I wonder how many signatures that has now, two? Maybe three?

Just looked. Still at one.

Maybe that’s all we need… The power of One!

Taxing the super rich is a good start in my book. Hope they ramp that up when they get in. Right now they are saying nothing really which seems to be working

It’s not just me, the quality of reporting on the BBC new site has gone to absolute shit, right?

So many clickbait headlines and stuff. It’s horrible, i can barely read it these days.

They also moved the Most Read down to the bottom, so there’s basically no way to check the headlines without scrolling through a bunch of absolute bollocks.

There’s basically no good news sites in Australia so I still check BBC out of habit. But I’m gonna go news free soon I think.

Taxpayers money through getting the job as PM . Hope his private helicopter fails on him one day so he’ll never get to enjoy spending it .

There’s a skatepark in the town where me and @Snurp are from but it’s a private school and Jimmy Page’s daughter went there. Made friends with a kid there and he let me skate it when I was younger.

Damn not rishi Sunak

That whole story is sketchy.

Do the same guy who’s just turned up dead also owned a private security firm and was an Immigration Enforcement Officer as a full time job.
Very odd

Yeah a lot of talk that he’ll call a snap election tonight.

Maybe someone has finally explained the polling to him in the simplest possible terms.
