or... not down.. below target...
up 1.7%
signifies less chance of a rate hike
That sounds OK to me
And Con's still short by those polls
The Brexit party is only 11% at the poles?, WHAT!
Sounds about right
I thought they would be well ahead of everyone else.
Why?
Look at what both labour and the conservitives are doing, they are a laughing stock.
Cons kind of pulled the rug out from under them @Great Britain with BoJo's recent drive to do what people voted for.
Boris is the figure that everyone is watching.
And he is getting the sympathy when parliament and the opposition screw him over
Also, the first past the post system kinda guarantees hegemony for the 2-party system
Boris is doing ok, I like how he is fighting for his position and trying to get brexit done right
But he isnt one of us
parties are gay anyways
but inevitable
@Great Britain maybe not, but he's walking like a duck and quacking like a duck so he's duck enough for most people
inevitable in this sort of system
He isnt addressing the bigger issues such as the cause of all this knife crime, the male suicide rates and our low birth rates as well as the issue of mass immigration.
He has proposed in the queens speech a move to a points-based system
With FPTP is all tactical voting and voting for people with “close enough goals”
I want to vote for UKIP but if I do it’s very likely that my vote will just go to waste
I live in an area where the Tories polled >50% last election, so I have some fredom
Didnt have time to watch the queens speech
You don't need to, you can read the transcript
What is this points based system?
I don't know the details and likely it hasn't been published yet
But they were using Australia as a model
I would imagine the idea is that you require x-points to qualify, and points are given for desired skills, language etc
I know the immigration is pretty bad over there as well
I guess the idea is to only allow the immigrants with skills in.
Rather then having a accept **everyone** and hope they are doctors and scientists in there
Basically
Right, but we still have a huge amount of worl to do already
Look at london
"London is a shithole" PJW
Most metropolises are
These days
It's areas of high population density
No, always
It's a quality inherent to dense populations
