I like being interested in things!
Nothing is ever truly boring if you can find your way into it!
My main passions are gaming, music, writing and having an unhealthy relationship with wanting to know the latest politics stuff!

Feel so much pity for people like this woman. She’s clearly living an abusive, pathetic and empty life.
However, it is not ok that she is desperately trying to spread her misery to the next generation.

lol, People disagreeing with you isn’t trolling.
I don’t agree because it’s clear from almost every single metric and survey out there that the one thing people don’t want is exactly what you’re advocating.
Why do you still tolerate being on X?

Correction- ‘racists’ care about migrants arriving. Normal people just want to see everyone treated humanely.

He was always careful with his words in public (although a quick search will show you he let some things slip!), but the wonderful biography of him by Rob Wilkins details it in quite an amusing way

He also clearly despised JK Rowling, making him even more of an absolute legend.

Everything in this is “announced”, “planning”, “starting” etc.
He hasn’t actually done anything except be a huge transphobe and attempted to kill disabled people.

I mean, unless previously 300k people had downloaded a VPN. In that case a 1400% increase would result in millions.
I think it’s reasonable to suggest that the OSA is likely to cause millions more people to use a VPN than otherwise would have ☺️

You think the people using VPNs before this was 0?
You seem absolutely intent on having an argument about very little (social media, I know 😅)
What do we even disagree on?

Please feel free to use the search engine of your choice to look it up 🙂 I’ve attached a photo here for you.
The confused comment was because you said I was both lazy AND committed, which I found quite amusing ☺️

I do find it wild in 2025 how many people are genuinely surprised to find out a) VPNs exist and B) the younger generation are more technologically literate than them

I mean, your policy position of “do something completely ineffective so we can pat ourselves on the back and not think about actually protecting children” isn’t good policy. I don’t have the answer, but “doing something stupid just because” isn’t the answer either.

The OSA is terrible. It doesn’t protect anyone. In fact it does the opposite - it drives millions of people on to VPNs and doubles the original problem.
Labour are technologically illiterate, and it’s damning (and genuinely horrifying) that someone as vile as Farage is the voice of reason here

Your report treats GDP as the most important thing, rather than fairness and reducing inequality.
How about reverse brexit (+4%), then levy wealth taxes (-2%) then we net +2% on GDP, but also deal with the more important aspects of fairness and reducing inequality?

Tell that to the millions of poor, disabled and sick who are hammered more every day, all to service GDP without being mean to the billionaires.
Raise taxes on the middle sure, but normal people arguing against wealth taxes (and suggesting we should tax the poor more!) is just the saddest thing.

Reading the report “unfairness” and wealth flight are two main arguments.
GDP is a terrible way of measuring things. It results in people like you arguing against a fairer society with less inequality, all to make the GDP number go up by a fraction of a percent to benefit billionaires.

Haha, Ok mate, enjoy licking those boots 😛
I notice you haven’t engaged about inequality etc. but I assume you maybe just don’t care about normal people, as long as GDP number go up!

I have read the report. It wouldn’t crush the economy. Maybe you should read it?
It focuses so much on gdp, companies on the margins and flight that it misses the bigger picture of reducing inequality, fairness and long run gain.
We should enhance inheritance tax and capital gains etc as well.

It wouldn’t crush the economy, that’s hyperbolic ridiculousness.
And If the argument is that it’s hard to do effectively, that isn’t an argument, that’s an excuse. Try harder, do it effectively. Tax the rich.

Arguments against seem to be “it’s hard and might take a while and might be unfair to the super rich”
Smallest violin time.
Even if it just drove billionaires and the super rich out of the UK, what a massive win! We could reclaim their homes and assets and actually use them!
