A chat thread for those who don't like this Labour government. 🥀

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Another 1,085 migrants arrived so far this week (boats)

I’m honestly trying to avoid the news at the moment. When is it ever going to be stopped? I can’t imagine many are ever going to be deported as they get rid of ID.

I must have missed that one! Sounds like the Wild West out there.

Yeh nuts long screed of AI text / rubbish on a specific poster which others saying yeh great.

I know people can’t link to threads but could someone maybe tell me what section it’s in please?

I shouldn’t really be looking, but I can’t concentrate on work today because we are having a big issue in my block of flats. Mostly trying not to bother the repair guys while they work. Well repair guy singular, he’s definitely going to need reinforcements though!

Interested in this thread?

I wonder if they can do drone surveillance ? Now we are under tremendous threats like never before can't the army use drone surveillance ?

Yes, in theory.

But it requires political will

As others have posted up thread, Labour like large amounts of illegal immigrants as these people become their voters once they start claiming benefits. Plus it provides jobs for human rights lawyers … some of whom become Labour MPs

This new tactic of posters using AI re other posters is nuts isn’t it. Ik someone mentioned it below but seeing it in action, what a load of garbage. And a bit sad to resort to it.

I can see the n/c point made now.

Its disturbing, really gives me the creeps. I've emailed MN to ask about this as its being weaponised. Not sure what they can do, but thought I'd ask for their thoughts.

Yes I realise all that but drones are surely an easy way to manage our shores ! It's crazy !
We are being told we are under threats and yet unvetted people are slipping in and they still come in lorrys

The dinghy slashing incident is gathering at hyperbolic speed. Divert and distract.

Ok, I haven't seen those.
I haven't reported the post, I just asked MN about the practice in general, and pointed to the post being discussed as an example.

What's this about AI posts????

Posters using AI to search info on usernames. @AndyKitten can explain it much better than I can.
Have a look at Coventry's thread, you'll see what I mean.

I haven’t, I don’t like reporting because I think posts have to stay so they can be seen.

Anyway, it would be nice to see what MN think about it

Thanks. It just looks sloppy and creepy, plus takes up bandwidth on rubbish.

I'm still awaiting a reply from MN as to why they deleted my post yesterday.

You'll have to PM me th Pro smoking link can't find that thread.

God yes that Susan Hall clip. Male arrogance and lack of care for women and girls in a nutshell.

I find it extremely uncomfortable viewing with Khan in front of the London Assembly. The misogyny he displays towards Emma Best is disgusting.

I had my last fag on 12 September 1991. Some days I really want that feeling off striking a match and inhaling, so wouldn’t need much more encouragement living in these shitty times.

I've found an article on worldwide IQ rates. Also an explanation as to why some countries are lower. Nutrition and education being the theory.

"Average IQ by Country 2026" https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/average-iq-by-country

Interesting that this article is allowed to stand (so presumably isn't disputed).

But my comment on the contents - and a frankly obvious conclusion from it - is not.
