Is this a joke?

This has to be a joke, right?

Have these morons learned nothing from the past 20 years?

That may well be the case, but that's not why water bills are up.

For a decade people complained that utility bills were too high, so Ofwat put water bills down in real terms. Then people started complaining about dirty rivers, so Ofwat doubled capex and bills ended up higher.

Slowly but surely, a state can repress its people. Why is the UK channelling Viktor Orbán’s Hungary? | Lydia Gall I know enough about the erosion of civil rights to fear what I now see in the UK. Britons should understand how this ends, says Lydia Gall of Human Rights Watch

Your reminder that the Guardian actively campaigned for the takeover of the Labour Party by its authoritarian right wing, and then campaigned just as hard to get them into government. #cakeism #hypocrisy #liberalmedia

The paradox of French power France has a very weak government with an uncertain future, yet it remains a dominant force in EU policy-making. How does one explain this paradox?

This is what was linked in the blocked post.
They don't talk about the fact that UK is the vulnerable party due to its old faschinoed election system & oligarch-controlled media, Londongrad & or that KS is as popular as Macron, & has no funds.
But its the Frenc & EU, not UK #cakeism.

#Cakeism alive and well here - “we want all of these things but we’re not willing to accept the compromises (ie. loss of private vehicle storage in public space) to make it happen”

On giving UK access to EUs SAFE instrument, which its arms industry will benefit immensely from, its of cause fair that the UK also pay in to get the benefits. That is how things works.
But #cakeism still hunts No 10 & Westminster.

Oh no, you set fire to your own house shouting “sovereignty!” and now you’re upset the neighbours won’t lend you a couch? Tragic. Truly the victim here. #cakeism 🍰🔥

But the EU quite rightly aren’t having it as they don’t like #cakeism 😏 We should stop tinkering around the edges and just apply to #rejoin the bloc!

It needed the publication of Prof Wendy Alexander's written evidence* to the Education, Children and Young People Committee regarding the #DundeeUni crisis for me to learn my #WordOfTheDay

The phrase "have your cake and eat it" definitely required a noun 😂

See an example 👇

Which, taken by itself, is not a totally inconceivable outcome. US goods imports are (were) over 3trn annually.
But...
A declared aim of the policy is to replace foreign with domestic production.
And, at the same time, a goal is to negotiate tariffs back down again as part of trade deals.

#cakeism is rightly not allowed and as we all know by now, in #Brexit Britain we don’t in fact hold all the cards 🤡

The EU must reinvent itself... or die World peace cannot be safeguarded without the making of creative efforts proportionate to the dangers which threaten it.

🚨🚨 #brexit: I also took a closer look on Nick Clegg's contested piece on the future of the European Union. I share concerns voiced by other observers here on the style of the piece which oozes of self-assured British arrogance and #cakeism. Brief 🧵 observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

Will EU enlargement create new models for the EU-UK relationship? Enlargement is pushing the EU to think creatively about how to work more closely with candidate countries before accession. The consequences for EU-UK relations could be significant.

"Will EU enlargement create new models for the EU-UK relationship?"

No.

Single Market without all four freedoms (including freedom of movement) is not Single Market. Nor is selective alignment with EU rules.

Such associate membership of the EU is meaningless.

When will you remove Bob Lambert's articles from your website, or at least amend the contributor biography of him which does not mention that he was an abuser who deceived women into having sex with him?

Never, I'm guessing. #cakeism

Not at all sure we have, when you read the quote above.

Fact is nobody can explain, despite the fantasies, *how* Britons could be European citizens and Brexit.

Keir Starmer is setting himself for the same failures as Theresa May mirroring her already tried & failed #Cakeism approach.

We voted to GTTO to end their policies, not honor their legacy.

The UK must #Rejoin; it is the Will of the People alive today.

I thought their money had already quit the UK to live in off-shore banks!?
We all know they use loopholes to avoid paying taxes anyway, and many of them have already decamped to lower tax countries, while still benefiting from British citizenship and the strong passport that comes with it.

The Johnson response to #COVID19 - despite the excellent scientific and medical advisors - comes off a little like another round of #cakeism here:

"Royal Welsh: No guarantee from May on farm cash after Brexit." Wales voted for Brexit, but doesn't want to lose its farm subsidies, which were protected because they came from the EU. #cakeism https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-44959630

If this is all the government has for its Brexit white paper, we're in trouble The Brexit white paper is full of muddled thinking, desperation and fantasy. It is alarming that this is all they've got.

"Having your cake and eating it" is de meest veelzijdig benaderde metafoor in de geschiedenis, met dank aan #brexit. Bij deze weer een fascinerende benadering van #cakeism:
