Brexit: Labour will seek re-write of deal, Starmer says

Jump

  • I did, I just wish a hadn't. I've read my fair share of this type of moral absolutist drivel in my time but I went through this one anyway despite the conclusion being clear from the get go.

  • My assertion was that not everything Blair did was wrong. You posted a link saying this article disagrees, but the article literally starts with saying not everything Blair did was wrong.

  • Does it? This article starts with several examples admitting that

    Blair delivered a lot for the working class from the back seat of a limo.

  • Pragmatism ≠ sellout.

    Papa Smurf never compromised on his ideals, and never got anywhere near the position to put them into practice. Blair delivered a lot for the working class from the back seat of a limo.

    • Road casualties have become normal in Britain. But there is another way

    Jump

  • I don't know. Maybe because as a rider you cannot be expected to know your own speed without a speedometer, maybe.

    Still, given that this is the rule and it's well documented and publicised, it's a bit boring to having to explain to yet another gammony armchair warrior on those forums. So I stopped going there.

  • Drivers were outraged and wanted cyclists to adhere to the speed limits (good luck without a speedometer).

    I've found myself dragged into online conversations several times over the years regarding speed limits in Royal Parks, especially Richmond Park which is notorious for its rat running drivers.

    Motorists always managed to work themselves up into a frenzy over "speeding" cyclists, no matter how many times it was pointed out to them that in the park the speed limit applies to motorised vehicles only. Cyclists could not possibly be speeding as there was no speed limit applicable to them on those privately managed roads.

  • Same guy, same publication a year prior found that not only do cyclists break the law for different reasons, they also do it less frequently than motorists.

    • Europeans, what is something that Americans have/do that makes no sense to you?

    Jump

  • Fair point.

    I'm not familiar with RvW, but I'd suspect that in Europe it's largely member state competency, and the more religious societies might have stricter rules. I know Poland is very prohibitive, and so was Ireland until very recently when a highly publicised human tragedy turned people against the rigid rules of the Church.

  • Oh I didn't mean you specifically, it's just a general comment on how policies of the European centre right parties are labelled in the American media. The Overton window is shifted to the left in Europe.

  • It takes a bit of effort to avoid amazon, and it does cost a bit more in money and convenience, but it is possible to not buy from them.

    (It's virtually impossible not to use their web services though unless you are a member of an uncontacted tribe in the, you guessed it, Amazon jungle).
