what the fuck is this shit?

also worth mentioning every time mp salaries go up we're told its cos we want 'the best most qualified experienced ppl' but like, all we have is a conveyor belt from usually like oxbridge but def generally redbricks who've got no experience of anything outside of their briefcase jobs

lol no way

look there is one simple reason economics is shit & that is that when modelling stuff for policy the default position is 'assuming all else being equal...' the second would be the assumption of rational consumers but ceteris paribus is disqualifying by itself

cheers faisal islam is crying

feel like this was obvious but then again we all know right wing ppl dont understand media, so

Yeah, a lot of disabled people are about to lose their benefits so John Healey can wank himself to death surrounded by a pile of bombs, aren’t they.

Such is the nature of the Labour Party that whenever there’s a cabinet reshuffle every sacking will be hilarious but every promotion will be horrifying

Congrats to Andy Burnham, finding the one person worse than Mahmood for Chancellor. Hope everyone's excited for the entire budget to go into the army!

holy shit is that @jdportes.bsky.social

i will bet burnham's govt will float national service / conscription at least twice before the end of this parliament

every usa govt ever have been mass murdering authoritarians & u very literally worked for them u silly cunt

It's kind of amazing that the choices for Chancellor were: 1. Maybe do some green energy and be a normal country 2. Smash living standards so immigration go down 3. Redirect all benefits into the military spending black hole because we're afraid of the Paedophile Emperor And Burnham picked 3.

hey man what republican policies did u support & why was it hard to abandon them?

'i just want to be able to vote for ppl to die without it sounding uncouth'

Andy Burnham must resign

my mate works as a plumber & i just heard that apparently on all the group chats they had to go & do an emergency clean out of 10 downing street cos keir starmer left a really big poo that wouldnt flush

i dont know who but someone who has my nowtv login has used it to watch harry potter so now i get a load of that shit in the 'things u might be interested in' bit & is there any way to block that content

the most bullshit thing about doing this is long term economic planning is actually required & good but they dont consider the idea of short term spending increases for investment that sees a return further down the line, because them & the press always cry about deficits despite knowing better

Mauritanie : plus de 200 migrants secourus en deux jours, 120 portés disparus #Refugees

behold

why are we still doing this

trying to figure out who is more embarrassing in a celebration w the trophy between donald trump or john terry

media under capitalism will always be biased against the left because media is privately owned and the left is anticapitalist. right wingers will say the media is biased against them no matter how hard the media is actually sucking their dick because that's how fascist grievance propaganda works

truly deprived of an incredible world cup final by colombia not being able to finish their chances for shit

if the spanish players say something about gibraltar again will ed davey cease to exist in the paradox of who he hates more

a mirror is required at metlife stadium

the only thing the bbc do well is the little montages at the end of sports events but like fuck do they pay the talented ppl who make them anywhere near as much as romesh ranganathan or ian hislop to make the same jokes every week on some shit panel show

half time show would be better if it was just ronaldinho & ronaldo doing kepler uppies & pinging the ball to each other like that nike advert

Shitting on marginalised groups like trans people and having the BBC News website look like a “MIGRANT CRIME” X account does not have a opposing equivalent on the other end of the political spectrum because those said groups are marginalised. Happy to help!

listen to @bloodwork.show

It was not yet operational, so no radiation release is expected, but bombing a nuclear power site is still an extraordinarily reckless expansion of a campaign already damaging Iran’s water and transport infrastructure. #Iran

Andy Burnham is joining the war on historic heatwaves, on the side of historic heatwaves.

"Brutality was an unpleasant necessity when the police were targeting Black Americans, but now that white people are in the crosshairs, we're steaming mad."

fwiw the rodri & morata 1-game bans & simunic's 10-game ban came after a near month-long disciplinary processes

Labour must never be forgiven for the staggering cruelty they are inflicting upon children. Utterly heartbreaking thread.

i dont like argentina as much as most ppl but seeing a fucking horde of england fans abusing some random lad in central london so he had to have a load of cops encircle him for his safety is fucking gross

which grandfather tho??

don't have to hear wonderwall anymore either, thank fuck

if u are english at least be buoyed by keir starmer having gone from rock hard to completely flaccid because he cant go to the final anymore

if guy mowbray has a million haters, im one of them. if guy mowbray has ten haters, im one of them. if guy mowbray has only one hater, thats me. if guy mowbray has no haters, it means im no longer on earth. if the world is against guy mowbray, then im for the world

no i will not be engaging in indoor/outdoor cat discourse w americans. not today, satan

i refuse to watch this because i don't have myself that much rn but can someone tell me if it's worse then when the american ones did imagine back in 2020?

“Keir Starmer had hoes”
