It's more that it's a tactical choice to avoid polarising people. There's nothing material to gain by attending the protests, and much to lose in terms of pissing off the far right more and destabilising a precarious situation.
The shit-stirrers like Farage would immediately whip up some bullshit that Labour MPs attending anti-fascist protests is "proof" that the government are choosing to politically punish the far right protesters. The last thing Starmer wants is a resurgence of disorder.
Even though being anti-fascist is an obvious virtue, I presume it's to avoid the appearance of prosecuting the rioters for political reasons. Starmer wants to make it purely about the lawbreaking rather than their political aims.
Second Mihon. It's an all-in-one downloader and reader, and supports reading offline.
That's not denial, it's looking at the evidence.
It's not used as a healthcare metric. This is just debunking reports that a healthcare policy was directly causing an "explosion" in suicides.
We'll see what he tells parliament, but IMO it's reasonable for him to follow the science, get more trials done ASAP and approve the medicine if the evidence shows. As long as these kids get appropriate care in the meantime without delay.
Approving medicine counter to scientific advice sets a bad precedent, may cause more issues, and might attract lawsuits from terfs etc.
We have our black bin collected fortnightly and we usually half-fill it. Three of us and pets.
Our kitchen bin only really is used for non-recyclable plastic and pet waste. Everything else goes in the food bin or recycling wheelie bin. Our recycling wheelie bin is usually completely overflowing, whereas many of my neighbours completely overfill the black bin and barely even bother with the recycling and food bins.
Government should only be afraid of losing the next election - they should never be afraid of their life or family's life for doing their job.
Politicians need to balance opinions from different groups of people, so even the best politicians can never please everyone all of the time. Taking choices you disagree with does not mean they should be afraid for their lives.
As much as I disagree with many choices of politicians, they should never be threatened in any way.
My son is on a 5 year waiting list... maybe we should holiday in Ukraine this year ๐ค
This is getting boring; there's been so many articles about this over the last few weeks.
Starmer's and Reeves' statements about this do not totally contradict. They've both said they want to invest, but they've decided that they won't staple themselves to the ยฃ28bn figure due to the Tories fucking shit up in the economy. I can't say I necessarily agree with this, but that's what has happened.
Oh man, I haven't heard that one before. Bona fide quality conspiracy theory ๐
