like cost of living, membership of europe, etc

2019-10-03 20:44:35 UTC  

ok, and how do you propose we do that when everyone else is fucking reeing

2019-10-03 20:44:44 UTC  

and that perrennial favourite "where the fuck are we going to get all the electricity from?"

2019-10-03 20:44:53 UTC  

> ok, and how do you propose we do that when everyone else is fucking reeing

2019-10-03 20:45:32 UTC  

how does questioning things there is a majority consensus for over decades, help the reeee situation exactly?

2019-10-03 20:45:38 UTC  

if you succeed it just increases the ree

2019-10-03 20:46:03 UTC  

by making them increasingly more insufferable

2019-10-03 20:46:11 UTC  

Stop doing that, wladfa. Just because someone respond to a point doesn't mean yo have to keep repeating it untl they do

2019-10-03 20:46:50 UTC  

theyre stuck in a loop at the moment, the issues almost don't matter at all - parliament is in stalemate with a party unable to act, and several others who only want to talk about how to remove it and install themselves. and thats where we are

2019-10-03 20:47:08 UTC  

@juryrigging that's the first time i reposted for someone to reply to a thing - the other times I was highlighting different parts

2019-10-03 20:47:53 UTC  

@system11 yes, and we can't move on, i'm talking about a situation where we're stuck in a constant loop

2019-10-03 20:48:00 UTC  

we would need to do something to end the loop

2019-10-03 20:48:30 UTC  

if your question is how do we make the politicians sane, short of massive protests and civil disobedience which people just aren't into these days when theyre focused on paying the bills and not rocking the boat, there is nothing we can do until they allow us an election

2019-10-03 20:48:31 UTC  

and pulling something that is a feather in their cap and bitch slapping it might bring them back to the table

2019-10-03 20:48:45 UTC  

i'm not asking a question

2019-10-03 20:48:58 UTC  

i'm proposing a political action by them in order to move forward

2019-10-03 20:49:08 UTC  

I think i was pretty clear about that but I apologise if I wasnt

2019-10-03 20:49:55 UTC  

ok, your suggestion was to re-open a pointless but potentially incendiary debate to get them talking again?

2019-10-03 20:50:20 UTC  

not just to get them talking again, but to bring them back to sanity

2019-10-03 20:50:29 UTC  

as I said, I agree with the current position of the law

2019-10-03 20:50:38 UTC  

but there are still arguments that exist that are valid

2019-10-03 20:51:26 UTC  

i dont see how that will add any sanity, it will just be another thing for them to pointlessly bicker about, even if you had the power to make parties talk about a new subject. which you don't, and they don't want to anyway, because it's all about trying to bring down boris.

2019-10-03 20:52:19 UTC  

well that and killing brexit. the whole debate around political language is just them trying to score points against boris

2019-10-03 20:52:49 UTC  

they want to get rid of him because they know theyll lose the election if he's still there

2019-10-03 20:53:29 UTC  

So here's the thing, if one were to inject some bullshit like this as an amendment into a bill that was going to be rushed

2019-10-03 20:53:30 UTC  

everything else is pantomime and point scoring to support the anti-brexit anti-boris cause of the combined left, or the 'get it done' from whats left of the tories

2019-10-03 20:53:54 UTC  

then 1: it would cause people to need to make real arguments rather than just party politics

2019-10-03 20:54:17 UTC  

you have no influence whatsoever, i have no influence whatsoever, and the only people who do (including media) are just 100% absorbed by brexit/boris. and until someone loses that's what you're getting

2019-10-03 20:54:40 UTC  

right, so lets just shut this whole channel down then

2019-10-03 20:54:51 UTC  

because none of us have no influence

2019-10-03 20:55:01 UTC  

or is this a place to discuss ideas of what could be done

2019-10-03 20:55:17 UTC  

you had an idea and i explained why i think it wont work

2019-10-03 20:55:27 UTC  

there, we discussed

2019-10-03 20:56:10 UTC  

and your last one was on how "you have no influence whatsoever"

2019-10-03 20:56:43 UTC  

which is an entirely moronic idea, because it suggests that in the end, we have no influence so we should just stop talking

2019-10-03 20:57:39 UTC  

there, now we've discussed

2019-10-03 20:58:06 UTC  

people often talk about things they cannot change

2019-10-03 20:58:21 UTC  

it's actually a very effective way of psychologically managing it

2019-10-03 20:58:23 UTC  

right, so was the comment just for the sakes of?

2019-10-03 20:58:47 UTC  

actually if you have bags of money apparently you can buy the supreme court now, that might be something

2019-10-03 20:59:05 UTC  

I do not I'm afraid
