The future that the tech bros are working towards will remove this requirement.

I doubt A-level English is the norm for most English people. I‘m tired of the constant immigrant bashing, it‘s only done to please the absolute worst people.

The X men cinematic universe and the Avengers cinematic universe shouldn't cross streams.

X-Men Don't Need Britches 💙💛 @rphutch1975.bsky.social · 1d

What's an opinion about X-Men that'll get you sent to jail? Is Jean really interesting or really boring? Should Logan have stayed dead? Do you think a certain x-mens outfit is positively horrendous even though people seem to love it?

The Brood Saga is better than Dark Phoenix imo 🤷

Pretty obvious the side of the debate we’re on but we wanted it to be heard and dispel some myths about immigration/asylum seekers

There are a number of similarities between the current state of the Tory party and Machester United. Including now how star players improve on leaving the respective teams.

The collapse of the "Red Wall" broke the Tory party. Like 10 thousand spoons when all you need is a knife.

Sigh. Reducing taxes does nothing to reduce the inherent risks of pregnancy and childbirth. If women have choice they will have less children, because it is the better (and safer) personal choice.

Population mortality may not change, however short term morbidity does improve with intervention. Having a dedicated MDT in our hospital has helped increase our willingness to intervene.

I fear it will be in the Great British political tradition. A lot of fudge and couched in the language of accident. Like 'Oops, we have an empire. How did that happen.'

The UK is one of the few countries with penicillin sensitive streptococcus. This is, in my view, one of the greatest achievements of the NHS model.

Labour are waiting for the moment when previously soft Brexit voters are thoroughly pissed off with the project and are screaming at them to undo it. I think this is probably the right approach, and would not be surprised if this didn't happen in the next couple of years.

Trump on Orban: "We love Viktor. You are fantastic, alright? I know a lot of people don't agree with me, but I'm the only one that matters. He's a great leader. I endorsed him the last election he had and he won by 28 points. You're gonna do even better this time when you have another election."
