Maybe the other anti-woke right wingers will be thinking "Ah well, Brexit was justified for other reasons, so Millionaires fleeing is regrettable but acceptable" - but perhaps someone could put that point to them.

Do you think millionaires leaving the UK - regardless of if it's down to leaving the EU or putting taxes up - is generally a bad thing yes, or do you think it's not necessarily a bad thing.
As someone anti-woke I think this is a very fair point actually.

But if the quality just seems to get terminally worse as the diversification goes underway - many people think it would be better to have quality MPs even if they were overwhelmingly pale, male and stale. If you had to take either.

Depends on what is meant by success? It seems obvious yes that it does have a higher representation of ethnic minority and female MPs - but can anyone say that the general quality of MPs has improved?
Diversity of characteristics of MPs and quality of said MPs at politics aren't mutually exclusive

To be fair there are reports that the father knew about his sons intentions about a week before the attack.
He may be wracked with guilt for not doing more (I don't know who specifically referred Rudakubana in his prevent referrals generally speaking).

Funny I consider myself heteroflexible guy - when I've watched MFM threesomes that often have no interaction between the guys it feels... unadventurous. Less free-flowing in terms of energy.

The Children's Wellbeing and School Bill passed last night, but as @stephenkb.bsky.social notes in his @financialtimes.com imes.com Inside Politics newsletter, it fails to tackle schools' major issue: poor recruitment and retention. In fact, reducing academy freedoms could worsen it.

However I can't pretend that I'm not quite grateful Musk has raised the profile of this.

To be honest Charlie's Peter's had said that the general response from survivors have been they're glad that his comments have massively raised the profile of this.

I think you've missed the main point. The majority of us don't argue that white men are the majority of perpetrators (why wouldn't they given that they're the majority) - it's that the victims of the grooming gangs made up predominantly of Pakistanis were ignored as it would reflect badly on...

Are the grooming gangs - and the fact that those responsible for failing to arrest the criminals - not also a stain on national pride?

I think the demand for proper security of the border, management of migration, and the ability to deport dangerous foreign criminals isn't fascism necessarily. Too many people equivocation the rioters with the white working class yes, but that's not the same as above.

The only thing I could realistically think of would be clubs that strictly enforce a no-grinding, no-hook up or maybe even flirtation policy for the opposite sex - you could only get it on with the same sex.
Which might not be entirely ideal for bisexuals.

Also, please know, if I get irritated and give short sharp replies, I annoy myself as much as I annoy you. I hate it when I do that and am trying to do it less.
