For anyone who would like to learn more about what Nigel is talking about I recommend you watch this documentary: The Labour Files

Yeah but guys, you've got to remember, money doesn't grow on trees.

So despite me owning multiple properties, owning so much land I must employ people to maintain it for me, and owning multiple cars that are worth more than you earn in an entire year, you have to remember it's the immigrants that are making everyone poorer.

Look! They dress and look slightly different from you, therefore it must be them at fault. Ignore that they're here because their country is currently going through war/genocide/famine/mass poverty, they're different!

What do you mean you want me to pay 2% more tax per year? Fuck off you communist scum!

Tap for spoiler/s

The amount of Americans that claim to be Scottish because their great great grandparent once farted in Edinburgh is pretty damned high to be fair.

The difference between the amount of Americans with genuine Scottish ancestry and the amount who arbitrarily claim Scottish ancestry is absurd. I dunno if they all saw Braveheart and decided "Freedom! Fuck yeah, I want some of that!" or what but it's ridiculous.

Well that headline is ambiguous. I thought at first it meant customers which sex workers deem dangerous will be criminalised. I.e. if you hit a sex worker then it's a specific crime outside of standard assault, like assaulting a police officer is a separate crime from standard assault.

But no, we can't have safer working conditions for sex workers, it's just a standard pearl clutching "think of the children" bigoted conservative proposal.

Fuck Alba, they don't even know how to pronounce their own party's name let alone govern. They're a poison on the independence movement and bring nothing but intolerance

Turkey knows how to respond to Russian aggression.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_Russian_Sukhoi_Su-24_shootdown

In addition to what the introduction says about giving multiple warnings to the pilot, the Background section covers that they had also given multiple warnings about previous similar incidents and told Russia that if they kept doing this there would be consequences. This was therefore those consequences, and guess what? Russia backed off and stopped entering Turkish airspace.

In addition to dieting you can try replacing fork reps with barbell reps. This gives a source of dopamine and increases your resting metabolic rate, making the dieting a bit easier.

Plus being stronger just makes day to day life easier.

Good luck, you got this!

That's how English aristocrats (and aristocrat wannabes) say rugby. Whether that's what they mean I dunno though

gestures broadly at the UK...

 

21 years of minimum wage
Got no problems with manual labour

You stepped up in the 90s, wanna show me how
Well, I don't need no fuckin' favour

I am the working class!
All day
So I don't have to
See your face.

I am the working class!
Discipline
The daybreak is when
I begin

I am the working class!
Each day
I bust my bones to
Get paid

I am the working class!
Damn straight
The daily grind is
My fate

Through 7 seas of alcohol
And a jail of dank depression
Well, I turned my back and where are you now?
...and I've bucked up for that recession

 

Food banks, poll tax, mass unemployment,
And you wanna buy into more lies?
Privatisation of public assets,
I want the lies stopped.

Fuck the union!
Revolution!

Austerity and inequality,
Ruled by the unelected,
Minimal wages, child poverty,
It's time for the new order.

Fuck the union!
Revolution!

 

OI POLLOI - Terra-Ist from the Fuaim Catha album

They've poisoned and clear-felled and strip-mined this earth
Made a cess pit of the paradise that was ours by birth
They've raped and they've burned and they've plundered our world
Our banner of resistance will now be unfurled
We're nailing our colours right up to the mast
The sands of time are running out fast
To stop the nutters destroying our home
Kidnapped from our children from whom it's on loan
Enough is enough is enough of their greed
Mass eco-defence is what the earth needs
Terra-ist action all over the land
To stop the lunacy the rich have got planned
E.L.F. strike in the dead of night
See the bulldozers are burning bright
Construction area totally trashed
Earth-rape machinery utterly smashed
Some might say that we're too "extreme"
But all we want is air and water that's clean
And a green earth not a desert is what we need
Don't let them sacrifice it on their altar of greed
Rise up and conquer your fear
They can be stopped like Jose-Maria
Our world a toxic slag-heap they will make
So take whatever action you feel it's right to take
It's up to you it's up to me to make a stand
Our generation holds it's future in it's hands
Time to fight back let them do their worst
Green anarchy in action - put the earth first!
