They didn’t though.

He became PM through an internal Tory vote for a leader, after the previous PM stepped down. She became leader in exactly the same way and had only lasted a seven weeks since her predecessor was forced to quit.

The Tories are truly awful, and their choice of leaders has shown that.

It depends on where in Europe you plan on going, but there’s an abundance of good Caribbean food in the west, especially the UK. Authentic Mexican is harder to come by, but it’s improving.

'Murica isn’t the center of the world, numbnuts. And neither are you.

The comments point you make is a really great one. I was the same on Reddit, never engaging on something because by the time it appeared in my feed, it would be thousands of comments deep. Everything that needed to be said had been said.

But on Lemmy, it’s much easier to jump in and actually have a conversation.

I switched over when it was announced Sync for Reddit was closing, but became much more active when Sync for Lemmy arrived due to it being an interface I had been familiar with for a decade. But the move came at a time where I was taking steps to reduce my empty consumption too, deleting social accounts and replacing them with books and newspaper subscriptions. The lower content count on Lemmy is perfect for that as it means I still get great stuff in my feed, but it’s not really possible to scroll forever. Instead I now open a newspaper app, use Pocket to read an article I’ve saved or pick up my book on the Kindle app. I’m generally just consuming much better quality media due to much fewer distractions.

BBC abuses the hell out of that feature. They’ve pinged phones for much less than this in the past.

WTF does that have to do with this article? You went out with some people from two countries and your opinion instantly makes everyone from those countries “sick in the head”? I’m Irish and can happily tell you that you’re talking shit.

I second this!

I actually use an Orbitkey holder to keep things neat and less bulky. Strongly recommend adding their multitool to that too, which I find super helpful.

I have a Secrid Miniwallet for cards and some cash, but usually I just use Google Pay so rarely even have that with me now.

Absolutely this. I don’t mind eggs as an ingredient but straight up eating them is foul.

On the topic, can we please get some savoury brunch options which aren’t completely built around poached or scrambled eggs? Sure you can remove them, but it takes away such a massive percentage of the dish. Even vegan dishes just substitute the egg for a tofu scramble 🤢

I was at the final and loved Sweden and Finland. But yeah, Belgium is a great 90s banger. I still listen to it frequently and I hope Gustaph has more on the way.

This is the kind of attitude that has the UK the way it is and is completely incorrect. Let’s strip this down to the absolute most basic payouts people receiving governmental support in the UK can get:

• Weekly Asylum Support: £47.39 per person per week. This can drop as low as £9.58 if you are housed somewhere that provides meals, like a hostel.
• Weekly Income Support for Residents (not immigrants): Starting at £67.20 per week for 16-24 year olds, or £84.80 if you’re 25+. This can go up depending on your living situation, such as if you’re in a relationship

That’s before we even begin to talk about things like accomodation allowances. You also have to remember that UK residents can work and receive income support, with earnings up to £6000 not affecting how much weekly support can be, while asylum seekers cannot even work despite being on significantly less.

It’s easy to throw around comments like yours but if you try actually doing some research rather than spouting stuff from the red tops, you’ll see that it’s simply not true. I’ve provided links in case you’d like to start that research.

Nobody in need is getting enough support at the moment but the reason for that is not immigration, it’s years of Tory rule.

I’m an immigrant in the UK and the country keeps giving me more and more reasons to leave. It’s turned into an absolute xenophobic hellhole in the last few years.
