    Someone interviewing ML yesterday was making a huge play on the fact that "only" 63% of the members had voted to continue with strike action

    The Mail comes up with a headline North Korea’s leaders would have probably dismissed as a bit OTT.

    Exodus 5:10
    And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw.

    These right wing foghorns always like to make it known they have a diesel. In 2022. And they want us to respect their opinion.

  22. Even better. Exquisite Karma. Andrew Tate and his equally obnoxious brother have been arrested in Romania for sex trafficking. Authorities were tipped off to his location when his pathetic "comeback" video to Greta Thunberg featured him receiving takeaway pizzas from a Romanian pizza chain...

    That 'reads' to be a little bit more than just "...trafficking...":

    "The Times" has an article with 'news' that the BBC paid £127m in golden handshakes to departing staff featuring photos of recently departed BBC talent Jon Sopel and Andrew Marr. Sope and Marr quick to point out tat they didn't receive a penny:

    Meanwhile nothing changes. The right attack the left . The left attack the right .
    Affluent fake socialists moan about queuing up at foreign airports en route to their latest holiday whilst children go hungry . Then project , quite rightly, onto the Tories . Politics ? Fugg off . You are all fake .

    Your attacks on your imagined 'affluent fake socialists' is baffling. Why is it hard to imagine that people who are doing okay, or even pretty well, would like to curb outright corruption, greed, naked self-interest, stupidity and general awfulness and ensure that society is fairer and distribution of wealth more even?

    In the other thread you stick up for homeowners and those who have inherited well, which flies in the face of some of your other comments. Now, I know life is not simple and it is actually possible to hold several seemingly conflicting points of view, but it partly comes across as the politics of envy, or the politics of anger. And while it might be irritating if journalists called Jon and Jeremy point out that it's taken 45 minutes to get through passport control at Geneva airport on their way to Chamonix, that same friction is contributing to many goods and services becoming more expensive for everyone, which hits the poorest first and it hits them hardest.

    So, if there's anything fake around here, I suggest a little look in another direction.

  30. I take it you are replying to the Working Class Hero. He is the Politics of Envy writ large. It is why he is so keen on brexit. Doesn't care if everybody is significantly worse off (meaning of course that the least well off are hit proportionally hardest) just so long as Guardian reading wokerati have some of the shine taken off their perfect lives.

    A complete tosser in other words.

    It's truly bizarre how many people make it out to be some kind of hardship.

    I've worn at facemask around injection mold presses and it was still perfectly viable, albeit a little stiffling at times. The temperature around those is well beyond what most people will experience in most aspects of their lives.
