Our polling station is between the chippy and the offy - so vote, grub & bottle of booze to shout at the telly with!

I’m trying to be better, but I’ve done some stuff I’m not proud of…

Mate, I think you’re missing the point - whether you “deserve” bad things or not is completely irrelevant - bad things happen to good people all the time, the universe does not care.

The only thing you can do is try to be better; but not on other people’s judgement just yours - you are the only person who has to live with your conscience.

You may go to jail if you’re doing illegal shit tho…

No it’s not censorship because if you want to see Lemmygrad’s content then you can join Lemmygrad.

In the same way, I like gardening and so subscribe to ‘Gardeners World’; doesn’t mean everyone else should be subjected to posts about weeding, feeding and getting rid of blackfly if they are not interested in that.

Yep, in other news, water is wet and the sky is blue…

Forgot “lack of money” - that helps too!

He’s done this before, and you haven’t made a complaint???!

Passing snuff movies around is disgusting - IANAL but I would suggest that at minimum it would be Gross Misconduct and, probably, highly illegal and he should be immediately dismissed and possibly arrested.

However, I’m not a lawyer so I would contact ACAS ASAP, see https://www.acas.org.uk/ and log everything, inc. previous videos he’s sent around - don’t delete your evidence! But ACAS will advise you best.

Yep, like being paid to their friends for PPE that does work or doesn’t turn up!

Maybe Jacob Reece-Mogg could stick notes to their desks and they might ‘get the message’

/S - deep eye roll & depression!

Just speculation, but it might be that it’s “not onion-y” because it is completely believable and “par for the course” of the US’s relationship with Israel, despite the irony.

Might do better in “Awful Everything” or “A Boring Dystopia” as at least they’ll appreciate the nihilistic depression of it??

But, don’t know for sure, just speculation…

All of them, they all cute!

Blimey, Cleverly really is trying to lay the ground work, isn’t he, it’s not 13 years of Torry mis-management at all is it - it’s those foreign actors. Do they send the boats, too??? /s

There’s a difference between disinformation and “rigging an election”; disinformation will increase with AI, but most of the UK are not dependent on Social Media for information - and GBNews and TalkTV are dead in the water -“PopCons” are popular ‘in name only’!

When even Jacob Reece-Mogg is starting to think FPTP doesn’t work “the end is nigh” - and, bloody hell, they are scared, aren’t they!

AI deepfakes? - Bring it on! We’ll laugh at them in a very British way - with a bit of luck it’ll be as funny as Python or Blackadder, or possibly Spitting Image!

No, no they are not, annnnnnnd 6 months and they won’t be in charge in England either - not that I’m counting down or anything…

Nowt wrong wi’ that! My Mam used to make mi’ Dad Rhubarb & Custard Yorkies - he was from Huddersfield and she was from Sheffield; an you can’t get more Yorkshire than that!

You don’t need to have sweet batter though, just sweet fillings! Lovely!

Apart from that, have to agree with everything Soku@lemmy.world says - Def delish!

There are some “secret” Tories??? All the ones I know are very loud and proud!

Depends on which part of the UK you’re in, but most pronounce it Wus-ter-shure, Wus-ter-sher if you’re ‘up north’ and Wooster-sher if you’re from Birmingham/ Black country.

Just don’t pronounce it Wow-ses-ter-shire and you’ll be good 👍

An independent commission of judges select from ‘proposed candidates of merit’ (15 years service) who then tell the King and PM who they want, who then formalise the appointment.

This is (supposedly) to prevent any particular political leanings, as it’s based on legal experience not political party appointments.

I personally take that with a certain amount of salt, as it helps to have had a certain amount of privilege to get that far - in my personal opinion.

Um, what she gonna do about all us foreigners? I promise to only threaten your security a little bit - will that count??

Actually, I just know our gov will use that as an excuse to do the same!

May I recommend Shaun’s YouTube video: https://youtu.be/Ou_xvXJJk7k?si=Y1gdLj8D_MP2VolX he kinda puts it beyond reasonable doubt.

Also Contrapoints’ WitchTrials: https://youtu.be/EmT0i0xG6zg?si=Y8mDHupp8xlC28vk and Lindsay Eliis’ Death of the Author: https://youtu.be/NViZYL-U8s0?si=bkD5X10Nzv9tRsAF have background - and are very entertaining!

Sand-purrrrm!

To be fair, she’s ugly on the outside too…
