remember reading a little bit about the german political system and was intrigued by how their PR worked.

I quite liked it, each person has 2 votes - one for the party they want in power and 1 for their local PM so they aren't stuck with some twat who doesn't do anything for their constituent even though they prefer the politics of a different party

We have a similar system up here for the Scottish Government elections - that's why the SNP haven't had a majority in the last two elections and have had to go into coalition with the Scottish Greens

We’ve been absolute ****e since but I agree. Bloke will go on to have a good career and will probably be in the prem before we are.

Then let Labour put it in their manifesto, next to a People's Vote on rejoining

Hopefully. Would be nice to not have an unnecessary two years of pain to satisfy some stupid gammon notion of freedom.

Slim hope. Starmer knows he'll lose red wall votes if he takes that road.

Hopefully when he gets in he just does it anyway to save ourselves from the idiocy of a certain segment of the population

Yes and no....yes she is overcome with emotion, and so she has lost all rational thinking, and cannot put a rational argument together.
Right at the end the interviewer tries to put a sensible question...... and she cools down and puts out her request...to stop all new oil and gas licences....all that is lost in her emotional showboating with "do you love your children more than fossil fuel"

Stop Oil need to put a rational, cool spokesperson in place, as they have a valid point but at the moment their methods are wrong. They need alternatives, most of all they need a plan (Nuclear fuel in my eyes)


Mind you I did this on Tuesday.... "FFS Rangers stop losing"....I have no current plan in place on how I am going to bring this about

Thing is, why are they not so bothered about other Countries who's record is so, so much worse than ours?
I actually think this country isn't doing too bad a job compared to most others.
