Purple Prince posted:Who else thinks the result is likely to be a comically hung parliament with a slight swing to Labour? I don’t know if that’s better or worse than the current situation because it splits parliament between up to 3 parties (lib dem / Snp / Labour) and that’s going to make a coherent policy position hard to come by.

Seeing a lot of "I'm voting lib dem because they are the party of remain!!!" on twitter which is pretty disheartening. All that's going to result in is a lot of lib dem candidates killing lab chances of beating the tories, just so they can come in 2nd place.

Surprise T Rex posted:"You say no billionaires, Jemery but you yourself have up to 3 millian poonds!" Sanders did a pretty poor job of messaging this himself by talking about "millionaires and billionaires" through 2017, until it became obvious he was himself a millionaire and it was edited to "billionaires". Still love you senpai Bernie. This is where we need a new Carl Sagan to explain large numbers to people. Definitely not NDT

Surprise T Rex posted:"You say no billionaires, Jemery but you yourself have up to 3 millian poonds!" I looked into this, his "£3 million" is a net worth estimated by some magazine for rich tossers that includes his entire pension pot (£1.6 million) plus some handwaving about salary figures. Check it out for yourself, it's a load of shite. By comparison as well, the same site lists Jacob Rees-Mogg as worth over £100 million, including a single house that is worth twice as much money as Corbyn has made in his entire life.

I've never been chased out of UKMT, and in fact i don't know who you are if you've got archives you can look back through my post history and find the entire conversation i was alluding to if you want. said holocaust denier justified himself as "challenging tankies on their bullshit", which, you know, is a hell of an excuse for insisting the nazis didn't gas people in vans does tintower still post in here? i know a lot of mileage was gotten out of that coconut thing

There was a good graphic doing the rounds showing the difference between a million and a billion in piles of cash notes, but I can't remember where I saw it - if anyone else does it could be a good addition to the list of resources that someone is definitely compiling by now, right? (I'd volunteer but don't get much time at the PC atm)
