  • This is the nub of the issue. Markets need effective competition. Without it, you get fiefdoms and serfs, and shit products. Antitrust laws have been terrible for decades. Thanks to broken political thinking. Smash up the tech monopolies and not just tech will improve.

  • FPTP could easily give us fascists who will do to UK democracy what they have to the US.

  • Legally forced sharing from all platforms with onion routing and no ID? Government road data fed by all those cameras? Seams a solvable problem if done with privacy in mind not as yet another opportunity for mass surveillance.

  • Traffic isn't like that. Sure there are patterns and constants, but there is accidents and road closures, etc.

  • Nope. I was frequently late when using any number of open sat navs without traffic info. I end up reverting to close Waze or Google Maps.

  • Without traffic info for average road speeds and any jams, navigation can't be good.

  • What is desperately needed by all the open source navigation apps on Android is traffic info. You just can't plan a half decent route without it. Speed limits info is not enough to know the time a route will take. You need the actural average speed of the roads. Especially on old European roads.

  • We should have all got off American tech monopolies decades ago. For some reason, people struggled to see them for what they are. America should never have allowed such consolidation for their own sake. They nearly dealt with MS but then chickened out after 911.

  • To be fair, those selling AI spades make money from this AI gold rush. Like NVidia.

  • I agree we should be trying stop the ethnic cleansing Israel is doing. But I do think we should be catching those who want to take refuge here due to connections here. Also, Britain did create the Israel/Palestine mess.

    I can't speak to want Arab countries are doing or not doing. It seams they are interesting in maintaining good relations with Israel more.

  • While I'd like to see this, in our rising fascist anti-immigrant political climate, where even the BBC mix up migrant and refugee, it seams unlikely. These are brown Muslims compare with white Christian of Ukraine. Despite attempts to make it illegal, there is a lot of pro-Palestine support, but I don't think that will translate to a lot of support to bring them here. It should, but won't. Britain is losing it's soul.

  • I skimmed them as I knew most of it already. I've seen him say stuff about Russia that disgusts me before.

    Good follow up post : https://feddit.uk/post/35181984/19652057

    If Corybn wants support from people like me, he needs to come out loudly condemning Putin's actions and support Ukraine. Being anti-war is a massively stupid position against someone like Putin.

  • If you go from Labour to Reform, your not of the Left. Or fooled. Guess will find out if the left is so split by election time and Reform splip in. I'm blame Corybn for that like I do for Boris's win. That time it was by repelling people to the Tories. This time it would be vote splitting. Though I agree with a good chunk of what he says, he a political menace of the left.

  • I think all the left wing parties agree there is a problem with in equality. If the left splitters off to load into so many parties, it will lose. No matter if it makes up over half the electorate. FPTP is basically rigged against the left because the left struggle to compromise and unify.

  • They try that American's world standing will keep plummeting. I know the US is incredibly inward looking, but it would be hard to hide that reality from the population.

  • He Putin's basically. Maybe out of naivety, but the result is the same.

  • Because we have FPTP and this will further split the left vote and let Reform / Tories in.

    Our number one priority should be to kill FPTP and make it so we don't have governments only a minority of the voters wanted.

    We know a Corbyn Labour party scares people to vote against Labour. He has a ceiling. There is a lot of country that subscribes to his views, but not enough to do more than strip those votes from Lab/Lib/SNP/Green/Plaid.

    Reform are worse than Tories and I fear if they ever get power, they do a Trump. Damage the country and be hard to remove.
