True that.

Funny how despite great interest among the population that got shot down...

Corbyn won the 2015 party leadership election to succeed him. The Labour Party's membership increased sharply, both during the leadership campaign and following his election.[3]

After Labour MPs sought to remove him in 2016 through a leadership challenge, he won a second leadership contest against Owen Smith. In the 2017 general election, Corbyn led Labour to increase its vote share by 10 percentage points to 40 per cent, their largest rise since the 1945 general election.

Following the short campaign, Labour again finished as the second largest party in parliament but surprised many pundits by increasing their share of the popular vote to 40%, resulting in a net gain of 30 seats and a hung parliament. Although Labour started the campaign as far as 20 points behind, it defied expectations by gaining 40% of the vote, its greatest share since 2001. It was the first time Labour had made a net gain of seats since 1997, and the party's 9.6% increase in vote share was its largest in a single general election since 1945.[113][114] This has partly been attributed to the popularity of its 2017 Manifesto that promised to scrap tuition fees, address public sector pay, make housing more affordable, end austerity, nationalise the railways and provide school students with free lunches.[115][116][117]

They could try an actual socialist, like Labour pre- Blair used to have.

The difficulty there though is finding one within the neo-liberal pro-capitalism modern Labour party...

Yeah, the BBC are talking 'bout the GDP
That means fuck all to me
I gotta eat

You know a brother's gotta eat

When he ask how I feel, I reply that I'm fed up
Some are drowning in money, I'm barely keeping my head up
Price of life on the rise, I'm feeling like it's a setup
'Cause nobody that I grew with seems to be getting a leg up

Does that preclude Palestine's right to exist though? Palestinian peoples' sovereignty?

Because currently Israel appears to be doing everything in its power to prevent that.

If they can determine another nation doesn't have the right to exist, using Might Is Right, why should the rest of the world accept their right to exist?

Cleverly later told the ombudsman's office she had "worked in BME communities" - black and minority ethnic - in her career as a youth and community worker and had "lots of BME friends".

You are completely free to build and admin your very own instance. So can I, and everyone here.

You vastly overestimate my technical capabilities!

I'm skeptical of your understanding of the word skeptical.

Questioning the official story is being skeptical.

If you're going to get the book thrown at you regardless of what you do, might as well go big and enact as much change as you possibly can.

Not exactly a difficult concept to grasp, funny how those in power never seem to get it though.

Good to know you think people taking food are scum, and not the businesses that are gatekeeping it behind profit motive. Your ire is targeted at the wrong people.

You don't pump fuel entirely yourself though.

Pay attention next time you fuel up and you'll notice there's a delay before the display zeroes out. That delay is because a human inside the kiosk watches either through the window or via camera to confirm you look old enough to fuel up and are acting responsibly enough to be allowed to spray flammable liquid out of a hose and approves the sale to begin.

You may think you're a lone wolf capable of being a big boy all by yourself but for better or worse we live in a society. Not lone individuals bravely traversing the wilds of modern human civilisation.

I don't know what we're talking about then, I never said replace every single employee with a self service checkout, I said I prefer them over shop attendants because they are faster and I can it myself (even without stealing)

In response to a comment about replacing employees with self service, in a mocking derogatory manner.

What things do you think people are nicking from a Greggs other than food then?

I didn't say steal. But if we're going down that route have you tried telling the cops to inform people to just stop doing crime? It would make everybody's lives much easier!

Clearly you've never worked a customer facing retail job in your life. There's always discounts, deals, and reductions that go awry on the tills. It's also against the law for retailers to sell alcohol, energy drinks, or knives to minors, and computers can't be held liable for that happening.

Shop attendants have a purpose beyond just beeping your items through.

Even your mocking example of fuel attendants is provided by a human in the modern day, sitting in the kiosk watching to approve the pump instead of on the forecourt, but there nonetheless.

I'm all for the reduction of labour, we do far too much unnecessary busy work to satisfy the wants of the owners. But this is one of the cases where the job has a clear purpose, for customers, businesses, and employees.

Self service has a purpose, to increase efficiencies, but not to replace humans entirely. Not to squeeze maximum profit to the detriment of everything else.
