polishgenius Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Hey, why don't teachers strike while they're on holiday? That's how strikes work, right? Rippounet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) the bar for a damehood appears to be pretty low. Boris's Kryptonite (Pincher) might as well sack it off. He was going to go at the next election anyway, run off with your tail between your legs you fuck. Also a by-election in such a safe Tory seat will be an interesting barometer of truly how fucked they are. Edited July 6 by BigFatCoward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mormont Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 It's not that the Tories oppose the right to strike, or indeed protest. It's just that they would prefer if all such activity was done in your lunch hour, quietly, in a curtained alcove, for about five minutes, on your own.

My possibly faulty understanding is if Pincher leaves voluntarily, the by election will be much sooner, meaning splitting resources. Also, getting 10% of the electorate to sign a recall petition would be a hall ache, so he might style it out. There’s some movement of boundaries there too I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spockydog Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Young people, terrified for their futures: Whose side are you on, Keir? Starmer: I am on the side of economic growth. Security! Tory cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mormont Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Right now, the person most likely to replace Starmer is Wes Streeting. If that doesn't make you have warmer feelings towards Starmer, nothing will. Spockydog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spockydog Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 (edited) Starmer is just so fucking awful. Slowly but surely, people are coming to understand this. And as Mhairi said, people want change. We need change. Not just the same old stinking Tory policies, rebranded as Starmer's fucking 'missions.' Edited July 6 by Spockydog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just that there is a certain kind of small-souled impulse common in the right wing that the poors should never feel even the smallest moments of joy, but should always be acutely conscious of how unworthy they are. Like American right wing chuds who get upset when people on government assistance buy steak with EBT cards.

It's why they don't bat an eye when wealthy individuals or corporations get massive undeserving handouts, but hate when poor people get small amounts. They simply have no empathy for the latter because they don't want to identify with them and that's really the problem with conservatives, both in the US and UK. The lack of empathy for someone outside of your group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
