That would very much not the grown-up sensible thing to do. It's time for serious government.

The entire country could be better off by as much as two pence each if we simply cut public services in a way that will end up costing you hundreds of pounds a month and kill a bunch of disabled people.

Apparently Dave Rowntree from Blur has been selected as a Labour candidate for Westminster. Given the way he drunkenly bullied Nardwuar he should fit right in with the PLP.

I feel sorry for the person on 150k that does three times as much work as the person on 50k but only gets another 5 quid.

keep punching joe posted:Apparently Dave Rowntree from Blur has been selected as a Labour candidate for Westminster. Given the way he drunkenly bullied Nardwuar he should fit right in with the PLP. I feel like he's desperately failed at becoming a politician repeatedly over the last 25 years. Seem to remember him running for a seat in Westminster City Council 2 decades ago & losing. And I know he lost to Clive Lewis for the right to stand for Labour for the Norwich seat. And pretty sure Mid Sussex, the former seat of Nicholas Soames, isn't high up on the list of Labour targets. 2015 & 2017 were the only times Labour even managed 2nd place, it's normally the Liberals who finish runner-up. Although sadly Wikipedia informed me actually had a seat on Norfolk County Council for 4 years, so he's not a complete political loser. About the only political thing about him I know is that for a successful musicians he's surprisingly progressive on file sharing Also he technically didn't drunkenly bully Nardwuar, he was on coke. I'm for more MPs who admit to using drugs in the past, especially ones who have acknowledged it turned them into cunts. Presumably he asked for a safer Labour seat, they offered him Mid Sussex & said "there's no other way".

"It's clear Mr Speaker that I do in fact know my claret from my beaujolais, although the prime minister is incorrect when he says I'd like to think I'm Ronnie Kray. Ronnie Kray was a criminal, immoral man whereas I was a human rights barrister and my father was a toolmaker." *Instantly loses entire sahf Landon voting bloc*

Clyde Radcliffe posted:Fondly remembering the 90s when I could wander into any patch of woodland as a teen and score maybe a 5% chance of finding some abandoned copy of Razzle Readers' Wives Edition. This whole thing about teens in England the 90's wandering into forests to find porn I just find so weird. It is like the real world equivalent of random loot from a computer based RPG.

It does suggest the existence of a once-stable population of forest dwelling perverts who nonetheless infiltrate human society in order to acquire copies of Razzle. Perhaps this is what the unseelie court are up to these days. Or possibly the seelie court, not sure.

Ugh. My mum is having problems with her phone (Pokemon Go won't log-in for her) so she rang me during my work day, in near tears, to ask me to go down to hers tonight and fix it. This isn't an easy ask, as she's quite a way away. Now, usually I see her on a Friday any way, except this week I'm going to a funeral tomorrow so won't be going around. This is just more of the manipulative, dumb poo poo she always pulls and I hate it. I know I could just not go down, but I want to vent a little before I decide not too.
