pathetic little tramp posted:What I don't get, you have 331 seats, a simple majority. You're in good shape. Why get greedy and call a GE? I mean, I know let's really gently caress up Labour, but is there any benefit to having a bigger majority? Needed a bigger majority to get hardcore crazy and start really pushing radical policy.

Cao Ni Ma posted:Its beyond hilarious that a few weeks ago the media was calling May a political genius for calling the snap elections Seemed like a good idea at the time. Speaking of, how is it that May isn't already ousted? Is she going to hang on through this mess?

pathetic little tramp posted:So is May's bungled election going to actually re-ignite the Troubles? Adams isn't going to start digging up the semtex over it, but he certainly isn't happy about the DUP being part of any governing coalition. I'd read it as a shot across the bow more than anything.

Zikan posted:https://twitter.com/mhairihunter/status/877099859941224448 I was under the impression that Brexit would actually save the UK scads of money and that hardened English negotiators would roll right over their flabby Brussels counterparts. How could reality be so far off from Brexiteer propaganda???

Jazerus posted:what about industries and positions in general substantially above minimum wage? Here in the states we have "prevailing wages" for construction projects that state the minimum that workers of "x" experience must be paid while on a project. By law the wage rates are posted at the jobsite so everyone knows if they're getting screwed. Probably a good starting point.
