  Nowadays you “died doing a tiktok challenge” and then your parents launch a legal case against tiktok to lend credence to their story

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Government on track to lower minimum age for train drivers to 18 in Great Britain⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Is driving a train actually harder than a car? More specialised, sure, but my impression is that you’d just need to be able to take signals, operate communications and work the throttle

  From what I gather, MI6 actually want it there because right now, the Chinese embassy is spread across London in various different buildings. The new embassy would have them all in one place

  What toxicity? You could try standing up to them potentially

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alton Towers bans people with anxiety from using disability pass⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There is. I’ve known a few people personally in fact who were from places like Iran who had entered the UK legally, and then their personal situation changed and they couldn’t return home, thus they applied for asylum. And got accepted as well.

  I also want to stop the boats and the exploitative gangs doing this, but any approach that isn’t opening up safe and legal routes for applications to be made is just advocating for everyone else to bear the burden of global instability the UK played a disproportionate role in creating.

  Sounds like we’re more in agreement than disagreement then?

  I assume you mean there hasn’t. I think it’s a pretty apt way to describe a mob descending on a hotel to try and burn it down because asylum seekers are inside.

  No? There has. People in the UK have attacked migrant hotels and even a few got attacked in Larne a while ago during the summer.

  Is it much worse than the rest of Europe? Basically every european country seems to have a populist right wing anti immigration movement

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alton Towers bans people with anxiety from using disability pass⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of people probably could be rehabilitated through either rehab programmes or adequate mental health support. Possibly the majority if not all.

  it doesn’t come anywhere close to the exploitation that the ruling class subject us to.

  Facts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alton Towers bans people with anxiety from using disability pass⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not anti asylum seeker. I’m anti people taking advantage of the system for legitimate asylum seekers. There are people coming over from France. France isn’t that bad. Also in addition, there’s been attempted pogroms here.

  I can’t remember the statistic, but the majority of asylum seekers don’t even come over in small boats. They’re typically legal immigrants who cannot return home or extend their visa. I’m talking about the widely condemned human trafficking industry that takes advantage of our system to make a business of bringing people across the channel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alton Towers bans people with anxiety from using disability pass⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The truth is in the middle. I know someone who works in the hospital, a lot of the rough sleepers they come across aren’t really helping themselves nor extremely interested in actually getting help. Some people do just take advantage of the system as in our culture we tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. This is why people come over in small boats from France, because they see our empathy as something to be taken advantage of. And it works for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Railway police abandon two-hour bike theft investigation rule after backlash⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  From what I know about shoplifters, usually it’s the same pool of people per city who just keep getting slaps on the wrist. If we just locked them up for longer sentences and maybe get them some form of rehabilitation/reintegration course in prison, then the city would run out of bike thieves.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Railway police abandon two-hour bike theft investigation rule after backlash⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If they’re having that much issue with catching people or a large amount of them, then harsher penalties are needed as a deterrence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is Minecraft able to be forced to put restrictions on online servers, but web browsers aren't held accountable for providing access to the web?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think Minecraft is accountable - they are just being controlling for no reason. Minecraft was fine for the past 15 years of it’s existence and people kind of just accepted that 2b2t doesn’t represent Minecraft or Microsoft as a whole

  They shouldn’t be barred. We’re a free country, have freedom of speech. Students should be allowed to debate them and everything, just like how labour, libdem, tory, green, snp, sinn fein, etc should be allowed to speak on campuses.

  Getting cancer treatment for an animal is a bit ridiculous. Whenever one of my pets had cancer, I did just opt for euthanasia. It was sad of course but that’s life.
