Zalakwe posted:I wonder if this result will embolden the left within Labour and if so embolden them to do what exactly. Nah, if the left of Labour split now they'd all get ChUK'd out of their seats at the next election. Smart move is to do it after the election. Might even be able to become the Opposition if Labour win silly amounts of seats and crush the Tories into double figures.

Mebh posted:I mean, most of us were younger and didn't have the experience to do anything but believe that they were offering good things, so you vote for the good things! Hindsight being 20/20 and all it's easy to say they were obviously poo poo. There was a definite cohort of wise posters at the time saying "look at the Orange Book ffs" but with the hubris of youth we all ignored them.

big scary monsters posted:We're like a decade from the Poles complaining about all those damned Brits coming over there, taking their jobs, opening their weird fish and chip shops, and not even learning the language. As if any Brits actually know how to run a decent chip shop, the best two local to me are Chinese- and Portuguese-operated.

Lol Jeremy oval office has hosed Labour's plans by abolishing non-dom status and spending the money on tax cuts instead of the NHS. Reeves is going to have to find a new money tree

BalloonFish posted:Remember when Corbyn suggested adding more bank holidays to the calendar to bring us up to something like the European norm? I'm pretty sure the suggested dates included one to mark the passing of the Slave Trade Act in March and one for Trafalgar Day in October, which should be very 'gammon friendly'. But of course it was all about how Labour didn't want people to work and You Can't Just Give People Time Off Work Jeremy and all that other poo poo. I thought the idea was to give everyone all the Patron Saints days off regardless of where in the UK you are. Does leave far too many in the Spring though what with Easter and everything.

Guavanaut posted:No it's going to be the echr referendum because things are only allowed to get worse. That seems more likely. But Lord Cameron returning after eight years of shite and saying "see, I told you all it was a bad idea, but I'm here now to take us back to the glory days of the 2012 Olympics." would be pretty funny when Labour are still in full "we won't even think about rejoining, honest" mode.

Guavanaut posted:To paraphrase the old saying, it's better to call them out and have them think you're incapable than attempt it and end up proving it (and have to call them everywhere) (and have loads of shitey water everywhere). Plumbing's just water lego. As long as you've got a bucket and a towel handy there's a limited amount of water that will come pissing out of there (assuming you're not simultaneously filling the system for some reason, make sure your boiler doesn't do that automatically or anything) so buy a part, grab an adjustable spanner and

serious gaylord posted:I'll do pretty much anything around the house but plumbing is one thing I dont touch because you can think what you've done is absolutely fine and then a few years later your ceiling caves in because its been leaking slowly the entire time. I'm wary of anything hidden away (although I've just installed a new toilet that involves some boxed in pipework) but a radiator valve is pretty visible. If it starts leaking slowly... well, it looks like how it already does.

Private Speech posted:Yeah but the reason the rates are so (relatively) low compared to other forms of consumer debt is that the underlying house security will stay or grow in value. otoh if houses were shittier investment opportunities they'd be cheaper, and then more people could reasonably buy them to, you know, live in, instead of leveraging themselves to the balls in mortgages that they'll work their whole lives to pay off or renting forever and having nothing at the end of it. Maybe, idk.
