You go and do that then

Being cannon fodder for a government who doesn’t give a fuck about you? Yeah, sounds… great!

About fucking time
- Comment on Homeless people should not be arrested just if they smell - minister 2 months ago:
Police and courts are already massively understaffed and the government wants to make being homeless illegal. Genius move from genius former minister Braverman
- Comment on Oxford becomes UK’s electric bus capital as 159 vehicles join fleet 5 months ago:
If the stupid LTNs wouldn’t lead to all the remaining accessible main roads being completely blocked half the day, these new busses would actually be nice. As it is now they’re just stuck on St Clements like everybody else
- Comment on The kiwi fruit sold as "red kiwi" 6 months ago:
I think those look sick. Do they taste a bit like strawberries?
- Comment on NHS waiting list could hit 9 million in two years after Hunt offers no new money 7 months ago:
They are just piling on the bullshit, then labour will have to sort it out (assuming they’re actually going to try), people will be annoyed after a year because “nothing has changed” and then vote Tories back into office. Rinse and repeat
- Comment on Truss-supporting economists call for minimum wage to be frozen, then cut 7 months ago:
First time I came to England before moving here there were still the small, fat pound coins. When I came back a few years ago I thought I was experiencing some weird Mandela effect

Sorry but that just sounds dumb. Unless you’re living off dried and tinned food?

People with central London jobs, hopefully
- Comment on "New long-term plan" to "put the brakes on anti-car measures:" Sunak vows to stop 20mph zones and review LTNs 8 months ago:
Absolutely. It’s still stupid because this also means that travelling by bus is basically impossible during peak traffic (i.e., when people have to go to work and would maybe consider taking the bus there). That only leaves going by bike, which is not pleasant in bad weather and as soon as you have to leave the city, you need a car
- Comment on UK welfare budget could be cut to pave way for tax cuts, says Jeremy Hunt 8 months ago:
Of course. The UK is so fucked. You need to start producing something of value in this country, where is all this new money supposed to come from? You can’t keep cutting social spending indefinitely. Why not embrace the reality of a rapidly worsening climate and start producing technology for renewable energy here? It could create so many jobs. The UK is still an innovation powerhouse. If life keeps getting worse though, educated people will not only stop coming here but start to leave. Then there will be nothing left here
- Comment on "New long-term plan" to "put the brakes on anti-car measures:" Sunak vows to stop 20mph zones and review LTNs 8 months ago:
Here in Oxford at least, LTNs have been poorly planned and while side streets aren’t being used to go from one main street to the other, it has resulted in all the traffic being pushed effectively into two main roads, in one area onto one. What this has done is create absolute gridlock traffic at least twice a day, concentrating all of the pollution and forcing LTN residents to drive further than before just to get out of their respective streets. It’s absolutely bonkers. Sunak like the rest of these Tory idiots can go disappear in a hole for all I care but I would definitely welcome a reversal of this LTN nonsense.
That being said, reverting traffic-calming measures just for the sake of being a reactionary Tory and opposing “the green agenda” or whatever they’re calling it is still profoundly stupid

- Comment on Nadine Dorries formally resigns as MP after 11-week delay 10 months ago:
Tory not doing the job she’s being paid for is throwing a tantrum when told she can’t be paid for a job she isn’t doing. Brilliant. These are the same people that whinge about communism and want to stop paying people benefits. Rich people shouldn’t be allowed to be MP
