The whole reason nothing got done for the past 3 years by govt was literally because all of the opposition parties worked together to frustrate the tories who held a minority government, and even when they had a few seats majority those few seats would make demands (both remainers and leavers)
That info is well out of date autumn
It's 2010
Of the 59 seats I think 48 are SNP, 3-4 are lib dems, and the rest are tories
I was posting it in reference to "Historically these places were Labour though"
@juryrigging wa'eva bro. I wasn't hatin on him..it was just jestin okay 🙂
If we cut Scotland that means tories would lose 7 seats, but the opposition would lose 52
From a strategic point of view thats a win
Fucking politicians. TV has caused this 'celebrificating' of the cunts. They are fucking civil servants nothing more.
Even so, Labour is strictly English. Cutting off parts of the kingdom doesn't help keep them down
Also we have to factor in Scotland is quite literally a blackhole for money, England basically subsidises Scotland both directly (through the Barnett Formula) and through the EU (the money we give the EU gets sent back to Scotland primarily with caveats)
Also if England withdraws its current contracts from Scotland they will lose approx half of their main industry (ship building)
Look at the grief that the poitical class is causing for the citizens of France. Soon the guillotines will be rolled out.. I mean there's only so much tear gas the population can take. ..
What peeps don't realise is the MoD contracts scottish shipyards to maintain the navy and trident, if they go it will just be moved to newcastle (meaning they will stay tory as well), AND they will have to fund their own army
And frankly they couldn't afford the half a dozen Scottish units that already exist
Honestly if Scotland leaves they will fail as a nation, they don't have the economy or the population (5.5 million) to have any say in the world and even if the EU let them in they will have around 6 seats there as matching the other EU nations instead of the 59 they have in the UK <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>
As for labour you will never win London and it is basically capital versus the country, they have a few hold outs up north such as liverpool which are red till they die and south wales
"We need to be able to sell the national park to everybody in Britain, all society, and it's important that it doesn't just become exclusive to one single use group," he said. "The moment we get into that position I think national parks start to lose their relevance and therefore the very reason for calling it a national park and spending public money." **Research shows visitors to the Lake District, where the rugged fells inspired the romantic poets and author Beatrix Potter, are too heavily weighted towards older, able-bodied white people.**
"Africa is too black"
"we must stand for pride in our communities"
but not the white ones.
"Millions woke up to a nightmare on December 13. It’s our duty to make sure that doesn’t happen again."
Make sure that the Tories don't win a democratic election again? Okay, fascist.
Can I just present my favorite article of the day?
I hope it displays the article.
Hots up.
“progressive patriotism”
What does Progressive Patriotism even mean?
I would assume it is taking certain qualities of your nation like tolerance, religious freedoms etc, then bludgeoning them into politcal slogans you can use to advance your political goals, while hiding behind the fact that those are qualities your country possesses
Progressive patriotism is a fancy way of saying “we’re going to pretend to be and co opt nationalism to distract real nationalists and control them so they aren’t harmful”
Or “get in our way”
Progressive patriotism might mean lecturing your fellow citizens on how great it would be to join a borderless, global superstate because they're clearly not big-brain enough to surrender their individuality for the greater good of the human collective
so poms is the UK still a salt mine?
Very much so
well, social media is
and news media
