This is an important point.
We have to remember the US already manufacturers most every product outside the US.
In part this means their tarrifs wars are less harmful to Thier own politicians.
It is important to remember companies doing this are still funding US political parties and politicians.
Boycotting coca cola pepsi apple and other US companies that fund the US but make stuff all over the world. Is important.
Yep. Sorry was editing the post as you typed.
Unfortunately in the current climate PR is not something we can really on. We need to beat FPTP and pull the left together to win under that.
PR as a goal is good. But we need to win under FPTP.
Reform did not win. Labour lost.
As with all locals. Turn out is so low that small numbers make a huge difference.
Labour lost by failing to give voters a reason to support them. We no longer have a valid left wing option at all. So approx 60% of voters feel unrepresented.
In this situation where the left has no real option to vote for. Yes the right leadership of labour will push for more right wing votes.
Forming a new party may be the only option. With no party to vote for labour has no need to work for the left wing vote. Under FPTP. The threat of a 3 party appealing to a large % of left wing voters. Is the only way to force the main parties left. And ATM we have to fight using FPTP.
If the right has an alternative. While the lefts only option is not to vote. It's hardly a suprise that both parties only care about the right.
Green is still seen by most as a single issue party. And not by many a practical one.
As it amounts to a manifesto promise.
Labour has nothing to gain from denying it.
Tory and reform really are best keeping silent on the subject.
But if you notice all the turning to non donation issues.
That will be where parties look to prevent progress on the whole bill.
The oozlum bird technique of carbon capture.
Brexit was dumb.
That said this sounds like an overstatement.
We average between 550k to 600k deaths a year. So 1.5k is well under 0.3%.
Add the fact it is almost impossible to put such deaths down to 1 cause. They were after allin NHS care.
And it very much sounds like the usual press over enthusiastic support for a small comment in the data. Not something clearly identified by the study authors.
Let's remember fararge has a history of making comparisons he has no plans to follow.
Switzerland and Norway during Brexit.
The equive now would be to say not funded by taxation dose not mean the US model.
The UK is unique in funding the NHS from the general taxation fund. Everyone else with universal healthcare uses an NI like setup. Our NI dose not fund the NHS. This was an intentional choice that the right strongly objected to.
Fararge will never admit to going US style. He will propose different systems while refusing to commit to any one set of rules.
Really dose not take any imagination to consider who may want this unsure potential change in the UK. More soost it working for Brexit.
It is important for all media and other folks talking to him. To force him to describe the future system he wants.
Being vague is not to be trusted.
That's OK. We all know how hard your working to train your sperm. Having it jump into socks when only American eggs are nearby. Is at least creative as a solution.
But they also should have been more independent in the first place.
Sorta comes with actually following agreements. And the US ignoring it's own past.
After ww2 the US forced European nations into following US fiscal leadership. In exchange for the fiscal support post war.
You ignored the war for 4 years building up your power while Hitler destroyed Europe. Then used that power to entrape Europe into your methods.
Add to that using your huge defence budget to overpower the spending of remaining world. And dependency on the US was not an option bot a act of force.
Wow you eat at some classy places.
Most would do that to the mushroom on your plate.
Only the real classy places will go get a second oneto hide their actions.
Unfortunately you elected him twice. Knowing what a arsehole he is.
So now the rest of the world has absolutely no reason to trust any treaty you sign. It just time until you elect another nutter who will ignore the treaties when it suits them. Or the billionaire buggering them.
Heck you started a trade war with a nation he signed a free trade deal with last time you elected him.
You are not a nation to trust even though some of you may be sorta cool.
Your legal systems independence is proven false and party driven. And your constitution seems intentionally meaningless, as a form of government control.
While your second amendment seems to only increase the availability of death. With no ability to control the power of your government.
You are basically a member of a failed state.
Another way to consider it.
If the US is not willing or able to force their president to follow their own rules.
What duty dose the UK have.
Him running his own company while president has been against US rules from early on. Him using his political influence to push his own interests is unconstitutional.
Our PM allowing him to. In an attempt to help our own nation build ties. Breaks no UK rules.
We are not responsible for protecting us democracy from itself.
