2 days agoIn a monarchy you can criticize the Prime Minister or any other minister in government, but it’s treason to speak out against the King.
What?
The king can go fuck himself.

0·5 days agoThere are 28 million families in the UK. [1]
Your article implies there are 25 million houses and 1 million is empty. [2]
The empty houses in the photos are not suitable for living in and should be condemned if they haven’t already. Rebuilding a mid-terrace house is not simple and even after blow all of that we managed 1 million out of the 4 million required to at least have one home per family. That sounds like a terrible plan to work on the most expensive work and ultimately not make a dent in the issue.

We will also modernise, simplify, and reform the intrusive and outdated gender recognition law to a new process. We will remove indignities for trans people who deserve recognition and acceptance;
Hmm.
Its only an imaginary standard because its not been set further than “we should require people to learn some English”.
We have plently of standards in schools throughout the so thats not the hard part.
Now its not anything I would touch because of the level of racists that attach themselves to this “issue”.
Which turned out to be not very big.
Additionally, 1.5% (880,000) could not speak English well, and a small percentage (0.3%, 161,000) of the overall population could not speak English at all.
161k people don’t speak English? That sounds like a solvable problem, as thats not very many at all. The question would be how to identify them, and help them? My personal experience is generally elderly parents who have been brought here by someone acting as a carer, which puts it back firmly in “unsolvable”. If they haven’t already learnt it, and aren’t necessarily here though choice, its going to be a challenge.
Knowing our current government though, it would probably be by copying Trump and sending the military door to door to ask everyone a simple English language puzzle.
Citation for a kid in the UK getting shot by the police for kicking a ball at a “no ball games” sign please.
I didn’t ever watch Jem.
Or that troll with the heart ears so I don’t remember the name offhand.
She-ra in the top left. In front is a gummy bear (its still on Disney+), Rainbow Bright in the middle, a carebear to the left and Strawberry Shortcake on the right of the MLP.
That was a terrible video that doesnt explain your points.
lack of accountability
How so? Thats just a transparency issue, if we know that 50% of the Labour votes were originally Green votes then that definitely sets a tone.
That would require a massive reworking of how our system works, wouldn’t it?
Couldn’t just ranked choice fix the majority of the issues with voting?
3·2 months agoBecause DirectX is more than a graphics API.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectX
A fair amount of what used to make DirectX an everything API has been deprecated, but if you are already using Windows stuff for networking and audio, then you may as well use the graphics APIs too.
I do think Proton gets a little too much credit.
Why? Valve has been sponsoring all these projects for a really long time. While wine existed before that, it wouldn’t be anywhere near the shape thats its currently in because gaming was not its main focus. There have been loads of gaming bugs and sharp edges that have been around wine for a long time until Valve put in the money and devs to fix them.
Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD proved that.
You must be mixing me up with someone else, because I’m definitely not offended.
The PM is a two faced prick, I think we can all agree on that. And that’s really all that matters.
I did, but you still reiterated the point hence why people keep calling you out on it.
You said
Our PM is a zionist with israeli family
And everyone keeps asking for a citation that his wife is Israeli. Our PM could just simply be an absolute cunt without blood ties.
0·2 months agoNo.
We have been exploring techniques to further reduce the amount of information that is accessible to the service, and the latest beta release includes changes designed to move Signal incrementally closer to the goal of hiding another piece of metadata: who is messaging whom.
They haven’t hidden it yet. It’s a goal.
And what could go wrong…

Its been ongoing in Birmingham for a long time.

There have been several scams over the decades, which put the council into bankruptcy. A Union isn’t going to ever accept a potential paycut, so they are stuck.
Waste collection doesn’t want to be scheduled for the full 32 hours they are contracted so they can collect the overtime, and the council don’t want to pay overtime for people working their normal hours. The only thing the council can do is cut the folks being paid the most, but the Union won’t let that happen either.
Just increase council tax in Birmingham and separate out the waste disposal as a line item so that the people can see where their money is going.
