How many new houses are built by immigrants and how many immigrants are there?

They could built all the houses but absolute numbers matter not percentages.

I'm left leaning thanks.

But free speech is exceptionally important.

Its about not voting for the tories. More than it is anything else.

Now there are more right options that will swing back. Hence how it is out of date.

14% of the vote from a brand new party, with signs that's increasing. It not insignificant

Just price gas products accurately with externalities.

Or better yet ban them.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

You are talking like some stereotypically white knight that knows how the world works and how everyone thinks and fantasies about how things should be. Yet for all this worldly knowledge that no one ever else could possibly comprehend the world doesn't work out for you.

Some guy was being a dick on public transport, seemingly knowingly, I call him out for that and he stopped. All good.

Love how you can know so much about a situation that you didn't even see. That's a real good magic trick. Maybe you should be a detective?

Where I live we don't have a hand gesture for that. I am curious what it entails?

You put your hand up like a high 5. It is generally seen as a "I fucked up, I know, sorry" it's pretty common it a lot of cultures. Weird you don't know this yet you know so so much above everything else

"what the fuck"--- a pretty hostile thing to communicate to a stranger by any method--- wouldn't you say there is a possibility that it was interpreted as menacing?

How is wtf hostile? Like if you seen a duck carrying a cat across the road and some guy made a wtf gesture at you, you're going to reach for you gun?

Even if you do know better than to start a fight on public transit, this guy doesn't know you. People start fights for less. He's not reading your mind, to know you are thinking like sun tzu, and would therefor not attack from a position of weakness like the seat in front. People get stabbed on busses and trains for minor insults. Don't you think he could have just been cautious?

So let's get this right. People get attacked on busses for minor things. You think this guy is worried I might have beat him, and you think that too, because that's what's happened on public transport.

Well it sounds like I did this guy a favour, the next guy might have stabbed him. Everyone that gets on the bus with him wins because they don't get pissed off and he wins because no one kills him for being a dickhead.

If him being scared prevents all this then I guess you are right. I did him a favour.

Look cunt you obviously seem to know it’s not right if you acting like that so why you being a knobhead? Just because no one will call you out?

I'm sorry I can't read minds thinking about the situation at a different time period. But again, that's an awfully good skill you have.

Omg you are actually talking about video games now. You're too much.

I said "can't you put some headphones in?" And put my hands up gestured in like "what the fuck are you doing"?

I'm not going to start a fight with a guy sitting directly behind me. That's strategically stupid. I didn't even stand up.

Technically I guess he put one hand up because his other was holding the phone. Which is a very, very common gesture of guilt. I literally watched a game today and one of the players made that gesture to his own teammates when he made a mistake. I doubt he was expected to get punched by them either.

People need to get called out for this more.

I was thinking "I bet back in the day people would have called people out on their shit. That's why standards were higher". So I called some guy out on it and he was like "sorry sorry sorry. Okay" and he put his hands up.

Look cunt you obviously seem to know it's not right if you acting like that so why you being a knobhead? Just because no one will call you out?

Edit:corrected my own shite grammar

Locals primarily.

Where do immigrants live in trees?

Oh course its going to increase any housing shortage.

There is a lot of problems with immigration. Immigration as a whole is different to certain immigration. If you break it down certain countries, certain jobs and certain education levels can cause a net drain on a country.

That's not to say all immigration is bad. But to think all immigration under any circumstance is good is just a signs of being brainwashed by their side and refusing to look at anything that goes against their view.

They have more renewables than any other state.

"The UK’s era of coal-free power begins on the 1st October 2024, following a rapid decline over the last 12 years which has seen power sector emissions plummet by three quarters."

"This report provides an overview of the UK coal power phase-out, looking at changes in electricity generation since 2012 when coal began to rapidly decline. It provides context on how phase-out was achieved through a mix of initiatives and policy frameworks, and considers how this can inform the next chapter of UK power sector decarbonisation."

"Coal power provided almost 40% of UK generation in 2012, shrinking to 2% by 2019, and finally falling to zero by October 2024. In 2012, coal generated 143 TWh of electricity, equivalent to Sweden’s total power demand in 2023."

"the Alphabet-owned company has been allowed to deploy an unlimited number of robotaxis for paid driverless rides in the city [San Francisco] at all hours. In March, state regulators allowed the company to expand its commercial ride-hailing to 22 Peninsula cities.

Now, Waymo officials are declaring victory after a year of commercial driverless service without any serious incidents and say it gives them confidence to speed up their robotaxi expansion.

David Margines, Waymo’s director of product management, said in an interview that the company’s one-year track record in San Francisco “is a validation” that its robotaxis can “drive safely” and “coexist in the communities that we want to operate in.”

“Looking back over the year, I’m thrilled to say that it’s been a big success,” he said."

"Waymo regularly takes its autonomous vehicles on winter road trips to test the cars in snowy environments. In 2017, it was Michigan.

This year, Waymo will hit multiple wintry locales, including Truckee, California; Upstate New York; and Michigan, from the Upper Peninsula to the metro Detroit area"

Seen this on reddit and thought it was an interesting question that largely is not talked about.

It is largely an issue that gets sidelined and hidden because people don't want to talk about it or accept that it exists. Hopefully this gets some traction to break that marginalisation.

"There is no evidence of a large rise in suicides in young patients attending a gender identity clinic in London, an independent review has found."

"Prof Appleby's review concludes "the data do not support the claim".

And he added that the way the issue had been discussed on social media was "insensitive, distressing and dangerous".

"A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said decisions on children's healthcare must follow the evidence at all times."

The government has announced the immediate lifting of the de facto ban on onshore wind development in England, among other actions to speed up planning decisions.

The move, announced by chancellor Rachel Reeves in her first major speech since taking office, has been made as it sets a commitment to double the capacity of onshore wind in Britain by 2030 and boost energy independence.
