Governments are very well aware that UBI would save money and make everyone happier. The *only* reason nobody has implemented it is because employers would have to stop taking the piss out of their staff and the resulting adjustment period would be tumultuous to say the least.

1/2 We’re living in a media and political environment at the moment where racist people are getting away with saying racist things and then playing the victim when they’re called out for being racist

Stewart Lee: How do all these rightwing astroturfers get on the airwaves? Doesn’t anyone Google them first? From Aston Villa to George Abaraonye, every time the culture wars flare up, there’s a ‘concerned citizen’ from a previously unheard-of pressure group popping up. A little scepticism is needed

Now the party's flagship Kent administration is set to actually raise taxes and has just started asking opposition parties for help after failing to identify the millions in savings they promised

We must act now: without a written constitution, Reform UK will have carte blanche to toxify our nation | Goerge Monbiot It means breaking with hundreds of years of tradition, but it can’t wait.

Just remembered this post. And realised it has a very different resonance now.

We now know his close friend and ally Nathan Gill was accepting Russian bribes when he posted this

A mainstream “journalist” calling for a British MP to be deported. Is it because I’m Muslim? Next time, just say it with your chest.

this is obviously appalling - and he should lose his job - but it's also really quite shocking; I first met Calgie when he was a baby reporter in his early twenties and sure, he was always a Tory, but he was....fine and normal? right-wing radicalisation is out of control in SW1
