Is it too far gone now?

It would make it easier because you could in theory ensure the countries runways were lined up with the wind. Also it would be rotating quite slowly as a rule so shouldn't make it that much harder to land I imagine. I guess Birmingham would be spinning less fast than saying Cornwall though.

Good point. Okay, I'm very much on board with this. Turn the UK round!

What can’t / won’t the police do?

Believe a dying man who has told them he has been stabbed!

I think what this poster means is they’d like to go back to more police brutality and overt discrimination toward black and brown people. More stop and search, more casual beatings, that sort of thing. Bit like Soweto in the 1970s.

Sounds like projection to me

Do you feel the same about sign language?

Don't be ridiculous. A profojndly deaf person cannot learn to speak English. Someone from another country can.

I think the UK has an awful lot of problems right now and the government seems to be burying it's head in the sand a bit over things. It's going to reach a tipping point soon with some bad consequences to come. It's not too late to make changes but needs cross party action.

Finally someone who hasn't got their head in the sand and can see how bad the country is. Unless we get Labour out nothing will change. I don't particularly like Reform but they have to be better than Labour.

Turn the clock back to pre 1997 before Blair started the monumental fuck up that we now have to live with. Stop kowtowing to certain groups. Put the armed forces on the streets to do what the police cant/wont do.
Round up all the illegals and kick them out.
Thats a start

Brilliant comment 👍

You don’t get arrested for tweets and you don’t “get away” with rape.
