It is! I wanted sappho.club, but some bastard is sitting on the domain.
Giving money to millionaires is far from left wing.
- It actually is. Universalism is the ultimate left-wing principle, and means testing is in direct opposition of that. The NHS doesn't charge you when it thinks you can afford to pay for it. Don't like giving the rich money? Just tax them more, you'll get it back.
- We're not talking about millionaires here, only those that don't qualify for Pension Credit, which you only have to earn over a little over £870 a month to not qualify for. We're not talking about well off people here.
Trust Farage to find that worst possible response to a tragedy, why let people morn when there's hate to peddle.
he was “grifting” and pointing out that he failed to turn up to Parliament
He's sure making a habit of that.

Either of those should work.
Which would also be a weird claim given the state of Linux YouTube.
Trade union leaders had urged Starmer to abolish the two-child cap when they met at Downing Street on Tuesday, and still he ploughed on. A leader with deeper roots in the institutional ecosystem of the left might have blinked for fear of upsetting such important stakeholders. But not Starmer.
I'm in an interesting position where I had a by-election under Starmer before the general election and the difference in campaigning is stark. In the by-election, the campaigning was all about the Labour MP and their trade union roots and activities, but come the general election, all the campaign material from Labour made it seem like I was voting for a president. It wasn't the Labour candidate asking for my vote, but Keir Starmer asking me to vote for them because he had changed the Labour party and had a plan to change the country.
I say this because I think Starmer and co. have moved fairly dramatically on unions in the last year-ish and I do it'll come back to bite them.

The algorithm really did just hit me with this:
There was an SNP amendment to the King's Speech to commit the government to scrapping the two-child benefit cap. Seven Labour MPs rebeled and backed the motion and have now been suspended.
Labour had a separate commitment to redefining the categories of self-employed and employee in their "New Deal for Workers".
The original reddit sub wasn't wlw specific either, but I can change the display name to "They Were Roommates" if people want.
