She probably should have got done a research job in a university of something, thats probably what would have suited her skillset better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Protests up and down the country yesterday from #enoughisenough can you see it being reported anywhere? People being arrested around the queen's funeral for holding up cardboard signs. Right to protest clamped down on. Rwanda immigration policy. I just hope that when we get the chance, we vote for a change. Assuming people can actually vote and have their ID's ready! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in a situation now where we have had 3 utterly incompetent leaders in 3 about 3 years, and there is literally nothing the public can do about it because the opposition parties don't have the votes to take them down, the only way to get enough votes is for conservatives to vote against their own party and government to force an election, of which most of those conservatives will never do because they will lose their highly paid job. The ultimate corrupted incentive to keep themselves in power. Our entire democracy hangs on the balance of corrupt people not being corrupt, in a system that perpetually incentivises corruption. The UK is pretty much a failed state at this point, and we have to sit and accept it. It's times like these I wish the UK public were more like the French. Said it before, but our democracy was built for the 1700s when it took days or weeks to get to London on horseback from northern Scotland or western Ireland and has never been updated - that's why we have this weird FPTP consistuency "local election" model that the rest of the western world abandoned about a century ago. The idea was, in the days before mass communication, you'd nominate someone in your local consistuency to send to London every year to tell them how it was going in your area (a job which no one wanted and everyone hated back in the day btw) and that's why the model exists. It's quite clearly ridiculously unfit for purpose in the 21st century. We have just about the least democratic voting system in the west.
