Brexit happened because of them...grafician - The same with Trump, the same with far-right and populism in Europe.

This looks so surreal that I'm thinking it might even be fake. But I guess it's not.
- JVP protests in the US has far more extreme messages and no one gets arrested.Beeswax
- 15 years in jail is the max sentence they can get. Total farce. Imagine protesting a genocide? How crazy.PhanLo
- Labour have always been authoritarian freaks once they get in govt. Jack Straw showed his true colours and became a fucking demon.face_melter

So, I'll be in, uh ... *checks notes* ... Southampton for a week-long shoot from 4 to (probably) 8 August.
Which means the UK will be further fucked by my presence there.
Anyone know the place? Is there anything interesting to do on one's time off there, besides drinking, puking on the pavements, eating kebab, and puking on the pavements again?
Interesting galleries, exhibitions, events, and/or musea in particular.
- There's some puke art at the SMOcanoe
- SMOA geezer!canoe
- Go to the Isle of Wight. It's a short ferry ride and there's all manner of cultural shit and lovely landscape/beaches to wander around.Morning_star
- I don't know Southampton but you'll be near the New Forest and the Isle of Wight.Fax_Benson
- portsmouth has old galleons, the mary rose and hms victory (btw people who live there call southampton "scum", whereas southamptoners call portsmouth "skates")hans_glib
- (after the cheap fish)hans_glib
- like fax i don't know southampton, but i think it's like birmingham - a shithole that's close to lots of interesting places.hans_glib
- Fuck you hans. Birmingham's shithole status does not preclude it from being interesting. : )Morning_star
- Thanks gents! Hopefully I'll have time enough for a ferry ride.Continuity
- Mr. Worldwidepalimpsest
- Yup. Jetsetting to the cosmopolitan ... municipality ... of Southampton. I can absolutely understand if you're jelly right now. It's OK.Continuity
- You can get to the Hovercraft to the Isle of Wight, tbh the ferry is a lot more enjoyable but it is a novelty.webazoot
- Shanklin to Ventnor both inland or the coast path is a nice scenic walk. (Shaklins at the end of the train line over there.)webazoot
- flol @Morning_star, i knew someone would call me out. it is a total dump tho, be honest...hans_glib
- If only you were a week later, I’d suggest pop along to a Southampton home game and wave a Spurs scarf.MrT

"gives you an AI-generated mock driving licence for your MP based on public data. This is useful given the recent Online Safety Act would otherwise require you to send your ID to a foreign identity checking service, or send your internet traffic a dodgy foreign VPN. Here's a third option! Use a mock of your local MP's ID"

- lost count of the no. of these projects i've worked on - commercial units normally end up empty after the first year.face_melter
- useful amenities like surgeries and libraries have been melted into large, centralised, buildings normally long bus rides away from where folk live.face_melter
- ^ North America-style. Ugh.Continuity
- the problem is always the same.. they make mixed use, but the non residential part is prohibitively expensive and inaccessible to anyone that isnt a corporationautoflavour
- ^ So every development fills up with the same bullshit chains, and everything's the same, everything's generic, everything's synthetic. Watta woyld!Nairn
- and then the chain closes down because there is saturation, and then it remains empty for years . thanks capitalismautoflavour
