Act like jerks and lose support - who'd've thought.
The article seems to try to paint the more extreme unionists as the good guys and ignore that they were terrorists too - just not in England.
Pushed for brexit, pushed for a hard border with Eire.
Fuck around and find out.

[HN] Most cars still cost more to charge than to fill up with gas in c/technews@radiation.party

On what planet? Petrol is currently about £1.43 per litre here in the uk {1.79 at motorway services} which costs £92 {£116} to fill up a petrol equivalent to our car (kia soul ev) while electricity is -20p per kWh at home (90% of charging) or -70p per kWh at a fast charger (rarely used) costing £13 to fill at home or £48 at a fast charger.

Utter bollocks propaganda.

You can actually charge at home for 14p per kWh if you charge overnight which is £8.96 to fill up - a tenth the price to fill up a petrol equivalent.

No one is stopping you from joining a server full of Nazis.
Those openly avocating violence and cruelty towards others who are being neither violent or cruel aren't "just another reasonable point of view that deserves to be heard"
