It wouldn't be the second anyway (strong Remain win in 1975). It would be best of three. But I agree, no more refs.

It would be fine to speak German instead of English. What a stupid thing for the haunted pencil to say. What is not fine is being under the jackboot, no rights for women and workers, state-sanctioned racism, etc. etc.

Just tax the compute. Datacentre? Cool. Fund your own power generation and water reservoirs, and then pay tax for every computational act your datacentre does. And we'll use the tax income to offset societal and job damage. Overnight, AI becomes something AI giants are desperate to restrict.

How is it free? Because the absence of tax and overheads allows a vast investor bubble, which will burst and cause a financial crisis like 2008, when we haven't even recovered from that yet. You think the far right came from nowhere? No, it came from a financial crisis. Which we are still in.

It only feels “radically progressive” because we’ve spent 40 years normalising radically regressive ideas. This was broadly how Britain worked from 1945–79, when average GDP growth was 2.6% a year — compared with 1.9% in the post-Thatcher years. It works www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If people don't want to pay tax to make this country function and help out the rest of society and particularly those who need help most... then maybe they should move to Dubai and stop bleating about it. Really sick to death of it.

Labour would no longer have majority govt so often (not that it IS often now) but we would have progressive coalitions, given that the majority of UK voters favour the centre and left-of-centre parties.

The rush to speculate that asylum seekers are responsible for every crime in the news is a sort of opportunistic informational terrorism. Until it’s disproved it stokes fear and hatred. When it is disproved there are no adverse consequences and they know that they only have to be lucky once.

Two months ago Trump gave a primetime address claiming China attacked US elections. Yesterday, he flew their flag on top of the Oval Office. If like me, you worked on a TV show w Trump when he rented an entire floor of Trump Tower to China’s largest bank, you won’t be surprised.

Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Thanks to my Scottish ancestry I consider myself 'British'. Suella Braverman (Mauritian/Kenyan parents, raised in UK, studied in France,) can consider herself whatever she wants, but as she's also very clearly saying non-white people cannot be English she can also absolutely fuck off.
