Every 18-year-old would choose between joining the military or volunteering one weekend a month in the community.

    This has the be the stupidest, most ignorant, laziest, most confidently incorrect, economically illiterate website in the world.

    How is the office of national statistics okay as a source for such an outlandish claim, that I’m chatting shit about?

    https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/personalandhouseholdfinances/incomeandwealth/bulletins/theeffectsoftaxesandbenefitsonhouseholdincome/financialyearending2022

    “The proportion of people living in households receiving more in benefits than they paid in taxes decreased from 55.0% to 53.8% in FYE 2022”

    Fuck me it’s tiring coming on here and trying to talk to people. Why are people so confident and things they know fuck all about? People need to learn how stupid they are about the economy, it’s mind blowing that people don’t even know!

        I’m not technically correct, I’m just simply correct. I said what I said and was right about it, even though you couldn’t see that.

        No, the governments main job is to look after the people. How they do that is obviously difficult.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
