Can't believe Jeremy Corbyn did this to her and made her an antisemite

The Perfect Element posted:People keep posting stuff about this saga and I have literally no idea who this person is or why I should care about her lovely opinions. Yes & no. But as very few things posted in this thread actually have much to do with the immortal science, I'd not really worry. Yes, there's something a little Tweetman about her, she's definitely a Twitter Character of the Day, but she's also a centrist who yelled about leftist anti-semitism & it turns out that she believes in a very clear anti-semitic conspiracy theory & that's quite funny. It's OK if you don't care. Every post doesn't have to be for you. Or me. It's fine.

Comrade Fakename posted:Again, you are crowing that Labour is more right wing, when you have repeatedly advocated for left-wingers to leave the party. This is the inevitable consequence of that. The Labour Party you have over and over again stated you want is Oops All Luke Akehursts. I hate to bring up the Labourism argument again, we don’t have to go over the whole thing, but you’re laughing that a lot of people did what you wanted them to do. Please stop doing that. No friend, the Labour Party that I want is a party that can only be described in the past tense for it has withered and died. I can only conclude you haven't actually engaged with a single anti-Labour argument if you think the desired result is right wing Labour. The desired result is proving that a centre-left party cannot survive when it holds nothing but contempt for ordinary working people. It is funny that there are self-described socialists who haven't accepted reality yet is all and figure that the Labour Party is anything but a roadblock to socialism is all. Well, also hideously depressing but the laughter helps forget that part; Weekend At Bernie's The Political Party

The Question IRL posted:Speaking of Rowling, I discovered her latest example of awfulness. IMO the Irish shouldn't have their own national team if they are under the purview of the British. Outrageous. It's easily explained by the fact that Joanne wrote an awful lot of things without considering any possible consequences of them. Because she's deeply uninterested in anything but trans people I assume

Youtube ads really suck, but if you want a real treat try watching stuff on the Chinese site Youku where they let you skip the ads if you just pay 10 Yuan. Unsure if that's a one off fee but the way it reads is you need to pay every time, £1.30, to skip the Chinese Coca-Cola ads

Jeherrin posted:You mean... apart from the whole 'Lynch and Dempsey should run the country' thing that happened after they were on the television when the first wave of strikes kicked off? Call me old fashioned but I think calling the assistant general secretary of a trade union with under 82,000 members a "position of power" is uhhhhhhh stretching the phrase a little. He's not the Foreign Secretary, what Eddie Dempsey thinks about foreign affairs is Eddie Dempsey's business. Anything else is obfuscation aimed at discrediting the strikes. And anyone doing that can get hosed

bessantj posted:Oh academic books I get being expensive, but this is a half arsed crime fiction book by the author of Harry Potter. The fact that it's over 1,000 pages should mean a deep discount. Publishers put out hardbacks early, have the jacket price at £20-25 & then they are sold by shops at usually £10-15 with a big fat £10 off sticker which makes you think you're getting a bargain so you better buy it! Source: me, I buy my mam the new Ian Rankin novel every year for her birthday as they usually come out about a month before her birthday and I've never paid listed price for them, even when it came signed. It's a stupid marketing trick but it must work. This isn't a recent development, and very few people actually buy the thing at £25.

Paranoid Peanut posted:thread, I am not from the UK, so how should i feel about her? on a scale of boris to rubbish - where to place?? Depends what you care about? I mean, if you're a rich corporate raider type then it's probably about to be a good time to "invest" in Britain, ie to make off with the family silver. If you have any empathy it is bad, but the saving grace of Boris was he was spectacularly lazy. A total oval office, but if he was really motivated he could've done worse. Well, Truss is motivated to do worse. Also Britain is just generally in a shitter place than it was in 2019 so things are going to get a lot worse regardless of which Tory shite is PM.

Or that the lib dems would do their usual poison the well tactics by saying they're in second place and refuse to grasp at the reins in favour of being as poo poo as possible. No, because Labour won't go into coalition with the SNP & don't want another referendum. https://twitter.com/EuanYours/status/1567074641700593666?s=20&t=Wuc79iJJzaompeRnlxYoyQ

We hate them too! Please like us! Please don't say in the newspaper that I like the SNP!"

I fall on the "Starmer will make any deals to cling to power" side, but it's certainly not implausible that he gets high on his own Hubris. About ¼ of the PLP, people like Pat McFudden, are Scots in Westminster seats, the loathing is deep

keep punching joe posted:I remember when the pound was so strong vs the dollar that you could buy CDs on import and still pay less than getting the UK release. God that ruled. When you could get $2 to £1. Only time I ever imported a video game was around that time, one of the NCAA Football games for Gamecube. Yeah, casuals imported boring JRPGs they couldn't even read any text in, cool dudes imported a game that was basically the previous year's Madden but with an extra recruiting mini-game added in.
