@Keir_Starmer Sick of labour fighting this invisible wave of "immigrants" to what end? Go after the billionaires and super corporations not paying tax, stop attacking vulnerable people! Houses costs the highest they've ever done, foods expensive, no stable jobs sort that out mate
Every news article that keeps highlighting reforms "MAJOR WIN" is conveniently not pointing out that it's literally just Tory voters shifting to another party. Making it seem like this huge wave of win when it's still conservative just in a different voice.
@PolitlcsUK Literally not though as the recent council votes had one of the lowest turn outs? Diabolically low from young voters. Every right wing shift prediction lovingly comes from a polling of only like 2k people
@Keir_Starmer Can you make rent not cost over half of my paycheck, and figure out why nipping to the shops costs almost double than it did five years ago? That'd be really nice but no, please do buy a fleet of drones instead, cheers good one
Sure they think it's a win to get a "definition" but practically, how do you know? Without making women have to prove themselves again and again. Masculine cis women, or women who don't fit the ideals of womanhood are about to see an uptick in discrimination
To claim a space can only be used by biological women infers the demand to show your genitals to gain entry (and even to cut you open and view your insides I suppose)

Been years of going into your stores and always being misled by bad labels and lack of stock. I have zero issue in other charity shops or thrift stores, it just kind of seems you don't like sizes above 10.
@WhiteRoseShop why, every time I go into one of your shops the sizing is awful? I went in today and at least three XLs were actually size eights? There are barley any large sizes, and I know they're being donated. The damage you must be doing to young girls who see these sizing
I've literally never nor know anyone who has been polled by YouGov. Also why are they polling during a non election year? What are we all voting on 'vibes' and tweets? It's so fishy that Reform are getting this big push in the media
Our latest voting intention poll (2-3 Feb) has Reform UK in front for the first time, although the 1pt lead is within the margin of error.
Ref: 25% (+2 from 26-27 Jan)
Lab: 24% (-3)
Con: 21% (-1)
Lib Dem: 14% (=)
Green: 9% (=)
SNP: 3% (=)
The Departure Lounge Call Out is open!

@MrsJayneW I really loved how standing on sky's edge did time, with same set but different actors wearing very distinct clothing from time periods. I think I always love when one scene ends and the other begins underneath it, like we see the ghosts of previous years (if possible)
Nothing confirms the greed of TV executives that a show like squid games can run alongside a real life version of the games. The show is literally about the hell of debt and poverty and yet they make a show doing the exact thing squid games stands against
