Regarde Aduck posted:That she's seen as 'angry black women' isn't the problem. Well it is for some but I think the main issue is she seems like a terrible speaker. The few times I've seen her in a debate she gets verbally dominated. Even when I agree with what she's saying, the way she puts her points across in interviews or in debates makes my toes curl. So much eye rolling and finger wagging. She is the Ann Widdecombe of the left.

jabby posted:So with the DUP reduced to 28 seats and that Traditional Voice guy with one, they still fall a seat short of launching a petition of concern. There is one independent unionist (Claire Sugden) but she is 30 years old and in favour of gay marriage. She has not been shy about calling out the DUP on their deceit and sleaze. The TUV exists to be a thorn in the side of the DUP much like UKIP is to the tories in England so I wouldn't bet on Jim Allister making life easy for them

jBrereton posted:Hopefully when direct rule happens HMG just tells everyone to gently caress off and gives NI the same abortion/gay rights laws as England. I don't think that'd be a good idea. There was widespread rioting for several weeks here in 2012 because the days on which the flag is flown at Belfast City Hall was brought into line with the rest of the UK. There were protests and counter protests over a gay wedding cake on a regular basis for several years.

Something I am curious about is why so many people here pronounce Stormont as Stormount. I even heard MLAs calling it that. I haven't asked anyone in case it is yet another tradiyshun I am ignorant of.Wheat Loaf posted:I've twice (once on my way out of a job interview and the second time in Manchester, of all places) had people ask me if I was variously American or Canadian or if I'd lived there because of my accent and that's even more confusing. I don't get it. I got this all the time when I lived in Scotland.

OwlFancier posted:I really want to believe that Sinn Féin has a shop where you can buy genuine certificate of authenticity certified chunks of royal skull in a nice plastic presentation box. They do have an online cyber-shop but they have taken down all the really tacky ornaments they used to sell on it.  It used to be like an extremely dark St Patrick's day stall.

namesake posted:Back to pensions for a minute: I wonder if their gradually removal combined with social care collapsing and houseprices not will force 50 year olds to move back to their 80 year old parents house because neither will be able to live otherwise. I think at some we will need an honest discussion about liberalising suicide tbh.
