Us West Midlanders get a lot shit for our accent and it's time we stop standing for it. -ing words are pronounced with a hard-G, it's everyone else that's wrong.
These lads come in two kinds:
- The strongest man alive: The person you get when you book a moving service. Is somehow able to move your fridge, washing machine and brick collection in one go. Makes you think about going to the gym despite them looking like they've never been to one.
- The human tortoise: The single most inflexible person to ever live. They fell on their back once and all four emergence services had to come out for the rescue.
Children are long-term costs and sometimes life happens. You could lose your job, a cost-of-living crisis could hit, or your relationship fall apart and mean there's only one income now (this is the reason I grew up in poverty).
Besides, should we really just let some children grow up cold and hungry for the crime of being born to 'irresponsible' parents?
He's right-wing, but not the fascist kind of right-wing. He's the kind that just doesn't care about anything but himself and because he's doing alright, the people below him can get stuffed.
Rightwing Tory MP Suella Braverman has surprised many by demanding an end to the two child benefit cap to tackle poverty - but despite internal party pressure it is not a policy Labour will pursue
> Wes Streeting has defended his party’s policy not to scrap the cap on child benefit for just two children in each household. > […] > Labour had been in favour of scrapping the child benefit cap but reversed on the proposal late last summer because shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves said it was unaffordable, provoking huge anger and debate in the party. > […] > [Ms Braverman wrote in The Daily Telegraph]: "The truth is that Conservatives should do more to support families and children on lower incomes... A crucial reform that Frank [Field] advocated was to scrap the two-child benefits limit, restricting child tax credits and universal credit to the first two children in a family. If they have a third or fourth child, a low-income family will lose about £3,200 per year. > > "Over 400,000 families are affected and all the evidence suggests that it is not having the effect of increasing employment or alleviating poverty. Instead, it’s aggravating child poverty." > > Mr Streeting told The Independent that poverty in the UK is forcing women to choose to have abortions because they cannot aford to keep the child. > > But when The Independent asked him about Labour’s U-turn on scrapping the two child benefit cap, he insisisted that dealing with child poverty was “more than just about handouts”. > […] > [He said]: "I also know that that the answer to child poverty, ultimately, is not simply about handouts, it is about a social security safety net, that also acts as a springboard that helps people into work and with good work that makes the cost of living affordable for everyone. > > "That means that if you aren't doing the right thing, and earning a living and playing by the rules, that you don't just have enough to make ends meet, but you have enough to do the things that make life worth living. And we’re some way from that from that now."
Question for the class, is a prospective politician named 'Kunt' an example of !nominativedeterminism@feddit.uk?
There's been like 3 posts about this in the last 2 days, which is very uncharacteristic of 196.
Anyway, if you guys get bored of this then may I recommend some Fit For An Autopsy.
This is a clip of a clip, it is an edited clip you clipped out the point about the 97 genders
"Why are we talking about my homophobia when we should be talking about my transphobia."
I would've gone for "absolute unit" myself, but this meme was clearly made by one of those tea-wasting traitors.
I think it's the thing that gives your account avatar cat ears. But IDK, I don't use Misskey.
I wouldn't say Mr House is meritocracy, he even admits to being an autocrat. I remember watching this great video on how Mr House is basically Singapore.
This would've been a lot funnier to post before the US aid went through, but oh well.
I got it from here with yt-dlp. Searching "driver kicks cyclist falls over" is how I found it, I remember seeing it on r/okmatewanker a while back.
One wonders why are there adverts on public-sector portals at all
> At least 18 public-sector websites in the UK and US send visitor data in some form to various web advertising brokers – including an ad-tech biz in China involved in past privacy controversies, a security firm claims. > > […] > > In the US, .gov websites are not supposed to run ads. In the UK, ads are allowed on .gov.uk websites, subject to some limitations. The .gov and .gov.uk sites flagged by Silent Push each publish an ads.txt file that spells out the businesses allowed to automatically sell that site's ad space to advertisers as a visitor arrives. > > […] Silent Push found a bunch of UK and US government websites with [the ads.txt] file listing various advertising exchanges and resellers ranging from Google (like what El Reg uses) to one in China. > > […] > > One of the ad-tech vendors used by the .gov.uk sites, and highlighted by Silent Push, is Yeahmobi. This Chinese entity reportedly had its mobile ad SDK removed from the Google Play Store in 2018 for alleged ad fraud. Yeahmobi did not respond to requests for comment. > > […] > > Silent Push's report identifies four .gov sites that, in our experience, do not display adverts though do ping web ad platforms, do list various exchanges in their ads.txt files, and may break US government CISA rules. In the UK, it's a different story, as 18 sites identified by Silent Push use Yeahmobi among others to display ads somewhere on pages.
