Sure.

Untill you compare to anyone on the right wing.

Then suddenly he looks like the most sane candidate.

For fuck sake. 2026 politics is fucked up.

Observed it's effect. Rather then it itself.

While this is a major breakthrough. It has not actually answered what dark matter is or how it works. Just it's effects in a more localised spacial location rather then upon the universe as a whole.

It is when non state actors are doing it. IE private actors.

When done by state resources it's just a war crime.

When you add. Johnson's gov literally won a court case. Because the judge stated that parliament has passed no law banning lies in politics.

It is pretty fucking clear out politicians have no love for truth.

Depends what is meant by exposed. Most asbestos has for long while only required removal is damaged. Their is a huge amount in my council house. We were well warmned what not to damage.

And given we are in the south east. The home would not exist if the council was forced to remove it. The cost is just to high.

Suprise suprise. The people most likely to be found involved in wrong doing. Do not want an investigation into that wrong doing.

Every PMs questions needs to be MPs asking what the leadership has to hide.

The money imbalance in politics is palpable

Yep as it is in the world as a whole. Compared to the 40 to 80 hugely so.

And guess what. The folks funding reform really really want it to get a fuck load worse.

If you're in your late 70s. You have an excuse. But are not likely to think as you do. But if so. Sorry you were fooled by such arsehole Corporations lieing about their own research for decades.

If younger. Then you grew up knowing how dangerous smoking was. Even if you failed to believe the government telling you so. You have no excuse for makeing the choices you did.

And most of us who made those dumb choices do not expect others to take responsibility for them. Even if we find/found stopping hard. In nearly 60 years. Absolutely every government in my lifetime. Has reduced the excuses of the generations forward to fall for the stupidity. Including my father who gave up in his late 60s after cancer. But knew full well how dumb his smoking was when I was a toddler.

You are entitled to your opinion. But everyone else is also entitled to consider you pathetic. For thinking the government is responsible for fixing your own stupidity.

The idea is to prevent addiction forming in newer generation. Rather then banning those they have already developed addiction.

The minimum age has been rising for a couple of years.

This is actually a manifesto promises so has fairly high support. (Unlike almost everything else the gov has done).

Going bankrupt is a great way to avoid such questions.

And conveniently happens when you refuse to show customers. How you plan to ensure abuse stops.

You realise a no confidence vote. Only means an election when the party in power has a narrow or no majority.

In most cases it would mean remapping the leadership of the existing party. Definitely here. It would mean a new PM. But with Labour not only having a majority. But also having removed left of centre MPs. Actual changes would be minimal.

More concerning. Either the FO made a political decision without PM authority. Indicating the PM dose not have control or confidence of the government.

Or the PM ordered the FO not to inform him. Meaning he had suspicions. Indicating his claim of not knowing. Is a lie to parliament.

Both of these events should very much mean a call for a vote of no confidence. And am explanation to the constituency of Amy MP not calling for a vote. Or voting confidence in the PM.

Her post indicates that her and JC are in touch and working together to continue the roadmap as published.

IE the conference etc is still planned for November.

Our Party open letter to Founders and supporters.

Asking for signatures to convince both J Corbyn and Z Sultana to step back and allow a member lead team to take over.

The MPs got us this far. It's time for the people to take the reins.

Z Sultana announced she supported the movement this morning.

This is no more then an opinion. But I would be interested in others view of it.

If we believe ZS and her supporters internal to the process.

What is happening to YP is very similar to tumers from when JC was leading labour. We saw evidence of internal attacks from the right in 2019. But tumers of his supporters infighting and trying to take control were common before then.

I think I and many members from that time put them down to the right string trouble. But I'm now starting to wonder.

Corbyn made a effort to move labour more democratic and membership led right from the start. Continuing from eds reduction in union power.

Given ZS claims and other insiders reports to the guardian etc.

Is it likely that the right had help from left PLP under labour. And those same MPs and union leaders are using their history with Corbyn to embed control early into the YP set up.

Added to multiple comments we have seen throughout YP communities on social media. Indicating distrust in the whole idea of a membership lead control.

Is the idea something the left is willing to fight for.

This is very much interpreted from multiple emails and news articles.

So is opinion. But as I shared the membership portal. And it has been accused of being fake, I should share my opinion.

Supporters have received an email from YourParty.Uk saying the membership site was not official.

But another email from Zahah Sultana suggest she sent the email and set up the site I shared. News articles agree that she is indeed suggesting other MPs are trying to freeze her out of the process. I have emailed her directly for confirmation. But expect a delay to answers.

The claim seems to be that the roadmap emails were sent without her (or by some interpretations). Jeremys approval. Dispite this being a requirement of the initial founding in July.

She seems to indicate other independent MPs are trying to freeze her out of the process. And she set up the membership site to support the roadmap. While ensuring members were involved in the process.

My opinion is nothing more then that. So you guys will need to decide for yourselfs. But I am of the opinion the membership we signed up to are in her control. Rather then a random stranger. And will wait to see if other evidence supports her claims that independent MPs that have claimed to support the party are potentially causing trouble before members can prevent it.

Hi. Just to make things clear. My reason for trying this is I am visually impaired.

I am writing some code to run on a pi zero 2. With a small 5 inch screen. IE the code interface is being designed to display very clear large buttons on a small screen.

To set up the OS build, I am trying to create a Qemu emulator on my large screened home desktop. So I can actually read code file system etc in large print. Once I have the OS set up and can install a lite image with very minimal xwindows / tkinter support. I can then use SsH etc to work on the GPIo stuff.

My issue is I have no experience with QEMU. I am having issues finding any online guide using recent versions of QemuEtc (preferably not video as watching code/CLI on YouTube is just undoable with vision issue's.)

If anyone can help with a guide on how to set up qemu_system_aarch64 for raspi2ap

IE what exactly I need to do to provide a -kernal and IMG etc to build a image. I'd be very grateful.

I'm posting here hoping you guys will have some experience. But please let me know if somewhere else would be better.

My desktop is running Debian bookworm with a back ports version of QEMU.

 

For anyone joining Your Party or interested in the ideals etc.

Gary's Economics is a very good channel to watch. The guy really knows his stuff.

He is doing a good job of pushing the data and obvious risk of economic inequality on social media.

This link is not the best first one, I'd recommend spending time watching his understanding wealth series. He dose a very good job of pointing out why the current inequality happened etc.

LINK BELOW.

But this video cross posted is a good indication of the work ahead for YourParty before the next election. it is going to take time and funding to form a good wealth tax policy. And the Party should start soon after the 1st conference.

As you are new to this. Thought more experienced may want a place to offer friendly advice.

First it is common to post rules for communities in the side bar. Normally just behaivior type things. Look at a few other communities on political parties and use what you feel in appropriate.

As the community grows. You may want to find folks you trust and ask them to help mod the group. This is mainly folks with the authority to delete posts that break said rules. Multiple people help limit the time offensive nsfw or outright advertising like posts (assuming they are rules you want. NSFW is required by feddit.uk as are a few others.) are up and causing issues.

Feddit UK really is a fairly good space people wise, but Any political forum attracts fecal exit points.

Others may have more ideas.
