The hatred for the white poppy exposes the hypocrisy of the red poppy police - it's an admittance that for them the main aspect of the day is military jingoism; not solemn remembrance of the dead.
You know @ZackPolanski you could have just wore the red Poppy and left the virtue signalling one at home today right?

Nothing describes the state of the UK better than the privatised national telecoms company making a cool £2 billion out of literally stripping the copper wiring out of the wall, in the same year that it laid off over 11,000 people.
Not only that. The privatised telecoms companies are making money from selling off all the copper that was originally paid for by the state when the grid was constructed. Outrageous legalised plunder

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes people owning RAM is wasteful, and that it belongs in data centers instead. "From a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everyone have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer."

Just two things: 1. Renewed strike action across the NHS would hit electives too. and cost much more than offering a credible pay award. 2. If this is true, and I take it with a pinch of salt, then you simply can’t afford to reach the targets; you’re demanding staff pay for it.

Bob has low income and has strep throat. There is £4 in his account until payday. GP prescribes antibiotics. Bob claims low income free prescriptions, takes the antibiotics and gets better. Free prescriptions then get scrapped. Bob gets strep throat again. This week has £3.

Frankly I'm just glad we're finally having a conversation on where most welfare actually goes (spoiler alert it's not the demographics most of the media want you to think it is)

What hits me about the Lesbian Bar is that the outrage weirdos aren't protesting bars without mask mandates. They antagonize and abuse this particular bar owner bc they can access her and bc she cares. They are sending a message that no one should ever even try to appease them.
