Pistol_Pete posted:Well, the conservative press are very conspicuously failing to follow Cameron's line that he's achieved an excellent result in the EU negotiations and now we should all vote to stay in, thank you very much. Well the conservative press are pretty much on the leave side and Cameron's big renegotiation hasn't achieved anything "meaningful" so the grassroots is mad, the backbench is mad and the press is mad. Living in a Tory area there's a bit of feeling that Cameron mostly offered the referendum because no other mainstream party would, and that he never has no interest in leaving or campaigning for brexit to begin with. Which I mean it's true but it was obvious in May also so it's not like it's a huge trick. Upside is that this is potentially a good time for corbyn to work on stability seeing as the Tories are set to implode for a while.

Assange is a oval office is the thing. He's a dumbass for getting himself into this position what with being hated by America, but even if he weren't maybe he shouldn't be engaging in behaviour leading to really plausible accusations of rape????

big scary monsters posted:I don't really feel like you can overspend on the NHS, it can only be underfunded. It's really hard to think of a more important British national organisation. Given a choice between the government falling and the NHS collapsing I don't think many people would choose the latter. I mean, you can if your overspending means that you're underspending on services that could reduce the demand on the nhs, such as adequate social care provision for the vulnerable. Luckily the conservatives are doubling down by underspending on both.

Pissflaps posted:It's an elegant response to the mental contortions some of you get in to to justify the stuff that gobshite comes out with. The mask slips, as the guy willing to contort any statement made by corbyn into the most negative meaning possible accused others of the opposite. You've been asked before about who you would like to see as leader, to which you reply "anybody else". So I've got an alternative that you should be able to answer. The vote for Labour leader had a public element to it, which of the candidates did you, pissflaps, vote for?

people have the right to make unwise choices, vote with your conscience.Guavanaut posted:As long as it didn't do anything really stupid like leave the ECHR as well, I don't see the human rights side changing. The Tories really really want to do this, and are backed up by the press who scream about it every time we can't deport a criminal because of it, or when prisoner votes raises its head. E: OwlFancier posted:Also, if you recognize that someone is hurting themselves but don't understand that they are, that does not exculpate you from your obligation to stop them. There is a distinction between respecting someone's informed choice and recognising that they don't really have the facility to choose.

For the record, the nurses (and ahps) pay scale is here. https://www.rcn.org.uk/employment-and-pay/nhs-pay-scales-2015-16 For the record band 3 and 4 is healthcare assistants and support workers, registered nurses start at 5, 7 is a ward sister, 8 is management. Every year you go up a point in your band, when you reach the top of a band you get 1% a year until you get a new banding through a job interview.

Tesseraction posted:Well I figure the nurses are also doing it because they're aware it's a hosed up lovely contract and they're looking out for their comrades. It's poo poo, it's dangerous, the 7 day nhs mostly exists. Ultimately I expect there'd be even more public support if the nurses ever took strike action because there's a misconception, even among some of my nursing colleagues, that doctors all earn tons to begin with.

Worth noting that the abolition of the bursaries is the second step in creating a nurse recruitment crisis, the first step already happened and it was the inexplicable decision to require all nurse trainees to complete a three year degree, thus ensuring that the future generation of nurses gets less practical patient contact but can write essays really well.

Guavanaut posted:Is the Supreme Court a fetishisation of US politics? I thought it was more to bring the UK in line with a lot of places in Europe like France and the Netherlands and Portugal that all have their own Supreme Court (or courts) for jurisprudence, rather than continuing the strange mixture of powers where the upper house of the legislature is also the final court of the judiciary. I'd hope Quebec could opt out, being Canadian and all.
