Apparently someone is leaking Corbyn's PMQs to Cameron before he answers them. So Cameron's complete non-answers and unrelated personal attacks are with time to prepare for them.

TinTower posted:Only Jewish potential candidate for Labour NEC has been blocked from standing because Jim Murphy called her an anti-Semite. I'm pretty sure the Labour right have just decided that if they don't get to run the Labour Party then no-one does, and they're just going to sabotage the party from here on out.

He hasn't commented but I did find this gem. quote:Most significant was that we now know the identity of the next Republican nominee to be President of the United States. It will be Jeb Bush. It can only be Jeb Bush.

Coohoolin posted:It was the old people that hosed us then and it'll be the old people that gently caress us this time. The generational gap is quite infuriating. That a decision that will massively impact the future of young people in this country might go against them because Gladys and Wilfred saw a foreign on the bus and got perturbed. It's more infuriating that that's enough to get Gladys and Wilfred into the voting booth and not the people whose futures will be impacted. gently caress olds. gently caress kids. gently caress everyone.

Yorkshire Tea posted:But then what can you do? Every single fact indicates that immigration just doesn't affect wages and that jobs just don't get stolen, but there's this mad irrational perception that they do. The sad reality is if by some act of god you lose your job to a foreign worker that poo poo is your fault for being poo poo and not their fault for being here and not the government's fault for letting them in (I mean maybe it's the government's fault for being bad at education, but meh). But you can't persuade people that they're to blame for anything that's their own fault. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Backfire_effect

Pesmerga posted:Jeremy Clarkson just came out for remain. Cue Clarkson literally wants a United States of Europe. With regards to Gibraltar, would it be possible to work out a reverse Greenland deal where Gibraltar stays in the EU but we don't? Or would Spain be able to veto that. I know they kept threatening to make it difficult for an independent Scotland to join the EU because it was making them look bad for not giving their separatists a referendum but I don't know if that was hot air.

The loving Yanks literally gloating over Jo Cox getting shot proving whatever asinine point their making in their stupid loving baby argument they're having over there is making me sick to my core right now. Like, our politics is embarrassing as gently caress, but it's rare to see even the likes of Farage's mob jumping all over something like this before the body is cold to make a stupid loving point. Cunts.

There's a pretty big difference between idiots flooding idiot discussions about horrific events caused by idiot laws in an idiot country and idiots flooding normal people discussions about horrific events that have nothing do with the normal people laws in an idiot country.

Tesseraction posted:Being fair, considering America has seen 133 mass shootings this year alone, perhaps our single shooting with an improvised weapon isn't exactly a reason for the Americans to be smug? Also this, is something about the imbeciles gloating that the horrible thing not happening in their country one time out of hundreds somehow justifies them not dealing with the horrible thing.

LGD posted:The post wasn't about gun control, it was a brief aside about how and why people are frequently shitheads to one another online (costless schadenfreude and virtue signalling), and why this is a topic in particular upon which it would be unreasonable to expect perfect decorum and taste from others given past behavior. This was immediately followed up by people talking about how anything insensitive they or others might have said in the past is obviously different because their opinions are clearly correct, you can't talk to those foreigners because they're like literal animals (dogs in this case), and I, as a "yank oval office," should get out because I am obviously completely unqualified to comment on anything to do with UK politics/culture.

If it actually is him, surely that'll come up in the trial and the people blindly asserting is isn't will look silly? He doesn't seem like he's going to be shy about his motivations based on the name he's given the court. That said, there's no way we can say that's definitely him based on a blurry side profile shot, so it's all pure speculation at this point anyway.
