I can see the ordinary people getting hit by this budget, that's pretty clear, not quite seeing where the wealthy people are taking on any of the burden though? π€

One of the biggest reasons for the rise of the lunatic parties is that we've decided that no reasonably normal, sane person with the level of minor carelessness and miscreance that any normal sane person has can run for parliament *unless they stand for one of the lunatic parties*
There's no war in Ba Sing Se
If only they had made him verify his age before allowing him to access this summer camp.

The thing about this genocide that makes it even more unbearable is the language the IDF uses while murdering civilians, as if it's a fast food chain that got someone's order wrong. The same perfunctory ambivalence.

Today, like yesterday, like the day before, like the month before, innocent people are butchered and starved in Gaza.
Imagining a board room of suits having a sincere conversation about "high risk music", and having a little mournful chuckle to myself.
`:heading` is going to be great for reset stylesheets. Set all of them to 1rem to better teach the difference between visual and structural hierarchy.
In all this Bob Vylan pearl clutching some are conveniently forgetting the IDF is committing genocide.
A person says "refugees are people too, actually" and broadcasters fall over themselves to 'balance' the debate.
Finding that eager desire for balance a little lacking in a painfully obvious way these last few days.
The year is 2025 and I'm still imploring the BBC to stop being so wet.
They not only don't think about it, they actively dissociate from making that connection because they see themselves as immune, or the situation impossible.
Which is irrelevant.
A government and their military are killing their own civilians that they have systematically starved.
I think UK people do not think enough about how they would feel if the British military and government decided a part of England needed to be caged in, bombed, and then civilians shot at while they desperately sought food.
The 'You wouldn't steal a car' meme. It reads 'you wouldn't do a mean chant about a military currently engaging in what the UN & Amnesty International have called a Genocide'
I get white conservatives have a problem when a black queer person raps about their oppression. However the Irish talking about segregation- youβre not going to be able to push that down without being specifically factional. You utter ghouls

Iran strike on hospital is 'criminal' - Israeli minister Israel's deputy foreign affairs minister has called Iran's strike on Soroka Hospital "deliberate" and "criminal". Sharren Haskel, posting on X, says the site that was struck is "not a military base" but "a hospital", adding that this is the main medical centre for Israelβs entire Negev region. She also shares a video that appears to show damage inside the hospital. "The world must speak out," Haskel says.
Says well known hospital respecters
Brb, just trying to remember who was in government for the last 15 years
New Yorkers scream out each officerβs lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.
There is a world where I don't have to watch a nation get angry over the bombing out civilian areas while they bomb civilian areas, and I'm much less tired in it.
Only stopped by everywhere else deciding to hamstring their university sector in a doomed attempt to appease stupid bigots
Chart showing Annual impact of changes to PIP and Universal Credit, by family characteristics: UK, 2029-30 Losses will fall on those who no longer qualify for PIP daily living, who will be Β£3,700 worse off in 2029-30 (in 2024-25 prices) if they are receiving the standard rate or Β£5,700 worse off if they receive the enhanced rate; those who lose Carerβs Allowance because someone they care for no longer qualifies for PIP, who will be Β£4,300 worse off; and those who claim UC after April 2026 and receive the new lower UC-H rate, who will lose Β£2,400. Current recipients of UC-H will have that element frozen from 2026, meaning they will lose Β£210 by 2029-30. The biggest losses could hit couples with a disabled member and somebody who cares for them full-time.
The announced changes to disability benefits will lead to very substantial falls in income for some families.
While some families will gain a small amount from the changes, others will lose thousands of pounds a year.
I certainly wouldn't want to risk being seen as supporting baby killers and mass murderers
Two years in a row of the UK Eurovision audiences rating Israel the best in show. Interesting.

Spectator doing the family guy meme I see. (Obviously not surprised)
The inherent racism in that snippet, when I guarantee the spectator has had zero regard for the lives "ruined" by rioters in London around police brutality. Sycophantic.
Many young children are afraid of the dark, therefore we should ensure we tell every child the darkness is a very bad thing that will only harm them. This will make them more comfortable with darkness.
