potato potahto Like everything else you can whinge it’s not good enough all you like but until you come up with something better it’s just whinging.

Would be very funny if he came back to us with his tail between his legs ngl but I can’t see it.

ill read through this properly. But first glance: the mistake you make IMO is expecting some massive change when literally all that’s required is competent management and evidence based policy to make a huge difference. I’m not looking for a socialist or a Thatcherite revolution, just sensible...

but an embarrassment that likes Kier Starmer 😉

He is the second most popular politician after Farage. Make of that what you will.

TBF Twitter is nothing but extreme takes. I work hard to get a mix from fascist to communist and everything in between and still far right and far left dominate my feed cos that’s what the algorithm rewards. I really do wish we’d stop with the presidentialisation of elections though. Labour...

if it wasn’t clear this is aimed very much as those on the left. And leader personalities mean little. Labour governments change lives for the better. Regardless of the figurehead.

give me the Tory equivalent

*banging table* Zero seats! Zero seats!

Emily Hewertson is denying it was her that threw the shake.

Watch this then go on about how they’re all the same and you’re voting Green. I fucking dare you.

Also milkshaking is really a 2019 thing. Find it hard to believe it’s just randomly made a comeback.

Or people with dementia. Anything other than age of majority leads to messy edge cases and unintended consequences.

That’s not what the age of consent laws are for. See my link earlier. Under 16s can have sex with each other and not get prosecuted. In reality it’s to protect children from adults. Be honest if your 40 year old mate rocked up with a 16 year old missus what would you think?

We moved marriage up to 18, it’s weird we didn’t do the same with sex TBH.

Sorry should have explained. There’s neuroscience research that shows the brain doesn’t mature until 25, so there’s an argument to make that the age of majority but in reality I don’t think anyone would accept it. There’s no real logical age that makes sense where you’re a child one day and an...

I’d go one further. Violence against men and boys is also almost exclusively carried out by men. As is most crime, especially violent crime. What do you do with that info though? I saw somewhere most burglary is done by a tiny proportion of the population. Logic suggests going hard on early...

Votes at 25?

For some people. But you can’t sleep with someone in a position of trust (teacher MP policeman etc) until 18. Because we recognise 16 year olds aren’t mature enough to make all their own decisions. And AoC is 13 in many ways. Two 15 year olds can have sex, a 12 and a 14 year old can’t as under...
