I don’t ever watch porn on a mobile, but it’s not the point. I don’t want my internet filtered and it’s a pure excuse to track and monitor us all at all times.
G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Nimby Watch: Nimbys hate your childrenEnglish16·4 months agoLike yes, I agree with you, however I used to live near a playground and the sound of screaming kids can get pretty annoying after a while.
Like, why scream like that all the time???

G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Hundreds of thousands of Brits to have energy bill debt written offEnglish32·5 months agoReally think this should come from Energy companies profits rather than other bill payers.
Though in fact my policy is full nationalisation, no compensation for shareholders and then sort it out with real investments.
G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Vets could be made to cap prescription prices after UK watchdog investigationEnglish2·6 months agoGreat idea, I’ve felt vets are taking the piss with the cost of medication on a few occasions. One time I paid £80 for ear drops you can get in boots for a fiver.
G4Z@feddit.ukto Ask UK@feddit.uk•... just how much is a private covid19 vaccine near you?2·6 months agoI’ve been sick the last few days, still sick today. Could be flu could be COVID. Same thing happened last year, I was too busy with work to go get a free vaccine (I’m entitled for health reasons) and I ended up going down with it.
This year, gone down before I even got the text that this years was available, come to think of it, still no text.
It’s been rough, I’m still suffering, so I defo recommend you all get it.

Yes, I would want to see that, I don’t understand the objection.
Is Big Daz’s looney tabs, which are on offer from your local dealer currently, any better somehow?
G4Z@feddit.ukOPto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugsEnglish11·6 months agoRight, but people take all those drugs anyway even though it is illegal.
All prohibition does is mean it’s unregulated, unsafe and a huge waste of policing resources and ruined lives (mostly via enforcement).
Drugs should be a health issue, not a policing one.
G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•'Buy one, get one free' deals for unhealthy food banned in supermarketsEnglish3·6 months agonationalising trains
Sorry, but no, they haven’t. Some franchies expired and returned to state ownership, which was a Tory policy and several TOC’s reverted under them.
sort of) nationalising steel
No they haven’t.
nationalising a part of our energy sector
Again, no they haven’t, GB Energy whatever the fuck it actually is, is not nationalising energy.
If they had actually done those things, then yes they might be in the win column.
bringing the NHS back under direct public control
Total vague nonsense, how’s outcomes doing? No real change?
ending various tax-dodging loopholes, such as the IHT for farmers and non-dom taxes
They chickened out on that and for me, it’s not nearly enough and exactly shows the problem with Keir Starmer and his boring pussy arsed government. IHT should be like 100% over a certain amount, there should be no generational wealth. He should be making that case and it would certainly set him apart from Farage and company.
windfall tax on energy companies
Probably the first one we can unambiguously say ‘ok’ on… Though of course, not really because the energy windfall tax was a Tory policy from 2022 and all they did was increase the rate from 35% to 38%.
I really cannot be arsed to go through the rest, but suffice to say.
Bullshit mate.

G4Z@feddit.ukOPto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Firm linked to Tory peer Michelle Mone breached £122m PPE contract, High Court rulesEnglish9·6 months agoThey are just scapegoating Mone, and it will amount to a slap on the wrist in any case. She should be in prison with all her assets seized, imo. The fact the law is okay with destroying poor people’s lives over vastly smaller sums just says everything about this society.
Mone’s PPE Medpro was given about £200m in govt contracts. Ayanda was given £252m in contracts. It’s the family office of a Tory advisor. They had no history in PPE and were given the contract because of politics links.
We paid a quarter of a billion for masks that were found to be defective and had to be burnt, also at taxpayer expense. Ayanda is not in court.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg, that VIP lane was just legalised corruption and they have already gotten away with it.

G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•'Buy one, get one free' deals for unhealthy food banned in supermarketsEnglish43·6 months agoHealthy people cost the NHS a lot more when they live to 90+, I can say for sure when my 97 year old nan died she used up a LOT of resources that last 20 or 30 years.
I just don’t find the NHS costs argument convincing.
G4Z@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•'Buy one, get one free' deals for unhealthy food banned in supermarketsEnglish64·6 months agoDrugs should be legal.
If we want to encourage people to be healthy we should be making leisure centres free and make sure people have enough time to use them.
As usual this is just a sticking plaster policy on the real causes of why people eat shit or take drugs.
G4Z@feddit.ukOPto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Firm linked to Tory peer Michelle Mone breached £122m PPE contract, High Court rulesEnglish14·6 months agoMan, I feel the exact same way.
If it was just some non connected peon stealing a few quid off the social they would have them in the dock quicker than you can say ‘proceeds of crime’.
The real 2 tier justice, sickening.
