yes, yes, "targeting," "cracking down," "stamping out," those well-known, very effective methods for stopping people being poor and homeless https://twitter.com/GMB/status/1640219591648456705
This sums up why capitalists shouldn't be in charge https://leasticoulddo.com/comic/20230327
I'm crying with laughter here.
If you needed a demonstration of aristo entitlement ...

24 years ago today, NATO began its illegal war against Yugoslavia.
When the media criticized the bombing - NATO bombed the media outlet. When China criticized the bombing - NATO bombed the Chinese embassy. Then a criminal tribunal was set up that would not investigate NATO.

Oh no worries then since the cops breaking the arm of an elderly deaf woman was just a “misunderstanding”

Barely a mention of the French pension protests until they inconvenience a toff

I've just invented an app that auto-generates prescriptions from a patient's description of their symptoms. Soon we won't need doctors!
Instead, we'll just need patients with medical training.

So I attempted to work with ChatGPT on an original coding problem, starting with a set of business requirements. After nearly 3 hours, I'm giving up. I've been unable to get a complete source listing from it, particularly as ot rewrites the code on every attempt.

I genuinely hope labour does have a plan to fix the structural failures of Britain’s economy, because the 49% of people willing to vote for them will be extremely disappointed if that plan turns out to be ASBOs and skills wallets.
After Kwarteng's screw up I had slightly less money in one of my savings accounts than I had put in.
Sit down.

🚨 Not satisfied with raising taxes on doctor's pensions. Keir Starmer now wants to raid your hard earned savings.

Apparently after about a hundred years of the completely unsuccessful war on drugs what Labour thinks we need is more war on drugs. Alternatively, we could look at countries where drug policy is based in evidence rather than by the right wing cult. Grownups, apparently.

Last night, the gates of my hometown's city hall were set on fire
If you're wondering what is going on in #France, this is about a lot more than pension reform
The pension reform is unjust in & of itself (women & poor people will be the ones most impacted). But the rage French people are expressing right now is about Macron's hatred for democracy. Since his reelection just one year ago, he has bypassed parliament 11 times, more than all govs in the previous 20 years put together

“The rule of law is the foundation for everything. Margaret Thatcher called it the first duty of government - and she was right about that” – Keir Starmer.

Someone told him there's a by-election in the Sellafield constituency. https://twitter.com/kennardmatt/status/1638814794361761792

All these people saying "the chancellor should do X or Y in the budget"
Grow up
He'll line the pockets of the wealthy, kick the poor and disadvantaged in the nads, lie about it, and then fund some schemes so his mates can pocket even more money
Stop pretending Tories have ears

We're supposed to simultaneously believe that Johnson is one of the greatest intellects of modern English politics and someone incapable of understanding simple rules around social distancing.

I'm looking forward to maintaining code that nobody on the team wrote and doesn't necessarily work. https://twitter.com/satyanadella/status/1638575732032143360
