Hey, I don’t particularly like Oasis either but there’s no need to be a nob
- Comment on Public ownership of water in England and Wales is best way to improve industry, people’s commission finds 17 hours ago:
Yeah duh. Even if there’s no improvement in water quality at least our money won’t be going to shareholders and CEOs. Just that would be an improvement.

A true marvel of 20th Century engineering.

Drawing attention to the abuse of these powers is now terrorism. Please hand yourself in to your nearest police station for reeducation.
- Comment on Spectator openly shares its wet dream of mass-murdering people who oppose genocide 3 days ago:
Rod Liddle has always been a piece of shit and this is absolutely standard operating procedure for him.
Don’t forget that he ditched his wife and their young children, on their honeymoon, to instead shack up with a younger woman, who he later assaulted while she was pregnant.
- Comment on US Politicians praying inside the House of Representatives 3 days ago:
They likely believe they’re doing all this in God’s name even though it is entirely against the actual teachings of Jesus.
He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”
Luke 14:12-14

How about one night we smash the windows of Latino owned businesses so they know we really don’t want them.
- Comment on Tough new driving rules could land Brits with a ban for ‘minor’ mistakes 4 days ago:
They are, what has changed is the sentences you’re likely to get for doing them (and causing an accident or being caught by the police).
Instead of points and/or a fine, you’re likely to get a temporary driving ban instead.
Interestingly it seems they’ll punish commercial vehicle drivers like this as well which could easily result in losing your job if it’s required for work.
- Comment on Tough new driving rules could land Brits with a ban for ‘minor’ mistakes 4 days ago:
What this article is failing to mention is these new sentencing guidelines apply to people who have caused an accident through their careless driving.
I drive a commercial vehicle for work and while it would be a lie to say I’ve never been distracted behind the wheel (everyone is to varying degrees) but I see potentially serious accidents almost occur daily. From people cutting blind corners, driving in the middle of the road, phone in front of their face, phone glued to their ear, not looking or indicating at junctions and roundabouts.
Theres an epidemic of bad driving and we need more of this sort of low level punishment to make people think before they take that call or queue up a new song on Spotify.
- Comment on Every year for the last 40 years, France has built more homes per person than England. 4 days ago:
Median house price in France is €160,000 and in the UK it’s £297,000 ~ €350,000
Median salary in France is €23,280 and in the UK it’s £37,400 ~ €43,000
A house in France costs, on average, 6.87 times the average annual salary and in the UK it costs 8.14 times.
Caveat: all these numbers come from 2 minutes of googling figures so I do not vouch for their accuracy.

Even when it does directly affect them, they still won’t care because it affects the others worse.

- Comment on NHS in England told to slash recruitment of overseas-trained medics 4 days ago:
With the recent lurch to the right in this country, Labour sees becoming the conservatives as the key to election success, hence this current government essentially becoming David Camerons government. The tories have become reform and most bizzarely of all, with the exception of immigration, reform have pivoted so far round as to essentially have the same policy platform as the green party as a way to differentiate themselves from Badenoch and the tories.
Cutting winter fuel and cutting welfare and increasing defence spending are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to new

- Comment on Canadians are just too polite 1 week ago:
Canadian teams just seem to not want to win. With Toronto more concerned with shooting themselves in the foot the moment they reach the playoffs every year; Winnipeg, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa more concerned with cycles of more or less mediocrity; Edmonton who have to rely on 2 players to get them through you’re left with the Habs who can’t seem to get it together for long enough to make a real impact.
Canucks (my team) seem to be preoccupied with one more trade or one more overpaid free agent and we’ll squeak in but when that doesn’t work out they shit the bed again, just like this year and it’s looking worse the next with absolutely nothing in the cupboards (though the Calder cup win makes things look a little better). But we’re about to sabotage the career of the greatest player we’ve ever had because ownership refuses to have a genuine rebuild.

- Comment on Thames Water nationalisation prep 'stepped up', says government 2 weeks ago:
Socialise the losses, privatise the profits.
Nationalise it long enough that our tax money has to pay off the debts that were illegally accrued, none of the scumbags in charge will have any repercussions and they’ll buy it back for pennies on the pound in a decade and start the whole cycle again.
