There’s a familiar Libertarian story about Europe: Too much bureaucracy. Too much regulation. Too many worker protections. Too much privacy law. That’s why Europe doesn’t produce as many tech giants. It’s a neat argument. I’m just not sure it survives contact with detail.

The BBC undercover investigation into false immigration claims is deeply irresponsible journalism. It does not highlight that exploitation by unregulated advisors occurs because legal aid was cut and the system is insane to navigate.

In 1993, "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" made a Black man the star of a major sci-fi franchise and his character was like the Platonic ideal of a loving father, a great cook, a man who uplifted others, who was kind and tolerant but MILITANTLY so, and who also had flaws like any other human. Hail Sisko

my favorite scale model of the solar system is in melbourne. it has the sun as a 1.39 meter orb, then you can walk/cycle out to each planet. mercury is 50-ish meters away and all the way out is pluto at 5.9km. it also has, a few steps away from the sun, a model of our nearest star, proxima centauri

Please read this, understand what the govt is doing & take action. Labour's immigration proposals swap integration for segregation, introduce a Dubai-style Kafala system of coercive employer control & drive low-income families into poverty. They're an abomination.
