That's a question about the principle, not the proposal. Imagine if the question said "Should we reduce unemployment?" and the follow up was "If the government reintroduced military conscription, should it be 2 years or 3 years, or not sure?" Where is my option to disagree?

Another all time greatest UK government consultation moment. They ask me my opinion on downranking my own videos in the youtube algorithm in favour of established networks like BBC and ITV... and they don't give me the option to disagree!!

460,000 people played the test this weekend and I've tried to read every reply, but I've not seen a single person get Peter Thiel as their closest match. He's the only person in the pool that I haven't seen at least one person get.

Most political compass tests are stupid and outdated, so I have created a political test that only focuses on REAL ISSUES of the 2020s. 64 questions that score you on four axes, including "Chud v Woke" and "Techbro v Luddite" Reply with your results & tell me if it was accurate

Starmer didn't resign because of immigration, benefit cuts, online censorship, trans rights, housing, or anything else. It was because two years ago he tried to stop wealthy millionaire pensioners from getting a free £200 every year and the boomer class have never forgiven him.

Generations are mostly a fake concept, except when a historic event like WWII actually creates a stark dividing line in lived experience based on age. COVID was one of those events, and yet we're not allowed to change where the line is because of some Salon thinkpiece in 2016.

there’s a much harder and clearer difference between older zoomers and younger zoomers than there is between younger zoomers and all of gen alpha

The LibDems are like those puppet opposition parties in dictatorships that just say things like "the only problem with Supreme Leader is that we can't have twenty Supreme Leaders!!"

Families have been crying out for action to protect children from harmful social media – and we've worked with them to find a real solution. We are really worried that the government hasn't listened, and has instead come up with a half-baked policy that won't keep children safe.
