I find open mockery works best. Conservatism should be bullied. Appeals to someone's better nature rarely works, bullying works.

Scotgoons, what does this "women what wheesht" phrase mean. I know it's a ScoTERF phrase but I didn't read enough of The Broons But Horrible to understand the meaning.

It means they won't be quiet about the Trans people. Middle class headcases being middle class headcases.

What an incredibly stupid move.

quote:

“we must work together to ensure that everyone is connected, and can get their TV and radio via the internet. This isn’t something to resist. A fully connected UK has very significant benefits for society and our economy. It would unleash huge opportunities for innovation”.

Love to design a service based on the assumption that we will have 100% internet coverage, after the last time anything even remotely like that was offered it was compared to nationalising sausages.

Eh. They say they still expect terrestrial TV to continue 'into the 2030s'. So realistically, there'll be an entirely new board, government and entire bloody social situation by then. This is basically meaningless other than a signifier of the overall direction of travel for broadcast media.

I work in the TV adjacent industry and this is not news. Most linear TV watching (you tune to a channel and watch a series of programmes that come on at set times) is already Boomers. Younger people mostly watch Netflix, iPlayer - or like Tictoc. Which already require the internet. We are close to it being a requirement for everyone already, over the like 20 year timeframe being talked about here and once the Boomers are dead it's fairly safe to assume everyone will already actually have to have it just like say electricity.

Very optimistic to believe there will be a world left when the boomers are dead.

Update: This story has been updated to remove an interview with an individual whose travel plans are unlikely to be affected by the strikes.

Apparently, Romanian police needed evidence that Tate was in Romania before they could arrest him, and they figured out he was because in the video response he posted to Greta saying he had a tiny dick he had a Pizza box from a local Pizzeria.

It's just that the publicist excuse of "there's no such thing as bad publicity" is not true especially when you're not media-brained.

at least the democrats have the decency to conduct a song and dance about how they wanted to do something but just couldn't manage to pull it off

i can't imagine the deranged party which would just straight up tell you they're not going to fix the problem

It's very simple. The reason that Labour are doing well is that the press aren't monstering them like they have for every Labour leader since Blair. This isn't for you, the filthy reality inhabiter. This is for the blood drenched psychopaths who run the media and are so convinced by their own bullshit that the very idea of public spending sends them into fits of convulsions. So Labour stays in the lane where they both publicly state they are angry about energy prices, low wages and the crumbling NHS but also very publicly come out against doing anything about it. Everything needs to change but we're not going to do anything about it, which is the only acceptable answer to our ruling class.
