@arsenalfccg @funkomi @RachelReevesMP Frees up housing stock, lowers prices? If not for British citizens then for who…

@Clonehub7567 But did you see the look that same man gave to Hayley when she walked in. He might believe in the institution of marriage but definitely (will) plays away.

The "British mind" truly is a masterclass in wanting to have your cake and eat it, too.

They've spent years shouting from the rooftops that universities are bloated, inefficient relics that shouldn't see a single extra penny of taxpayer money. They mock students for taking on debt, telling them it's their own private investment, and then act shocked when those same institutions, forced to survive as businesses, start looking for customers who can actually pay the bills.

It is a spectacular display of circular logic, they refuse to fund the schools because "they don't benefit everyone," but then we get outraged when they find a way to stay afloat without it. You can't starve an institution of public air and then complain when it starts breathing through a private straw.

This irrationality becomes even more glaring when you look at how they treat international students, particularly those from China, who have become the convenient villain in the latest headlines. These students are effectively the primary benefactors of the British higher education system, often paying two to three times the tuition of a home student. They are quite literally subsidizing the training of British scientists and engineers. They bring massive amounts of disposable income into the local economy, and for the most part, they are eager to take that expertise back home rather than "taking jobs" here. (Everything the right accuses international students of, well it is hard to sell any of it on Chinese students).

Yet, instead of being seen as the financial lifeline that keeps the lights on at Oxford or Imperial, they are framed as a threat or a symptom of "reckless self-neglect".

It’s the ultimate "foreigner bar argument" reached through mindless contradiction. They want the prestige of elite science hubs, but they don't want to pay for them. They want international capital to save our struggling campuses, but they don't want the international students to actually show up and sit in the seats.

@Sophielx0911 Agreed and the people voting know about Lauren too.

I honestly hate that we've normalized the idea that all opinions are valid. I think we should get back to telling ppl that they are ill informed & ignorant.

Actually Jamie Oliver worked to tax sugar and cheap junk food options and then did nothing to actually make healthier options/alternatives affordable for poorer people. He shamed them and then left them with higher prices.

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨

Westminster sources confirm Jeremy Corbyn shared a phone call with Peter Mandelson as recently as yesterday.

It is understood the call consisted of Corbyn laughing into the phone for 20 seconds before Mandelson hung up.

Delroy Lindo isn’t a Brit but he’s a South Londoner and that’s all that matters

[ROB KELLAS @RKELLAS]

this is hard to explain but

middle class people say 'mum' when referring to their mother in external conversation, whereas working class people (correctly) say 'my mum'.

i've noticed this for years but i now have enough data to make the statement. cheers.

This is entirely the point of student loans - to ensure if you don't have wealthy parents you earn 9% less than someone who had wealthy parents. For your whole life. For doing the same job.

Education and work were never meant to allow you to escape the class system.
