As a modern Brit, this list is just fucking weird. It’s only a very specific type of middle class English that would relate to this.
What does “exposed your alt on .ca” mean?
Can you intertwine Lemmy accounts from different servers somehow?
Oh no! Smells! Call the police.
“Yes, police service please. Somebody was stressed at work and decided to take a break to calm down and in doing so inadvertently made my jumper smelly. Can you arrest them please? They’re still here. They’re behind the bar serving pints to everyone, you can’t miss them, their t-shirt is so pongy, poooooeeeyyyyy. I’ll see you in 5 minutes.”
I worked in a pub for a few years, do you know how difficult it is to get the plod to show up? Even if there’s two blokes kicking the shit out of each other it can be a task to get them to respond to the call.
Making it ILLEGAL to smoke outside is ridiculous. Those who say otherwise are far happier with government overreach and authority than they’d otherwise admit.
Edit: to add, remember when we were told sitting outside kept us safe from covid, an airborne virus, because of the constant airflow? Funny how that doesn’t apply to smoking.
Absolutely authoritarian.
Education campaigns are far more effective with far less pushback than draconian bans. Let people choose for themselves.
I remember constant campaigns in the past trying to convince the public of the ills of smoking, and it (slowly) appeared to be working. Then vaping came along, and instead of continuing the education campaigns, the health departments tactics seemed to change to “take up vaping, it’s better than smoking”.
And now, it may just be anecdotal, but smoking appears to me at least, to be on the rise again. I wonder why?
LABOUR rail minister threatened a company with severe financial and reputational damage if they didn’t fire one engineer for doing his job. It’s great to see New New Labour being so pro-worker…
You mean those eco-TERRORISTS?!
They’re a threat to our nation wealth, with their desire to make life better, bastards, they should be the last to come out!
/s if it wasn’t obvious enough
No. New Labour.

Fuck the owners, grow food, grow community.
GrowVeg on YouTube is a great resource, but there’s hundreds, thousands, of people teaching gardening all over the place.
Don’t have a boring patch of grass in your garden that does nothing for you, for biodiversity, or for your community. That’s what the aristocracy did to show off how much land they have and how rich they are that it doesn’t even need to be productive. We don’t need that arrogance.
Grow carrots, tomatoes, strawberries, onions, cabbage, you’d be surprised how many varieties there are that you would think don’t exist looking in the supermarkets.
Be punk, grow food.
What a complete twist of words. Buncha cunts
I see no bias in this websites intentions at all…
Let’s definitely pretend one is better than the other.
One seeks an egalitarian future where people’s needs are met and power imbalances are kept in check.
The other seeks strict hierarchy where only those at the tops needs are met, by those at the bottom. And power is kept firmly in the hands of those who wield it.
If your view of far left comes from the likes of the USSR or China, then I have a bridge to sell you.
In 2024 Brown co-authored a pamphlet on child poverty demanding a multibillion pound package to solve what he dubbed ‘a social crisis’.[170][171][172]

Looks like he’s trying.
The eight?
I haven’t seen Gordon Brown in a long time, I thought he was Steve Coogan playing a character at first!
The problem with FPTP is that you can’t just vote based on policies.
You also have to consider who is most likely to win the seat and whether you have to vote AGAINST who you don’t want rather than FOR who you do want.

Nothing to do with austerity, Brexit, or Liz Truss…
If you watch the linked video, it talks about Farage trying to ally himself with Powell and Powell rejecting his advances. So yes, you’re correct. My point was the Tories had a vocal racist in their ranks, and they kicked him out. A racist that Farage idolises.
The Tories are scumbags but at least they have (or had) a veneer of some kind of morals about them. Farage doesn’t have that quality, so to say he’s reminiscent of a 90s or 00s Tory is raising him above his station. Even if it’s an incredibly low bar to begin with.
He shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a position of power.
I can’t even put into words how disgusting I find this.
“I can see the Labour Party coming to power in the next election - maybe, maybe not - who knows? But it doesn’t really make a difference who’s in power - the State remains the same, the structure is still there, they just tinker with it a little here and there.” - Oi Polloi
