Noxville posted:I absolutely hate broccoli, and cauliflower. All brassicas so probably the same genetic thing that makes me loathe sprouts. Root vegetables are definitely my thing, carrots, parsnips, beetroot are all aces. I loathe cauliflower and sprouts, but broccoli is OK for me. I'm sure that genetic thing is bullshit someone made up so they wouldn't have to feel bad about not eating their veggies.

^^^ No. Both votes same party only works for parties that are not likely to win constituency seats in the region. The SNP are loving idiots who don't understand this. If you want a majority for independence, vote SNP constituency and Green on the list. Your only other pro-indy choice is Alba, which is run by rapist fascist Alex Salmond and is mostly inhabited by people kicked out of the SNP for being too bigoted. sebzilla posted:If I were a ballot counter I'd enjoy the knob votes but I suppose they're not for everyone As I have to explain every loving time: the candidates never see your oh-so-witty "political statement". The only person who does is a low paid council worker, usually female, who gets a dick waved in front of them at 2am on a work night. Just don't.

nurmie posted:Also, it'd be nice if all the vote results would bother including "didn't vote" as a voter category. I think that'd be quite eye-opening for quite a few people They do, although not explicitly. 100-turnout is the "Didn't Vote" category. Also in Scotland voters were advised to turn in a blank ballot if they didn't want to vote on either constituency or list. As a result the number of excluded ballots has multiplied; normally you'd get maybe 20-30 per constituency, this time we're getting 100-200.

Reveilled posted:I do wonder how 2017 would have gone with him at the helm. Maybe it would have made no difference, but I feel McDonnell projects more "authority" than Corbyn did, maybe that could have pushed us over the line. Harder to sing his name to Seven Nation Army though, so, swings and roundabouts. "Ohhh, Big John McDonnell!"

goddamnedtwisto posted:It is a bit strange that people are pulling out the demographics are destiny argument in reaction to the Tories making moves that skew the (voting) demographic even more acutely in their favour. Not really? The start point of the discussion was that the Tories are having to skew the voting demographic by removing voters because they can't gain new ones.

radmonger posted:If you have a national ID service, you simply don’t need the electoral register, so that becomes a pointless and obvious waste. The electoral register is used for more things than determining who can vote. It's an important tool for the court system, where it's used to make sure two people with the same name aren't confused and also to select jurors.

Azza Bamboo posted:Can someone explain to me why Scotland isn't just going for a referendum and a UDI? It's a bit of both. The SNP will always garner support from cries to throw off the Hated English Yoke TM, but there are also international considerations. They want - and in fact need - to rejoin Scotland to the EU, but Spain will veto that if Scotland simply declares independence because they have a similar movement in Catalonia. However, the backbone of the Spanish position is that they would respect the result of a referendum if one was held; they just never intend to let the Catalans have one. The complications creep in with Brexit. With Scotland being dragged out of the EU against its will, a second Indyref is as much an attempt to join a union of nations as it is an attempt to leave one. So Spain might accept the result of a wildcat referendum because technically the SNP wants to be in a political union with Spain. However, I don't think Spain would accept a UDI unless the Tories tried to shut down Holyrood. And maybe not even then.

Real Cool Catfish posted:https://mobile.twitter.com/ImIncorrigible/status/1394419207354429445 Interesting to see what? They're Tories, and post-purge Tories at that. They will vote with the party line over the livelihoods and even the lives of their constituents exactly 100% of the time. And they will not suffer for it, because they know Tory voters will vote for them 100% of the time even as they're being murdered.

a pipe smoking dog posted:I agree but it's also more self reflection than I would have expected from a tory Cummings isn't a Tory, he's a mercenary. Possibly - probably? - working for Putin; he spent several years in Moscow and refuses to discuss what he did there. The "who do we not save?" question doesn't bother me, to be honest. People were always going to die and the question of where our efforts were going to be channelled needed to be asked no matter who was in charge. It's the answer to the question that the Tories must be held accountable for, not the question itself.

feedmegin posted:You say that, this actually came up when my ex wife remarried to a Catholic and I had to ask my dad if I'd been baptised. I hadn't so apparently our heathen rear end marriage didn't count and all was cushty with the Lord. Where's the contradiction here? Catholics are old fashioned enough to believe that only baptised people can get married. They'd be super pissed if you tried marrying a Catholic on that basis. But on the other hand, they wouldn't care about your previous marriage on the same basis. If you were baptised, then your marriage ended in divorce; as you weren't, it ended in annulment. Guavanaut posted:lol at Boris Johnson having a Catholic ceremony when Charlie couldn't even get a CofE one. To be fair, the rules probably apply more strictly to you when your mother is the Pope.

Guavanaut posted:That's interesting too, because a lot of the early Methodists were massive prison reformers, and the whole Sheep and Goats speech is supposed to be central to that idea. What you need to understand about "Christians" who appear to ignore the actual teachings of Christ is that they start from a position of believing they are automatically righteous because they follow Jesus. The fact that to actually follow Jesus involves listening to and acting on what he had to say doesn't occur to them. So when Jesus says the righteous proceed to eternal life, that means them because they put their coin into the slot.
