caught at the cookie jar.

The most likely outcome is that Starmer's Labour actively cracks down on left-leaning councils because they "want" to make Labour "seen as a party of governance" when what they actually want to do is be Tories controlling the supposed left-leaning party.

https://archive.is/7mZlk Govt has zero ability to think through the consequences of its own laws. So will they blame the EU? "But the EU-derived version applied in the UK" or realize that as ever the UK has been overzealous with its interpretation of EU laws (my go to example being CONDAM regulations introduced back in the 90s*) Torygraph: quote:Jeremy Hunt denied bank account by Monzo source: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2023/07/08/jeremy-hunt-denied-bank-account-american-express-monzo/ *CONDAM - The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994 - UK created an entire industry out of this. A couple of colleagues attended a training session of some sort back in the day in Brussels or somewhere like that and one of the guys responsible for drafting the EU regulation said "we can't believe what the UK has done with what was supposed to be 2 sides of A4".

Random Youtube comments say its Stephen Nolan being the NI BBC presenter. He's 'on extended holiday' atm, and yesterday transferred his production company shares to a betting company.

OwlFancier posted:I mean we've talked recently about how much death Osborne is responsible for during his tenure in government, I really don't think it's too much. I would in fact take the position that the appropriate punishment could not be enacted within a human lifetime. I'm reminded of the scene in Babylon 5 where Morden asks Vir what he wants. Vir, who was in the main considered to be a jellyfish and far too nice to be in politics, replies that he wanted to live long enough to see Morden executed and his head placed on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations. This was shocking enough even before it later came out that the Centauri practice execution by vivisection and so Vir was basically saying "I want you to be tortured to death and I want to watch". I think this is the position a lot of people are in with Osborne and the Tories. They are not evil, but the Tories are unspeakable monsters. And while as per Nietzsche we must take care not to become monsters ourselves in fighting them, you can only gaze into the abyss for so long.

Radical hope is that this will somehow multiply to the point where on the eve of the general election Starmer just pulls a Walther pistol out of his suit pocket on live television and says "remember when I promised I'd never hurt you Wes?"
