And how many “minimum wage” jobs nowadays are actually full time?

Most of them that I see advertised are pro-rata advertised. Under houred or zero contract. But of course if you take two jobs you’ll eventually end up with rota clashes and lose one of those jobs. So good luck there.

Starmer wont condem it …

Still fucking better than actively supporting. Shameful politics in the UK right now. Absolutely disgusting.

Just plonking this here for ease of conversation.

Reading the article it seems more that Labour and Cons are both more scared of OEUK (offshore energies UK) than anything else.

A lot of the farming and hunting community are annoyed at the current state of gun laws. People who do actually use the limited range of guns in the UK for legitimate uses have to wade through paperwork, fees, wasted time and inconsistent rules to continue owning a gun. It’s also hard to be sure that you are actually complying with the law, because it’s so inconsistently applied to people.

For those that care about gun ownership, “cutting the red tape” is an easy win. Cutting the red tape and not making a complete hash of it all, that is going to be hard.

It’s very true that what this party needs is clear, committed leadership. A direction to drive in that instills faith in the currently lost part of the voter pool.

One of the first orders of business is to choose a name for the party. It’ll be going to a vote of party members.
