I also imagine the demographics for BGT viewers skew quite old, and I'm in the minority as a young viewer (since I watch it because I watched every season when I was a kid).

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

28.72% of viewers are morons. Which incidentally is around the same percentage of Reform UK voters in the polls.

@NateB_Panic What do you mean by all judges being political appointees?

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

Union members voting for Reform is basically turkeys voting for Christmas.

It’s been funny watching stupid right-wingers pretend that white French people haven’t been rioting every single year for 400 years.

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

Unfortunately the British public have proven themselves to be dumb as seen by the hi-vis guy winning a few years earlier and in general by the success of Reform UK.

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

Let's be honest this was because of politics not talent, they were by far not the most talented act and only won because Reform voters thought that them winning would be a middle finger to the government.

Hawkstone Farmers Choir are the winners of Britain’s Got Talent 2026. They become the first choir to ever win. #BritainsGotTalent

I used to think that Burnham would be different, but I've learned over the last month or so that he's just going to be Starmer recycled.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham is set to appoint Shabana Mahmood as Chancellor if he becomes PM

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

Well there's a way to get Reform into power early.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham is considering calling an early general election if he becomes PM

And the US and Europe also have stupidly expensive housing.

[Henry Curr @ecurrnomics]

The idea that Britain's economy would thrive if only it had more social housing is also absurd

The aftermath of the coup of 9 Thermidor.

Forget historically progressive. What events in history were historically regressive.

Why do people seem to have such a good opinion of Badenoch? All she's been is discount Farage.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Word clouds showing what the public think of each party leader

[Kat 🏳️‍🌈 @Kat_Says_Stuff]

Let’s look at this shall we. It comes from the minimum wage being “too high”
Why is it too high? Because of housing costs.
Until the 2000s housing was 10-20% of income. It’s now over 30% (and up to 70%)
“Why can’t we change this?”
Because the top 20 richest come from property

We are in capitalism’s final stage, where global capital can’t expand or sustain past profits. It now consumes public institutions and key systems, sacrificing democracy, welfare, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and ecosystems for short-term gain.

[charlotte 🇵🇸 @clewrites]

Because we don't have the resources to do so...?

[tess @xsphi]

why are teenagers, as a class, so incapable of political self-defense? they're on the verge of losing access to large swaths of the internet, social media, and culture generally, and they... don't seem to care at all?

[Alain Beidou @avispartan1]

Liberal economics tells us this isn't possible because the landlords will compete with each other to lower prices, in reality landlords aren't stupid enough to start self-ruinous price wars and instinctively understand that the tenants are the enemy!

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The Atlantic slave trade is not singled out because other slavery didn't exist.

It is singled out because it built the world we currently live in.

The financial institutions.
The insurance markets.
The shipping routes.
The racial categories.
The colonial borders.
The wealth distribution between continents that still defines the global economy today.

The Atlantic slave trade is not studied with particular intensity because historians are biased.

It is studied with particular intensity because its consequences are not historical.

They are present.

You don't single it out to assign ancient blame.

You examine it to understand current reality.

The reason your argument wants to dissolve that specificity into universal human wickedness is precisely because universal human wickedness requires nothing from anyone today.

Specific, traceable, present consequences do.

Meanwhile Reform UK want to scrap climate targets and their supporters go on about how climate change is a hoax.
