If you are at all interested in Jung or Spinoza (and have a little extra scratch), you should take this seminar with my bud, Bob. I am lucky enough to spend a couple hours a week chatting with him about philosophy, and even in that very informal setting, I always come out richer than when I entered.

Labour are the party of work. They believe work gives life value. If the Labour Party have a theory of freedom, it is that work makes you free. If you want to be free, the Labourite says "Get back to work!"

So his strategy is to push Labour Left (i.e. outflank the right of the Labour party), and instead of overseeing any of mass base building, he's basically staking the movement energy around his leadership on one election? The Greens expect activists to burn themselves out for this corbynite shit?

In Victorian England there were multiple cases of 'doctors' killing people via experimental treatments for different diseases (usually tb), and judges letting them off based on 'the necessity to experiment and cure this terrible disease'. Anyway legal policy around AI is that but for writing emails.

The strike continues www.unitetheunion.org/news-events/...
The workers have already rejected a 3.4 per cent pay offer and a revised £1200 uplift and have been on strike since 14 September. This week, management seemingly submitted a noise complaint after the sound from supportive vehicles passing the picket line which could be heard inside the building, only to be given short shrift by the City of London Police. Legalease has a history of poor workplace relations, with two members of staff fired due to trade union activities when Unite first sought recognition two years ago.

Unite regional officer Will Searby said: “It is hugely disappointing but unsurprising that Legalease has done nothing to try to end this dispute and instead seemingly tried to involve the police. Sadly, this is typical of its approach to employment relations.

"Legalease can afford a decent pay rise for its staff so they can live with dignity in London.”

Fucking called it. Dropped the reckless endangerment/with intent aggravating factor (ignore thensubtitle under the thumbnail, that's out of date). That reduces the maximum sentence from life to 3 months and a £2,500 fine. Makes it look like it doing something, while getting him back to work ASAP.

I wrote an essay about how 40k is bursting with British class pessimism, like "the avg human is a trivial lepton in the background of a story about more powerful men & thats all you'll ever be" Then someone pointed out 40k was created by Northern Brits during the Thatcher era & it was like ah. Yep.

Let's nail what's going on here: frail vicars who oppose the incineration of babies with British munitions components are being manhandled & hauled off in front of the press for peacefully *sitting down*. Violent tooled up racists are *filming themselves doing crimes* & are handled with kid gloves
A Hampshire Constabulary statement said: "As a result, six people were arrested for offences including careless driving, assaulting an emergency worker and aggravated trespass. They remain in custody at this time and our enquiries into these incidents continue."The police statement did not make any reference to Mr Thomas, but added: "We are also aware of a video circulating online relating to damage being caused to a boat in the English Channel on the afternoon of September 22, and we are conducting enquiries into the matter."
