UK Politics@feddit.uk•Prime minister to scrap spy chiefs' Hillsborough Law veto
4·5 days agoThat’s absolutely groundbreaking.
To be fair, i doubt that those government agencies will follow the rule anyway. Much like how Wales passed a law saying politicians can no longer lie there, lol. But i appreciate the prime minister reigning in the services a little.

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Anas Sarwar asks voters in Scotland to give Labour five years to ‘fix SNP’s mess’
22·5 days agoEverything he promises sounds good to me.
The party would also build new nuclear power stations, scrapping the SNP’s longstanding ban on the technology, and greatly streamline the planning system to speed up developments, Sarwar added

London@feddit.uk•Plans to transform Kingston Ancient Market submittedEnglish
1·13 days agoI’m gonna be negative. NONE of that looks medieval. It looks more medieval in its current form. Unless medieval people uawd permanent bulky wooden stalls with irregular angular woodworking, and i didn’t realise it.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Two ex-soldiers were entrusted to look after a 15-year-old in an illegal children’s home, Instead, they plied her with alcohol and abused herEnglish
5·15 days agoThis is a completely different and bigger problem than the culprits being ex army. For starters, they’re also ex-convicts, which i think is a more accurate indicator of being a child abuser. But secondly, there’s a fucking child rape industry - a “shadpw care system,” as the article puts it - and the article just briefly mentions thst like “yeah that’s just something thst happens in a socoety like ours, can’t be helped”
Maybe the headline should be “Child rapists control the entire framework for looking after vulnerable children”

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•NHS staff resist using Palantir softwareEnglish
28·16 days agoGood. How can i let them know i approve? Big blimpf flying past the hospital saying “fuck palantir, big up the NHS”?

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•New report reveals widespread data sharing and retention of Prevent referrals, including children’s dataEnglish
2·16 days agoOkay i’ve seen several articlws on prevent now, which makes me think the government is gearing up to do away with it. Given thst they claim to have got rid of non-crime hate incident policing.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Palantir’s UK boss criticises ‘ideological’ groups as ministers move to scrap NHS contractEnglish
7·19 days agoLmao, yeah the Ideologies at play here are 1. Believing in equal access to healthcare, which a genocidal AI company like Palantir will NEVER BE ABLE TO FULFILL properly, and 2. An opposition to AI because we believe in not letting robots steal human jobs

Casual UK@feddit.uk•Excellebt reminder, made me feel better about the robbed hourEnglish
4·21 days agoI like them. It makes me think that there’s at least one person, the message writer, who genuinely wants the best for everyome passing by the board
I think in some contexts/when i was a teenager I wouldn’t like them. It triggers a " don’t tell me what to do!" Or “you don’t know a thing about my problems” reaction

2·21 days agoAre these people associated with TfL or is it an indy project?
Votes are public (on your instance) but this isn’t reddit, so I just downvote things to indicate when incorrect information or bad attitude is on them (and people do the same to me and that’s fine). I suppose things are different on piefed, which has some psuedo-karma system, but that’s the outlier.
A large benefit of lemmy in general is that we can vote without it being a kick in the balls to someone’s experience on the site. Because no karma system.
He’s saying “ummmm” because we actually already do that. Fun fact :).
And we use different colours for each note.
But BTW, why the hostility to our… currency? Are you like a very patriotic IRS agent or something? Our currency isn’t any more broken or extra forgeable than any other country’s. I think you’ve extrapolated too much from seeing people bring up the occurence of forgeries on this one post.

London@feddit.uk•Police brace as thousands set to march through central London for Iran protestsEnglish
1·29 days agoWow sounds like the government should help the police out by promising not to invade iran as soon as possible (would be nice to hear someone other than Kier Starmer say it, since a promise from him means NOTHING)
On the plus side - in this instance - many say that large protests such as this will only ever occur in support of the government’s position. i.e they have the power to prevent ANY protest from happening before it has finished organising. “Iron Law of oligarchy” et cetera



Doesn’t seem like an unreasonable assumption, Wales is mostly white and almost all white outside of Cardiff, Swansea, and maybe Newport and Wrexham. And I have heard they only push it in schools to the west of Caerdydd
