just lol at this http://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/feb/03/dwp-post-amazon-chief-disgusting-margaret-hodge quote:The Labour MP and tax campaigner Margaret Hodge has described as “disgusting” a plan to give an executive of Amazon, one of the companies at the centre of an intensifying row over taxes, a directorship at the Department of Work and Pensions.

Tesseraction posted:I just see the problem ultimately being that the Tories are trying to rules lawyer us into the ground and it means that by ruining our lives in small imperceptible shifts they get away with it. I'd almost rather they rip the plaster off so we can see how lovely they are, like when they tried to do tax credit cuts, rather than the method they currently employ such as changing the rules for disability living allowance which is starving the disabled. full eugenics now could turn out to be something of a vote winner

It's not an issue for if Corbyn becomes PM, the Trident renewal vote is happening in March (or possibly June if Cameron pushes it back). It's not a pie in the sky issue, it's an issue for today. the latest news is he's having the vote after the EU referendum

There was a fairly senior tory who was pretty scathing about Hunt because they'd had a contract agreed with everyone before he became health secretary and he hosed it all up

Mister Adequate posted:Whilst there are problems with saying someone is "acting white" or whatever, if someone is acting in a manner consistent with enforcing/supporting white privilege, it's probably okay to call them out on it, even if you yourself are white? Like it might not be the classiest way of doing so and, yes, it's probably better left for the community in question to make the criticism anyway, people ITT act like she is Nick Griffin IRL, not someone who made a good point in a possibly unwise way. you use far too many commas

But it was a mistake that has hopefully been learned from, perhaps it can act as a parable against the tendency to jump on somebody's previous poorly chosen words and act as though it invalidates everything else they ever say. i don't really care but said poster was getting outraged and i felt like bringing it up
