Indeed. However Corbyn will still usher the right to power as he did brexit. He's incompetent.

THREAD: As India launches strikes against Pakistan tonight, misinformation is rapidly spreading online. I'll fact-check viral falsehoods in this thread.

This video, viewed over 660,000 times, shows Israeli air strikes on Gaza in October 2023. It's unrelated to Indian strikes tonight.

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

This implies a career path in viziering. Perhaps starting with apprenticeship and then a coveted "early career vizier" role for the real up and comers
