It's like a very defiant ostrich with a sandpit

in it's hour of desperate need

BXP seems to think that it might actually not hinder the tories, and in fact help by taking votes off Labour

Except we can point to Portsmouth where the existence of the brexit party landed a conservative leaning leave area with a libdem

Yes, but I've heard Farage saying that the opposite has also happened, I think during the 2015 election with UKIP?

apparently my constituency pays 11.57x the average local wage on new build property

The Green Party is proposing to fund its key pledge by increasing government borrowing by £91bn a year.

The remaining £9bn will come from tax changes, including an increase in corporation tax to 24%.

bruh

so it took 10yrs of tory austerity to fix the deficit... and they want to take it back to square one... okie dokie

and tbh .. i dont think the deficit is even fixed yet

2009 hit a peak of 11.2%

oh wow.. they actually did it... https://www.ukpublicspending.co.uk/spending_chart_1940_2019UKb_17c1li011lcn_H0t_UK_Deficit_Since_World_War_II

tories managed to pull it off... somehow

is that deficit per year or net deficit?

says "current budget deficit"

that old.... "tories cut nhs funding" trope... vs actual figures https://www.ukpublicspending.co.uk/spending_chart_1940_2019UKb_17c1li011lcn_10t

its weird that they use NHS... these figures would be much more impactful ... and actually true https://www.ukpublicspending.co.uk/spending_chart_1940_2019UKb_17c1li011lcn_20t

on education

lol... yeah... better not be part of any cult.... https://twitter.com/thetimes/status/1191717303915708417?s=20

Of course comrade Corbyn doesn’t have to provide any proof to this claim that the conservatives are going to sell NHS to America

ressmoggresign is trending

JRM said nothing wrong

Britts, I gotta ask, what do they teach you guys about Thomas Paine?

If anything

I never heard of him until I did my own research

Oh

Opinion?

I own a book of his, though

Lol, and I own das kapital lol

Yet to read it. Still half way through On Liberty. After that I'll read Rights of Man

Oh

In America our curriculum on the founding fathers borders on ancestral worship lmao

Well, a very vocal minirotiy

Muh ancestry

Nah

It's just an interesting thing we do here
