@StevePigott7@Rod__Mason@Neil147497@The_TUC This year. What about next?
They were able to get that support in response to the council's decision. Next year there's no guarantee that'll happen, or they'll just decide to go somewhere else.
Short term thinking from a short sighted party.
@Artemisfornow Party full of racists, that courts support of racists, says racist shit and get called out on being racist...
It's all a conspiracy I tells you!!!!
@Helen_Whately This is utter pish.
If you had 3 individuals all claiming they would be able to get *more* than if they claim as additional wives.
They would have to be entitled on their own merit, not their husbands
And this applies to single digits of people.
Fear mongering bullshit.
@KemiBadenoch Our energy is expensive because of wholesale gas prices on the international market.
A system the Tories brought in when they sold off oil and gas to their mates.
A system that uses marginal pricing, charging us the most expensive price (gas) - brought in by your party.
@Fox_Claire Councils invest money into schemes that boost economic activity in their area. A predicted 900% ROI is a phenomenal return for such a scheme.
But that logic won't apply to a party obsessed with driving divisive culture wars.
@Rod__Mason@Neil147497@The_TUC Cost to the council: £10k
Expected economic boost to local economy: £100k
A 900% ROI.
The win win is the authority funding it to drive economic activity. But that logic won't apply if it's a group reform (or their US Christian fundamentalist backers) find icky.
@EastRenAsks@Honeythedog1@Mac5411 Almost like modern studies requires a degree in areas that overlap with politics.
Politics, Sociology, Economics, Criminology, Geography, History or Economic History, International relations, Law, Social policy.
Complete mystery why people with that background go into politics.
@PabloEscapade@whitey6689@chargooond@Telegraph@RowanPelling The word cooked was around before gen Z, you're still using it in that context. Application of vernacular means different things to different groups.
Female and women refer to the same thing, but have different uses; they aren't interchangeable.
This is a well documented thing.
@theranger1872@ginadavidsonlbc I'm not opposed to straight into government. I'd actually prefer a system where gov hires actual experts to head depts, not elected politicians.
The fact you can bounce around depts based on favour with the boss, on top of split responsibilities with constituency is a joke.
@whitey6689@chargooond@Telegraph@RowanPelling You do realise using 'female' instead of 'woman' (since those words have different uses in English) is incel/manosphere vernacular used to dehumanise women?
Give a few years and the telegraph will start using 'foid' seriously.
@bannon1975 Genuinely what's the alternative?
Until they're old/proficient enough to read independently you need to group them. Putting kids who are barely literate with kids who read above age level is just pointless for everyone involved.
@VerhofstadtQ Not before, but definitely after.
Should anyone standing for election be forced to quit their current job before running?
But if he's elected it triggers an automatic election for mayor.
@educator4ever36 I will stick up for this though. It's a matter of access, not ability.
In the holidays I can go hours without needing to go. When I'm teaching (and drinking less) I have to go way more often.
The fact I *can't* just go triggers a thing in my brain that increases the need to.
@marcmaths@anengteacher1@warwickmansell That's not the stories we're getting though.
All access denied.
Detention if you go.
Must wait for SLT escorts that don't arrive.
There's a difference between available and accessible. There might be a toilet open somewhere, but if you can't go to it its not accessible.
@dusty_smokey@Theleftorwright Does presenting the metaphysical idea of sexuality to children as fact encourage children to be straight?
Should we ban discussion of *all* relationships lest we unknowingly encourage heterosexuality on children?
