  • PoliticsPoliticsThere must be free speech, even for Milo YiannopoulosFeb 07 at 11:45 AM

    People clearly are still being taken in by these ideas - but giving people who espouse them unfettered access to a stage is not how to go about stopping their ideas spreading. And they aren't harmless "differences of opinion" - Milo bullies and outs people who he decides don't fit in and he shouldn't be allowed a platform to do that.

    I have no idea really but no need to waste any energy discussing any of this with me, I'm in the UK and not a voter in the US election :)

  • PoliticsPoliticsThe Secrets of the US Election: Julian Assange Talks to John PilgerNov 05, 2016 at 10:15 AM

    Yeah, the dude's trash and we won't be sad to see him carted off out of the UK.

  • PoliticsPoliticsThe Secrets of the US Election: Julian Assange Talks to John PilgerNov 05, 2016 at 10:06 AM

    Eh, I don't really care enough about him to look into anything he thinks about anything, but I'm sure I've seen the wikileaks twitter post a bunch of pro-Trump crap, or at least stuff that aligns pretty neatly with a lot of the crap Trump and his supporters say.

  • PoliticsPoliticsThe Secrets of the US Election: Julian Assange Talks to John PilgerNov 05, 2016 at 9:01 AM

    I'm so over Julian Assange, dude, noone in this country cares that you're holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy, and why the fuck are you a Trump supporter??

    They should've made Sam Bee the main presenter of The Daily Show - she is just amazing.

  • PoliticsPoliticsTrump's history of corruption is mind-boggling. So why is Clinton supposedly the corrupt one?Oct 31, 2016 at 5:36 AM

    Media is right wing, media is misogynistic, list goes on!

  • UKUKWhat is your view on Brexit?Oct 30, 2016 at 8:02 AM

    ;_;

  • PoliticsPolitics[Post deleted by author]Oct 28, 2016 at 12:43 PM

    Yeah parliamentary - we still use FPTP. The devolved parliaments (Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland) use proportional rep I think, and a lot of the parties elect their leaders with runoff voting, but apparently they want to stick with FPTP for voting in our MPs. Some MPs get a lot less than 50% of the vote in some areas, though I've lived in a couple of very safe Conservative seats where the MP does actually get over 50%.

  • PoliticsPolitics[Post deleted by author]Oct 28, 2016 at 12:38 PM

    Yeah, they called it AV for the referendum. We use First Past the Post like most places - the minor parties are opposed to it. We got the referendum because in 2010 the Conservatives were unable to get a majority government so had to enter a coalition with the Lib Dems who would obviously want true proportional representation (probably the fairest of all systems?) but AV was the compromise.

    I think a lot of the anti-AV side focussed on how it would allow fringe parties like the BNP get seats, but now we've voted for Brexit so I don't know how that put anyone off AV.

  • PoliticsPolitics[Post deleted by author]Oct 28, 2016 at 11:41 AM

    Yeah this is why we tried to get Alternative Vote in the UK - you rank your choices and then if no candidate gets more than 50% then the candidate with the lowest number of votes is out and the second place votes on their ballots are distributed amongst the remaining candidates and this continues until someone gets more than 50%. We had a referendum about it in 2011 but apparently most people like unfair voting systems :/

  • PoliticsPoliticsYou'll read one of these five stories on November 9thOct 25, 2016 at 11:21 AM

    As a Brit who only sees US election coverage online - I agree it's gone on far too long now and it's been so draining just watching from over here. Is it really still 2 weeks to go!!!!
