Just decided to flick onto gb news, haven't watched it for maybe 2 years. They seem to have evolved into an even worse kind of vile. Smelly talking headed men who are misogynistic, homophobic, and basically, vile. Sky and BBC are actually far superior as is ITV and Peston just.

I'm not a Green, I'm Labour. But Green are a billion times better than Reform. The former care and the latter are opportunistic. This is definately worth a repost.

Greens ahead of Reform among young people but the media don’t want to talk about that.

Your statements contradict. On one hand you are blaming it on ethnicity and on the other hand you are saying it should be treated equally? Catholic Church; for example, isn't Islamic, but that was hidden too? So why use ethnicity to define a pedophile probability? It can only be a political agenda.

Anyone who advocates the banning of free speech is maybe the person we should fear most. Everyone, I mean everyone should be free to represent themselves. Only then do we know who they may really be, and whether they align to our own beliefs.

Even with the fact that all our sciences will probably be proven wrong in the next 50 or so years, the scientific method is still the best method for inductive reasoning. If something is found likely to happen, then even if we know not why, it's still the best bet.

Lol. That is very poorly written. And it attacks my education level to which you have no knowledge. With a very complex changing landscape on a global scale, it must be so that, Corbyn's ideas fit around Corbyn. Anyway, an off the peg 'practise' has to be flawed as unresponsive to current events.

There is a huge difference between the two. Corbyn means well and is morally sound, Farage is in it for himself and is morally wrong. Their likeness is that they would both destroy our country and make us poorer and isolated, but by different routes.

I don't disagree with you, and things could be better. My worry is the building targets and the confounding variables of pushing through come what may. The Grenfell towers is one example of over sites through budgets and efficiencies.

Imagine Britain turning against all of their diplomatic allies and being further alone than we already, in reality, are. Morals are fine, but when it is absolutely not in the best interest for our country, then there is a dilemma. Easy for Corbyn to shout out like Farage does too. Bystanders

Hooray for Kemi, long lose Tories! Keep them coming Tories, as it gives labour a chance to finally fix the problems with a proper long term strategy, instead of short term populism we are so used to.

Left and right are old constructs that no longer sit well and are far too constraining. Better vote for policies. The opportunity of one policy often has a cost somewhere else. All governments need to be honest pre election.

Starmer's meeting with Xi Jinping at the G20, is an effort to diversify it's economy and strengthen bilateral relations. the UK's objective is to have trade ties with major global economies, as in the context of potential shifts in US trade policies under Trump, who has proposed tariffs on imports

The U.S. has trade and drug tensions. China banned synthetic opioids in 2019, pushing Mexican cartels to source fentanyl precursors from China, producing it in Mexico, and shipping it to the U.S. Proposed tariffs on Mexico could hurt U.S. automakers despite the USMCA trade pact.

In the '80s, I was in a pub with a jukebox playing 45s. Between great tracks, someone queued 3.5 minutes of a guy talking over a drumbeat—odd, I thought. Weeks later, more tracks appeared: guys rambling, often narcissistic or sexist, over basic beats. It was rap—my unexpected introduction to it.

I would imagine you will soon end up with all walks of life, but better options at managing the fools. If you block everyone you disagree with, then yes, it will be an echo chamber. So be mindful of who you block and how you want to filter

Does feel like good news, but can you remember the reason they were privatized in the first place? I do. We were told it was because of national inefficiencies, much like the NHS. The older I get the less I seem to understand.

Wow. Kemi Badenoch thought this Harry Enfield sketch of a Tory, the sneering cliche that is Alex Burghart, whose sole claim to fame is being Boris Johnson's Private Secretary during #partygate, shouting his head off at a working class woman would play well with voters, did she? #PMQs

Alex Burghart at #PMQs: "What is the government doing to bring down inflation?" Angela Rayner: "Many people might not know but [Burghart] was the minister for growth under Liz Truss when inflation was 11.1% and growth flatlined. So we're doing much better than he did!"

Australian-style ban on social media for under-16s is “on the table” if tech companies don't take action to protect kids. Tech sec Peter Kyle tells Ofcom to be more assertive with firms ahead of new legal powers coming into force in 2025. He suggests UK could “another level of regulation” if not.
