this is great, FYI Edinburgh people

One of the really, really toxic elements of stale 2-party politics is the notion that parties "own" voters.

It's on full display here.

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

hi! I'm here! would sometime over the weekend work? thank you!

Dale Vince’s latest bright idea — giving even more subsidies to oil and gas giants and "optimising" production — is about as sensible as his plan to mass produce gas from grass.
Let's discuss!

If I'd arrived in Whitby on the Demeter, I'd be more circumspect about demanding they "stop the boats."

Better than the 1977 120A I had

Love it!

my most Gen X opinion is it's an honour to be on earth at the same time as Kristen Hersh, Laetitia Sadier, John Darnielle & Kim Deal

big lad in front of me at the Kristen Hersh gig has a tshirt on that says THE TALLEST MAN IN THE WORLD which isn't true but I sort of admire it

Oh it's a joy!

yep, for sure! and it still blows my mind that they talked to him in the 80s about a succession plan

amazing that David Attenborough has put out a film about the world's seas on his 99th birthday, including footage from Scotland's beautiful inshore, all very much worthy of @emmaroddicksnp.bsky.social's motion to Parliament and comment from @bluemarinef.bsky.social news.stv.tv/scotland/sir...

The Minister for National Security here, bragging that he has secured support at the US President’s residence for bombing food and aid deports. This comes after their army was caught executing 15 aid workers at point blank range, in cold blood.

Let me just say that Mridul Wadhwa is a bona fide heroine and an inspiration and the attacks on her were some of the most upsetting and enraging I've seen. If this country had one shred of decency it would honour her, not attempt to drive her out of public life. Fuck Britain.

It's classic British bigotry - you're not allowed to fight back against the suffering they inflict if they're doing it whilst using polite middle-class accents and long words.

That would be very impolite. Sit quietly and take your beatings as we talk about just how reasonable this all is.

qué pasa?

What a stint. The party changed for the better in so many ways thanks to his work.

Headline has changed. Perhaps someone pointed out that other "protest groups" try to burn down asylum seekers' homes. Still no real sense of context in the article though.

It’s understandable that lots of people fell for the Woke free speech gender whatever drivel. It was everywhere people looked, often all they ever heard. Nonetheless, if you fell for any bit of it, you now need to reflect on how you were taken in and the uses that your credulity are being put to.

Of course the BBC piece on JSO makes as little reference as possible to accelerating climate breakdown www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
