Age restrictions is usually due to religious voters

On what grounds, and isn't it just a pretext like here?

Possibly propaganda, but a past government. The funder of that game, "Prevent", was a scheme started under the ill-fated Cameron government and by 2023, I think that was the Sunak government.

Then again, why shouldn't people who act as if they're being radicalised in the game not expect their character to be nearly arrested in the game? It's extremely twisted if someone from an immigrant nation like the UK starts protesting against immigration, it's not going to end well and it's probably better for the game to explain that reality than pretend those protests don't have a downside.

So many to choose from! How about building more gas turbine power stations (thereby increasing demand for gas, pushing the global price up and benefitting Gazprom even if they don't buy directly from them), cutting stamp duty on the biggest properties (including most of those bought by Russian oligarchs) and pulling out of the European Defence Fund? All straight from the last Reform manifesto and I'd bet Putin would be in favour of those, wouldn't you?

If you don't like those, there's stuff like cancelling our human rights, repealing the Equalities Act and "scrapping" the BBC.

I suspect Reform would also open the floodgates to more Russian government funding, Nathan Gill style and otherwise, but they're not daft enough to put that in their manifesto.

Maybe you could say which Reform policies would Putin oppose? There's some he probably wouldn't care about either way, but oppose?

The game is from 2023. Not much to do with the current government. It was also an attempt to stop radicalisation, not shame people for having stupid views on immigration.

The game when it was online would report you for taking "wrong" decision

Are you sure? The article seems to say it would have told you that your actions in the game scenario would have resulted in reporting, but the wording seems ambiguous.

Then it's your fault for not getting involved and telling your electeds to stop allowing the hellscapes. HTH 😉

Xitter, fakebook and friends are not social (more lke antisocial), not media (as they aren't subject to the full media regulations), and unsafe for adults too!

Can't it be shared-fault? Most of our residential area designs suck and discourage taking children outside without cars or at least buggies.

Reform UK Re-use the worst Tories and Recycle Putin's policies

Well, truth is often stranger than fiction. Look at the research. Once a threshhold of visibility is achieved, more is not better. Beyond a point, more is actually detrimental.

It really doesn't, especially if it makes you look less like an ordinary human. You absolutely don't want them to think you're an expert rider who doesn't need space, or something like that.

You don't need them to see you from space. You need them to see you from just far enough away, but actually care enough not to endanger you.

Why do the anglos always have exceptions for exceptions?

History and a preference for not reopening awkward compromises until they become really really annoying. Except one.
