It's all a bit. This whole island is one big bit.
Now that the UK is deindustrialised and not subject to EU regulation, American capital can freely devour its corpse.
and this Wallace and Gromit looking fuck is going to make sure of it
I tried!
I don't blame anyone for voting Labour, especially considering the lack of alternatives, but Starmer's whole pitch since he became leader has been "Don't worry, I am incredibly right wing, and I solemnly swear to the British People that I will be the biggest removed imaginable in every way"
“Don’t worry, I am incredibly right wing, and I solemnly swear to the British People that I will be the biggest removed imaginable in every way”
Brits:
Oh cool. The UK gets its own Biden
Genuinely far far worse than Biden. Biden at least pretended to make peace with the party left.
"people" being large capitalists
The wealth will trickle down.
Tiny little trickles that'll be taxed back to the top again.
Next time, someone stop me from voting labour.
I bloody told you not to!
This makes me want to... play minecraft.
I'm determined to deliver growth, create wealth, and put more money people's pockets
Which people's pock-oh I see...Blackrock's...
Instead of Jezza, Brits have this clown?
Someone boo this man.
UK doubling down on being an international-money-laundering-based economy.
I've never heard Sir Keir Starmer speak so I read this is Milo from Trashfuture's impersonation of him. Also Keir is a name I've never seen before as a Usian
Same, I’ve only ever heard the Milo impression so when I finally do hear his real voice I imagine it will seem like an impression
(edited out comment which was basically retelling the same joke you made but agreeing with you that actually yes Milo's voice fits Keir better
he sounds like if a penis had a blocked nose
well if it isn't Mr Bobson Dugnutt himself
He is named after Keir Hardie, a socialist and founder of the Labour party. He of course does not deserve that so he's often called Keith here.
Also Keir is a name I’ve never seen before as a Usian
It's Gaelic name mostly used in Scotland.
The contradictions are becoming more and more pronounced as the remaining hotels on the monopoly board are sucked up. Nobody got no money. It's all gonna break
I like Corbyn, but godamn he's genuinely too nice of a guy to be able to survive in bourgeois politics. When Corbyn had all the momentum he should've purged this fucker and all his fellow Blairites. Once this fucker took power, he purged Corbyn and a ton of Left Labour.
Y'know, I'm not often moved to believing we should bring back crucifixion as an execution tactic.
But goddamn do politicians belong on crosses.
The political instincts on display here.
Do they just not know that everyone who's not an investment banker hates Blackrock, or do they just not care? Rhetorical question.
To be fair, your average person probably doesn't know that much about BlackRock. Nor will your average person even clock this headline much when there's the more salacious headline of Netanyahu's arrest, or winter fuel, or the farmers. That's the political instinct. Make the dodgy deal while everyone's focused on your current fuck up.
People clued in enough to focus on this headline probably already hate Starmer's Labour anyway.
Maybe I'm way off on that, though.
No one knows BlackRock, but if it's your first example of an average company, we know your politics
I really didn't expect much, if anything, they barely tried to slaughter a self destructing Tory party. Were never going to bother doing anything for the people...
