- The Tories only want Britain to be for the ultra 0.1% rich.Chimp
- well he's an easier target to attack than Ben Wallace, hopefully he wins but doubt it. Wallace is most popular with members and would win a GE easily.fadein11
- He’s like 5”, no shoulders thin body massive looking head. Very odd proportions.shapesalad
- I wasn't referring to his appearance.fadein11
- Wallace not running, deals have been made, Sunak it isfadein11

Wow.... economically totally fucked. Didn't know about all the foreign debt owe, suspected trade was bad due to brexit, but overall - what a mess.
- also been a big outflow of High Net Worth Individuals https://www.youtube.…shapesalad
- more than 1k left uk - net. So there's another hit to the tax coffers.shapesalad
- Those individuals were paying fuck all tax anyway, prove me wrong.BuddhaHat
- They'd be paying VAT on big ticket items.. luxury goods, restaurants etczardoz

- I flit between colours depending on my mood. Suffice to say, I think we expect and respect rules, largely based on consensus and precedent.Nairn
- There's not a lot of scope for radical 'libertarianism' as those people tend to be, frankly, rude and selfish, so we're 'authoritarian', I guess.Nairn
- Like much of Europe, perhaps? Hundreds of years of cramped space, trying to get along. Then you yankeedoodles fuck the equation with all 'your' space.Nairn
- /canucks,of course :) Although you guys tend to be a bit more European vs. Yankee individual exceptionalismNairn
- Basically, niko, it comes down to this (CA v UK):
Liberal Party = Labour
CPC = Conservatives/Tories
NDP = Liberal DemocratsContinuity - Parti québécois = Scottish Nation Party, Plaid Cymru, Sinn Fein
People's Party of Canada = UKIPContinuity - Ah got it thanks guys. Still not apples to apples as it seems most British parties are right of Centre? Or is that chart wrong?_niko
- From what I know of UK politics, that chart is pretty much off.Continuity
- yupfadein11

- Compared to socialism absolute, the right-wing bias is fairly correct, i think. Many, my partner included, have a weird idea about far-left politics.Nairn
- ..and its position in our day to day politics.Nairn
- how is 'green' libertarian? green is all about control of what you can do and not do.hotroddy
- it's bs hotroddy, see abovefadein11
- How the fuck is the BNP more left leaning than Labour and LibDems??!!Hayzilla
- grafician-1
- Nobody beating Boris' hairstyle for suregrafician
- Not to mention some of these muppets had campaigns ready to go the minute the guy went live on the tellygrafician
- Sunak is the obvious choiceChimp
- I doubt he has any idea how most people in the country live. Just another out of touch politician.Chimp
- i vote for kemihans_glib

- Considering how anti-immigration some of these are, their names would suggest they've benefitted from some migration. Liz Truss is a bellendIanbolton

Does this sort of thing happen where you live?
- Looks like they arrested these idiots. https://www.bbc.com/…Chimp
- Yes, because i live in Birmingham. BUT if you take that as a measure of the city or the country you're a moron. Besides, modern day Peaky Blinders innit.Morning_star
- I'm saying it more like, does this happen in Zadar, in Braga, in Plovdiv, in Kotor, in Gijón etc? I never see videos/news of such nonsense out of these places.shapesalad
- used to be armed robberies of jewellers near weekly when I worked in the Jewellery Quarter many years ago. Oh and fabulous curry houses down that road.fadein11
- Or is it just UK that has a large amount of mindless violence and criminal activity - of this level - in its cites and towns?shapesalad
- @shape, The cities/town you mention are low population less than 250k. Birmingham has a pop. of 1.2million, London 9million, Manchester 500K, You don't seem...Morning_star
- ...to be comparing like with like.Morning_star
- Leeds population 792,525 (219) so when you say 'large amounts' of mindless violence, I can't understand as I see literally none, except maybe a drunken fight.Ianbolton
- I've seen a robbery back home in Scunthorpe when i was younger, but it's never been an everyday experience - unless i watched the news 24hrs a dayIanbolton
- Yeah, ok population size sure.. but even small population Hull is a mess https://www.hulldail…shapesalad
- People you'd not want to meet in a dark alley https://www.hulldail…shapesalad
- ^ it's updated weekly... the number of braindead criminals is staggering, state of uk is terrifying if you get your head out of the tik tok fantasy.shapesalad
- How much did they manage to get in that daring raid? £300 in shite gold stuff? What? What? What? What? What? What?PhanLo
- @phan, asian jewellery can be insanely expensive. And often sold in crappy looking shops like that. There are shit loads of them just down that road.fadein11
- @Fadein11 can confirm. Insanely expensive stuff.
@shape. I don’t understand what makes you so fearful. Do you really believe the UK’s so dangerous?Morning_star - the opening scene to Fish called Wanda?hotroddy
- Last place I was in before lockdown was an Islamic Arts Centre in Brum. I remember Bobo always going on about no-go areas like a dafty. Folk were sound.PhanLo
- @Fade I imagine, to take that risk, there must have been some value, but it looked like such an unassuming shop.PhanLo

Just leased a place in Camden for my daughter. Hope it’s not too fucked there
- She’s doing her masters’ in London this fallGnash
- Just don't ask Shapesalad... .
Camden's alright. Just expensive, abit grotty and a shadow of a shadow of its former former self.Nairn - She's obviously got you around her little finger - you didn't want to try somewhere a little further out, or is your bank balance ok these days? ;)Nairn
- Good old coffee roasters there, guy is like 85 or something. Also good Portuguese store for pastries.shapesalad
- Camden is a bit rough around the edges but it's fine. Plus you have Primrose Hill near by.Chimp
- Haha nairn, maybe a littleGnash
- camden is a total tourist/ne'er-do-wel... shithole in the middle, but oddly the edges are ok.hans_glib
- Near Mornington Crescent tube. school is in Bloomsbury areaGnash
- Bloomsbury's quite posh, and I imagine if she's part of the set there, that's where she'll spend her time. Mornington's fine - 5/10 mins walk from Camden properNairn
- For next time, you could've gone anywhere north of Kings Cross that's near the Piccadilly or Victoria Lines and saved yourself a few bob ;)Nairn
- I'm curious to know how much my daughter will have me around her little finger when she's at that sort of an age. i've got a wee while to prepare / die.Nairn
- Lol, next time for sure. And yes, start saving :)Gnash
- I've got a few friends in Camden and been out drinking there a few times. Think it's easy to see the bits to avoid, but generally good. Please don't die Nairn!Ianbolton
