  1. I just don’t give a fuck about the whole Churchill thing. Did a job when was needed. Bit of a cunt the rest of the time. Now, back to the Cunt Tories.
  2. I mean, also look at the governments there for the longest time.
  3. Exactly what a racist might pretend to say.
  4. The more I think about it, the more I think we overthink it. If you have a good leader, who is presentable and slick, I think you could probably convince a large section of a lot of things. I think if you bring 97 Tony Blair back, he'd stride into office at a pace. I'm not entirely convinced he wouldn't win another election now. Even after everything. Life for most in the UK was pretty decent from 1997 to 2007.
  5. I dunno. I'm open to that being true, I just don't really see any evidence to think that. I'm not being deliberately argumentative, I just don't see that. My hunch tells me it might by the only way of winning an election.
  6. Oh. Yeah, I guess. But they're all still in power. They all still get way more votes than the others. Rejected might be a bit strong, like. It's probably a bit early to consider central parties dead, ya know?
  7. Rejected in what way. Most elected governments are either central or centre left/right.
  8. I think they would have buckled, but even then I'd sooner have had a legitimately voted for agenda than what we got. Either way, my point was we got a shit choice. I voted for it, of course, but I'm not surprised it didn't pass. Not that the 'strength' of FPTP resulting in weak governments or coalitions. Fucking state we're in.
  9. Should have told them no and to enjoy minority government and getting nothing done.
  10. Yes, quite a few of us have been saying it for a really long time. Shame the option on offer in the referendum was such a shit half-way house.
  11. I think there is space for a third party. We have one, just nobody wants to vote for them but the electorate is wrong.
  12. Oh, I agree. I’ve not got a problem with rehabilitation over prison. I’m just saying that ‘9/10 just some mandated rehab’ isn’t going to deter people from going. Certainly not as much as ‘once you leave you can never come back’ would. I wonder Ders about the efficacy of the rehabilitation, too. 800 former ISIS fighters and supporters coming back and living here isn’t ideal.
  13. Hardly a deterrent, is it. What a horrible situation.
  14. Apparently if you save up the legs you can swap them for more food. How many does a leg buy? Haha. I’m done.
  15. I go googley eyed over them. I stumped up for a couple of bags. I like them in my belly... not out. Howzatt for puns?
