Really hard to articulate how worrying trends in UK pol are.
The worst part is this is just the prelude - desperate grasping from established parties to seize some stake in what comes next.

you can currently claim at least partial child benefits if you're earning up to 80k so that would be, in theory.......basically all parents on ILR and settled status? wtaf
Here Lam explicitly sets out her proposal - which is official Conservative Party policy - to deport long-standing legal permanent residents who have *ever* claimed any benefit, including the state pension or child benefit (even if the child is British), or who earn less than £39K.

If you see a Lime (or other hire) bike parked somewhere “bad” then it’s okay to use the basket as a bin. If enough people did that they might actually solve the “lol that’s an externality” problem.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

London is great! One of my favourite things to do is getting off the tube early and doing a ~45 random walk to the office. I always find something nice
