it makes me sad that america has no weird tankie politicians there it seems like the dems are the sensible party and the gop are the wacko one while here it's the opposite and you have labour people saying that mao was good or that the financial crisis was also good because of accelerationism

rudatron posted:So Corbyn or not, it seems that Brexit hasn't had an 'even' effect of the UK political landscape - it's boosted the conservatives significantly while cutting labor up. That's totally nuts. theres basically no way that the west doesn't immediately spiral into full fascism now once global warming causes a few more refugee crises right?

i don't know if integration actually matters. most of the people who support anti-immigrant parties live in almost entirely white towns, the only way they know about immigrants is through the media. most of these people are just straight up ethnic nationalists. only ethnic british people are british, and only british people get to use our public services/work here/live here at all

Pierson posted:when I was in school they assigned us into groups ('houses') named after saints and we got points throughout the year which we traded in for ?????????? they're some vestigial aspect of boarding schools, where the houses were literal buildings where students lived, iirc ours were based on what form you were in in year 7 and 8 so i guess they at least gave you some sense of collective identity with your classmates. we got merits which were little stickers you would put in your planner and if you got 100 in a year you'd get a badge, and if your house got the most, they'd put your house colour ribbons on the house trophy

jBrereton posted:Yes. To get this into perspective, the tories had a 20 point lead 2 months ago, had taken heretofore unthinkable Labour seats in the northwest of England, and more or less wiped Labour out in local government elections just over a month ago, while the general election campaign was going on. It was set to be a bloodbath. oh im from the uk i know this i'm just amazed

Jeb! Repetition posted:Because the brits pay a tax on TV, most of their channels don't have commercials. only bbc ones don't we have like 100 freeview channels and probably like 10 are bbc (a lot of those 100 are like +1 channels or weird garbage that no-one watches though) basically all of the rest have adverts. but less than americans iirc, an average of 7 minutes an hour
