    Charlie Kirk Shot

    This is just complete bullshit. Whether you think Kimmel sucks or not its insane that the quality of his show is the reason its been taken off hour. The republicans openly pressured the FCC and within hours he was off air. Same as Colbert. Doesn't matter what 'side' you're on you should be...

    Embarrassing

    Thought I'd give Polanski's podcast a go as I don't know much about him or what he stands for. Only halfway through the first episode but its with a former Tommy Robinson supporter. Some pretty interesting stuff in there about how you tackle the issue and the danger of branding everyone racist...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Its a self created problem really. Starmer decided to try and silence the elements of the party further to the left, shouldn't really be a surprise that they don't like that. Problem becomes when he adds in a few shoot yourself in the foot moments like the WFA, Mandleson etc it becomes an...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    For reasons unknown my Dad has every bank statement since the dawn of time boxed up and in the loft. Been quite an eye opener looking through them as I've been clearing some of his stuff out (still waiting to find something nobody knew he had that is worth millions!). The % of his income he...

    Not sure if you're being genuine here or suggesting iNews is a 'leftie' publication.

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    There's a 3 parter from John Oliver back when he was on the Daily Show that's worth a watch on YouTube. Discusses how Australia held pretty much the same view but gun regulations were still changed to stop mass shootings.

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    Sure there's going to be a ton of stuff to come out on this but where are you seeing anything confirmed? From what I'm reading the prosecution have made allegations but have also admitted he isn't talking.

    Are polls real today? I can't keep track.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Always makes me laugh when there's a reshuffle. Someone hasn't completely fucked up their job so they get 'promoted' to something completely unrelated. If you're good and experienced with transport, for example, stay with transport. Don't move them somewhere else. No other workplace does this.

    Personally if I was in Burnham's position I'd stay where I was. He seems well liked and unlikely to be voted out any time soon.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Interesting to see media reports surfacing around Starmer loyalists trying to make a deal with Burnham to head off a leadership challenge, especially given when this was discussed a couple of days ago the consensus seemed to be there was zero chance he would mount a bid.

    The Abbott stuff is disgusting. How are these people anywhere near government? Not the first time she's been the target of some pretty horrific treatment either.

    this isn't really the defence he thinks it is given everyone else in the country knew.

    Immigration and Asylum

    Great post. The problem runs far deeper than 'stop the boats'. You could stop every single boat and very little would actually change. We have zero plan for how to deal with ever increasing automation. We've ignored it until now and there's massive resistance to any attempt to change work...

    There's people throwing around claims of 1m plus which is insane. If anyone can remember back to the Iraq protest that brought London to a standstill and took people hours to move anywhere.

    Embarrassing

    Not sure that's true tbh, at least not on here. Most people are open to a debate. Sure there's a couple of posters who try to derail it, along with pretty much every thread, but most people are up for a sensible debate. The biggest problems seems to be getting to grips with the differences...

    Yet the politics thread is full of people moaning about centrists dominating the political landscape

    Im no fan of Starmer or this government but what exactly are you reasonably expecting in the time they’ve had https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr4zzvq2p33t
