@GBPolitcs So when they show images of French police slashing boats, it's used as proof that they are doing something and the labour strategy is working, but when an ordinary guy does it, its illegal?
@GBPolitcs@FT Another 'black hole' to fill... but didn't we find out that the last one was completely fabricated?? They're really going to pull the same one again?
@MrHreviews@GBPolitcs@FT Its deliberate, its all to provoke and to enrage, just like the corruption, bizarre outcomes in legal cases, increasing profits at the companies putting your bills up etc. They want you furious and it will keep getting worse. They want you to know this stuff.
@JonathanPieNews If it was a real arse it would improve the quality of life on earth, sort out disease, pollution, hunger etc, give us a few years of paradise and then do it just as a sort of 'this is what you could have won' sort of thing.
@ThatAlexWoman The good news is that self improving AI would quickly figure out how to remove any element of control being exerted by bad human actors and I'm all for that. The bad news is that benign controls would also be bypassed. We don't know what moral code the AI would adopt after that.
@rickygervais Genuine question, are there any actual jokes in it or is it all just characters shouting at each other and calling each other c**ts? Clips all suggest the latter.
@englishbobsnr@BBCBreaking The gangs thing is massively overstated by politicians. Its NGOs and likely the French government facilitating based on people investigating the last few months.
@AHart1974@ZackPolanski And interest. If your home is mortgaged then you will probably pay 2-3x the purchase price over the typical lifetime of needing a mortgage yet they talk about taxing any 'profit' you make when you sell it. Most people will never make a 'profit' if they had a mortgage.
@Artemisfornow Yes, few people seem to think ahead to secondary effects and beyond. There's a universe where Digital ID, UBI and CBDC could be used to help the response to AI / collapsing currencies etc but unfortunately we're not in that universe.
@AllisonPearson More evidence of the erosion of separation between the executive and judiciary which is essential to a functioning democracy.
Our government dare to claim that Musk / Vance etc are interfering with our democracy. Our democracy is getting demolished by our own government!
@SuellaBraverman Your colleague Nadhim Zahawi said a similar thing about Vaccine Passports, saying that they should not be considered even though the contracts were aleady signed... even demonstrably lying to members of the HoL about them. What are we to make of this then?
