@MagriTiger@Survation ‘Mon the bin! Amazing that a man with a bin on his head can get 1 in 5 votes, especially when the candidate that is going to win was the MP there until he resigned to force a totally unnecessary by-election!
@Finaldestinii@blacknmild85@StellerGoon0321@RachelTrue Indeed. It is about what you believe is the best role for government to play. I believe that it is incumbent on them to look after their people by providing these services. Most of the civilised world does. The happiness index shows that such things improve lives.
@Rods200@MarinaPurkiss The flip side of it is “no one has a right to not be offended”. But people do have a right to be offended. There is no such thing as free speech. It is a logic trap.
@bolt1001@paceman76@TalkTV@jkyleofficial There is actually next to no left wing any more. Greens are the only mainstream party left of true centre. The far left is almost nonexistent - the British Communist Party has <1300 members. The people you are referring to are actually centrists and centre-right!
@Finaldestinii@blacknmild85@StellerGoon0321@RachelTrue I am in the top 1.5% of earners in my country. I have a degree from a prestigious university but work in an unrelated field. I support paying more tax to fund welfare and healthcare. I have been fortunate and want to pay it back in.
@playboyreview@MarinaPurkiss It’s not. It the old reliable division of class falling down and having to be reinstated in different terms by those that wish to rule. Populism is the tool of choice after a slow burning revolution. That’s what we see.
