one characteristic is “a yearning to connect with something bigger than myself”.
I think I’ve seen this kind of thing demonstrated on particular websites.
Nyet, the commenting English has very excellent.
This is the first time I’ve heard of Hindu extremism in the UK. As far as religions go they tend to fly under the radar a bit.
Do you mean specifically r/UK? That sub has totally changed over the past few years. The same kind of articles keep getting posted and invited heavily.
What does it say if you ask the same but for the US or a European country?
Can I run your patched version of docker on docker?
RIP green bin. The black bin can’t even bear to look.
Do you need a cushion to kneel to for the prayers? We’ve suddenly got a spare.
It’ll escalate into many pounds I’m sure!
I’m not there actually was a big surge towards Labour, Reform split the Tory vote.
My general feeling though is that, so far, there doesn’t seem to be any ridiculous scandals or corruption like there was before.
There’s always going to be criticism no matter who’s in power, but at the moment they seem ok. Not exactly filling me with any promise of things to get better, but there’s no feeling of doom like there has been either.
I hope for electoral reform. For me, it’s why I don’t vote Labour because they’ll never be in favour of it.
But other than that I hope for the cost of living to improve. Good quality housing to be more affordable and available. Utility and transport companies brought back into public ownership. A much more progressive drug policy and hopefully some kind of plan for returning to the EU. An education system where teachers aren’t burning out and more schools to reduce classroom sizes.
Honestly I’m not really sure what Labours vision is. Maybe that’s a me problem but with other parties you do kind of get a feel for what they’re true aims are.
But the Conservatives, who initiated moves towards a DRS in 2017, opposed the measure and raised concerns over the cost implications on businesses
So they opposed the very thing they tried to create? Can’t have labour taking the credit I guess!
Ah 😂 I’ll switch it around again. Starting to feel a bit like the hokey cokey…
Ah I could read it fine - I’ll update with an archive link in a sec
I think it’s acceptable. I’m actually surprised it’s this long to be honest. Personally I’m absolutely against the death penalty, I’m glad we don’t have it here.
I’m not sure why you’re getting downvoted for your question…
Weather warning bingo!
No worries - I understand why you put it here and why the other communities don’t seem more of a natural fit! At the time of your posting, there was no “No politics” rule and so it makes sense that you posted here.
but I’m not sure what locking the original achieves - it’s not like there was a huge, spewing argument in the comments or anything.
I was trying to strike a balance of not being over-the top and deleting the post, which wouldn’t have been fair seeing as it technically wasn’t against the rules at the time, but also preventing the post from gaining even more traction and being an example of what is allowed - I figured the locking would highlight that it’s an example of a post that wouldn’t be allowed going forward. I hope that makes sense.
Maybe you’ve hit upon the need for a UK based political memes community? 😜
Controversially, I pronounce it like “scone”
Barm.
There are no other answers.
Maybe it’s how it’s prounced in Received Pronunciation (RP), I’m sure the British media is rife with those types.
PS: There is !memes@feddit.uk but it’s kinda quiet.
