Yorkshire marmite: likely to elicit strong reactions. Currently politically homeless but left of centre. Love to visit different places.

07.08.2025 13:03 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0So Labour are throwing away 23% of their 2024 votes to the LibDems and Greens vs just 8% to Reform?
Gosh, doesn't cosplaying as Reform day in day out feel hollow now?
Ineptitude of this magnitude will be repaid at the ballot box by a Farage government, with Labour as midwife for the hellish baby.
Perhaps weโre posting less per person because someone in the larger community has already made the point we wanted to make!
07.08.2025 13:01 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0To say this is somewhat at odds with the news and social media narrative would be the understatement of the year.
Also if Ed Davey is that popular vis Farage why is the mainstream media practically ignoring him?
Yep. The best chippies up here use beef fat๐

07.08.2025 09:31 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The Labour homeless minister, Rushanara Ali, should know that โcomplying with all of the relevant legislationโ is not synonymous with behaving ethically. Yes, Section 21 no fault evictions allowed landlords to evict tenants and re-rent for much more. Didnโt make them right.
07.08.2025 09:30 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Big thanks to Lewis for debunking the dangerous misinformation going around about nationality and sexual assault statistics. Bottom line - the big headlines over the last few days have no basis in the facts. Irresponsible reporting from major news outlets stirring up fear.

07.08.2025 09:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yep. They just rely on stealing from others or repeating stories from social media (sometimes without any fact checking).

07.08.2025 08:08 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Leasing accommodation in hotels etc. political ideology put aside to do it. Sadly, it ended all too soon.
07.08.2025 08:06 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The other useful thing that happened in hotels that took the homeless that I know of was the extra support available for residents to access. Often this is what they also need but find impossible to get. We need a holistic approach - time for Labour to push forward.

We are good at cooking most meals from scratch anyway but I now avoid a few more things. Iโve always been a Lurpak fan so now I have a justification!
07.08.2025 08:03 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I donโt support REFUK & usually left wing. 2 issues here:
Illegal e-bikes (& scooter use) are a safety risk & must be dealt with.
Worsening pay & conditions for delivery staff is a direct result of employers not following laws on who is working for them (not just migrants). Call them to account.

For the majority of the population, activity levels and calorie needs have changed since the advertisement starting. Less doing really heavy manual work, less people walking, etc.
