Top door knocking advice for people who'd like to campaign for Labour but don't like talking to strangers: learn how to do the clipboard - you basically just tell everyone which doors to knock and track what the outcomes were but every canvassing group needs someone who can manage the paperwork.

I will begrudgingly consider Prince Harry to be exactly 0.5% less of a waste of space if he just windmills into Fleet Street and fucks their poo poo up.

Edit: lol at this brand engagement that happened to me on twitter just now, good effort at trying to pick a first name out of the mayhem that is my handle & display name but I can confirm that I am not Mr George Goblin Esquire, unfortunately :v:

... that sounds like a very specific bug that was around some years back.

Clean reinstall is the only option if you hit that one.

Pish. You can fix that with some fancy command line typing (there's a guide somewhere on Microsoft's website) and feel like a proper hacker out of a film or something :v:

I had to sign for a letter this morning and the only thing in the envelope was a �25 google play gift card. I have absolutely no idea where it's come from, the address is a printed sticker with no name on it and the only thing that stands out is that the address says "Newcastle Upon Tyne, Durham" for some reason. I am genuinely baffled and can't think of any reason why someone would send this completely anonymously :confuoot:

Has anyone seen any promotions or things you can sign up for that give a google play voucher? The only thing I can even guess at is that I renewed my contract with Vodafone a week or two ago but I don't remember them saying anything about giving me a reward for that and if it was them the address would have been right at least.

You implied you would not be voting Labour due to the meanness. That leaves it with either Tories or Lib Dems. Both right wing parties.

No, you don't understand - they said they were "anti-labour" so they're obviously still very left wing and an all round nice person, they just won't vote for Labour until they replace the leader with one of those sensible, electable types who won't be left wing. Iraq wars and immigration mugs are just the price of electability and we all know the only way to end austerity is to elect someone who promises to do austerity because they think it's a solid votewinner with a working class they've never met. Morningwoodpecker is very smart :v:

There's no madness son. The NHS is currently underfunded, if it became the IHS then it would become massively overused.

Isn't the restriction of NHS services to only those citizens of strong britane :britain:

a fairly recent development? Like, before one of the recent tory oval office governments anyone from anywhere could rock up and be treated?

Also, the key word you used is "underfunded" - imagine if we funded it properly?

Also also, gently caress off with this britain first horseshit you oval office :v:

There's a reason we've been demolishing that stuff. Public funds simply weren't enough to make them... satisfactory.

I know absolutely loving nothing about the state of council housing in London in 1983 or at any other point in human history and yet I still feel confident enough to answer this: Get to absolute gently caress mate. The only reason stuff in this country ever gets privatised is "more money for cunts" and I'd bet that's what happened here too :v:

Don't come in here with vague statements about human nature unless you are willing to back them up, and certainly not whilst going "oh the barbarism " whilst trying to do as little as possible to change anything.

As for that big post by Exioce, is there a word for the sort of outlook they display throughout it? I mean the total lack of curiosity about why things are the way they are, coupled with a firm belief that any attempt to change it would be wrong, dangerous and impractical. I see it all the time when people write articles saying: "Hey, 'x' situation could be improved, why don't we make it better?" and the comments below the line talk exactly like Exioce does.

Radical centrism? :v:

It�s funny how anything said in this thread that goes against the consensus is suddenly FBPE, when this is about Labour getting dragged into an election it claimed it wanted and has been ready for since 2017 in a way that every other party can start all campaigning with �and Labour didn�t even want this election anyway�.

"I am absolutely furious because the thread refuses to accept that Joremy Crombyn is poo poo" is basically your loving gimmick at this point mate :v:
