AV was a different kettle of fish. Garbage turnout and masses of undecideds in polling. I don’t think anyone ever thought it was nailed on even if technically AV was ahead in some polls. Point stands though.
He’s using those words to defend not giving benefits to the parents of a third child though. It’s just double speak: “it’s not about handouts is about a social safety net”. By playing into the framing of social safety nets as handouts he just defends the status quo. Definitely no evidence he really gets it.
Why reference a fable at all if you’re going to totally ignore it’s message?
The tories have been the same arrogant, entitled breed the whole time. Labour have still lost to them repeatedly so it seems weird to chalk it up to luck this time.
Best I’ve seen so far is the independent and, while they add some sensible context, even they are quoting sunak as if he’s speaking in good faith.
It pisses me off that this getting coverage when it contains no actual new information and is so obviously a conservative communications strategy.
Rishi is not accepting the rejection of his ideas at all. He’s conjuring the spectre of hung parliament as a rallying cry to disaffected tory voters. Maria Caulfield quote about the differences between local and govt elections really hammers this home and every media outfit is blithely repeating it all like they’re tory sock puppets.
In context, “overtones” is a pretty decent autocorrect for Overton here.
Yeah way too literal to be emtertaining. I guess if your reaction to the mayoral campaign is disaffected “both sides” BS (though no well informed person holds that view) then it would work shrugs. I’m sure as shit not reading the article because if their headline writing is that lazy I doubt there’s anything of value beyond it.
I expect the great leap forward in LLMs and AI art to dramatically change this at some point. They can already write pretty interesting plot with OK prompting, surely only a matter of time before someone is able to wrap that in a game.
OK, so you don’t actually disagree with either the community opposition or any potential judicial opinion blocking the measures (provided the basis is in applicable law). Your initial comment reads a little differently.
OK dude. But hilarious sarcasm aside, if you don’t think these actions should be opposed do you think any manifesto item of an elected official should be given a pass?
If saving actual lives isn’t enough for you to oppose a “democratic” agenda I wonder where you would draw the line.
We all just read an article about it, so this is obviously the most impactful and public place these people could have possibly gone to protest…
Shut up and dribble amiright
Their poll lead has been bleeding to labour for 3 years. There probably is a fringe of racists that jumped ship because of him, but it’s got to be marginal. Given the votes are going to labour it’s hard to pin it on broader culture war BS like the trans issue either.
Honestly I wonder if it’s economics. As COL has bitten people are more fearful than optimistic about independence. But also faith returning to labour as a “safe pair of hands” post Corbyn?
Slow your roll 'muricans. I got off a plane in Massachusetts and now I have to order my breakfast sandwich on whatever the fuck a bulkie is instead.
I’ve always thought this would be the best option for essential services. Then it’s there as a service provider of last resort in case a private provider fails. And if the private sector can indeed provide the service more efficiently even after paying it’s shareholders, great, have at it in competition with the state offering. We even have this in places (see NS&I).
No no. He started with a balanced budget that then blew up. He did cut the deficit before resigning but it was still large.
To be fair, far too much credit and blame is assigned to govornments for a number that is massively driven by externalities.
Lived in NY for a while (manhattan) and travelled to a lot of other states. The comparison rings true for me, NY has it’s own culture for sure.
In fairness. “net zero” has a precise but pimited meaning. If anything using “net zero” as shorthand for “zero net increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide” is deficient in the first place. It’s snappy and (reasonably) clear but very easy to twist or repurpose or reframe.
