  • Thank you for linking this. I’ve looked at every instance of “transport” in the document and it’s almost all about maintaining and renewing current infrastructure. Which is good, of course, but nowhere does it seem to talk about affordability. In the part where it talks about how they’re going to decarbonise the UK in regards to transport, again it just seems to talk about pushing for electric cars.

    Correct me if I’m wrong and have missed things though. I’d be pleased to see that they’re actually going to make public transport affordable. It’s good to make what’s there better and expand it. But if most people still aren’t able to use it and having a car is cheaper, it’s not going to have nearly the outcome it should






  • I mean, that’s pretty damn queer-centric don’t you think? The actual and potential victims of fascism go way beyond just queer people. And there’s plenty flags, both now and historically, that are linked to antifascism. Most of them aren’t red, white and black

    Plus I’ve always found the progress pride flag kinda ugly, but that’s just personal. As a queer person who’s into vexillology, a fair few of our flags have that problem. It’s also been used by so many capitalists to falsely give themselves the appearance of being egalitarian


  • This is fucking awful. Such a terrible, out of nowhere death

    Have to say aswell, after reading the article, how stupid is his boss who gave him it? He was involved in the whole meth operation with these cans and decided to give away the excess ones that he thought only had beer in them. Why not just throw them away? Such an idiotic risk for no good reason. Was he high on the supply or something? Only thing I can think to explain why he’d do something as utterly careless as this. And now he’s in prison for 20 years because of it


  • I’m from the countryside in north of England and have lived in London at points for many years of my life. London is generally the worst for proper British food, in my experience. The best fry ups, fish and chips and all that you’re gunna get is in small towns or villages where the place itself is bare bones and no frills. Far cheaper too

    That said, I’ll of course take most other cuisine over our own. I do like foods that require a good amount of seasoning and some actual spice. Our cuisine is really helped by those too as I see it. But most people here seem to draw the line at black pepper, sadly



  • Mate can you actually read? I replied to your comment to push back against you expecting Greta to be standing up on a platform and immediately talking about all of this stuff to the world when she’s going to be very traumatised. And that she would be whether what the article says is true or not. That’s it. Nothing else

    My whole point has been about that, not about the article and it’s accuracy. The only times I’ve said anything about the latter is cos you keep somehow not understanding that I’m not talking about the accuracy of the article and bringing it back up again. And even then the only thing I really said in response to that was pushing back against you saying The Canary is niche when it actually isn’t really. And also telling you to read it, seeing as you clearly hadn’t from what you’ve said in replies. You didn’t understand entirely what you were arguing against in the article and now you’re not understanding my point at all and have somehow gone off thinking I’m saying things that I’m not


  • If you can’t understand why someone wouldn’t go out in front of the world and make big statements in line with these claims, or any statement at all, immediately after a very traumatising experience then you really need to work on your empathy and understanding of basic human emotion. I understand your skepticism, to a point. I just gave a very obvious reason why she hasn’t talked about the harrowing things she went through in detail to the public straight away, whether they are as is said in this article or not. Even thinking about them is going to be very difficult for her, nevermind doing what you’re expecting

    Edit: Taken out a sentence that isn’t relevant, as I thought you were the OP of this comment thread before
