iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Haven't watched it yet but finally a PM that I can actually stand to listen to. Couldn't listen to either of the previous two.

No lol. I get PIP. It goes up with inflation, that's good enough.

000

40* even! It's even worse 🤦‍♂️.

Yep exactly. "Oh no, pensions will increase slightly less quickly every year than they do currently" The public: "Pensions are less generous today than they were 20 years ago." Ffs.

I despair. People fundamentally don't understand the triple lock. Otherwise, let's just apply a triple lock to PIP payments too? Thought not.

This is short-sighted. Developers will LOVE this. Means that they can charge more.

Clearly, as a resource allocation issue pensions should be increased less quickly because the endpoint is that pensions will account for 100% of the budget.

Pensions ARE welfare. But this is good to see from Labour members.

Having a government job hasn't reduced her criticisms of the government.

I would prefer that they follow the intelligence and evidence!

Doesn't seem to make a difference for Angela Rayner.

Totally agreed. There's no chance for Labour to have a consistent, believable message on this when easy headlines like this are allowed.

Rayner up to her old tricks . Regardless of whether one agrees or disagrees with her, you can’t have a Housing Sec criticising the Home Secretary over Home Office policy . Burnham needs to sack her . Angela Rayner condemns Labour’s migrant visa crackdown www.thetimes.com/article/385b...

Angela Rayner condemns Labour’s migrant visa crackdown

Speaking before the party conference, the housing secretary says Shabana Mahmood’s immigration plans would affect care workers

It's much worse the other way around…

Criticism will rightly resume once decisions start getting made from the budget onwards.

Was just thinking that's a bit of a bold assumption 😂.

Because he's a longevity monster. Just sit back and enjoy witnessing sporting history. Suuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Definitely looks awkward.

Agreed. It's a race that we need to win (probably at all costs).

Judging by the level of this comment section, superintelligence (greater than human intelligence) is not going to take that long to achieve lol. Good grief.

000

What the hell. Why?

Superintelligence - Wikipedia

No it's a technical term meaning "surpassing human intelligence". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superin...

What is this supposed to prove? Lol.

Yes, by mugging them 😆.

Isn't that actually quite accurate though for Robin Hood?

Apparently Reform and Con voters are the only ones with enough information to judge this? They seem awfully certain of the right answer!

Burnham’s approval ratings are down 4 to +12, high by recent standards, but at the lower end since he became Prime Minister. Badenoch’s ratings drop to net neutral. Farage down 3 points to -23, Davey holds at -8, Polanski is down 1 to -26, Lowe is at -9 but with low awareness.

Indeed, which as a country we are doing.

Thank you. These people don't look beyond the ends of their own noses. And if you ask Greens if they will support nuclear to replace gas, they will say no.
