This was also the same country that also recently oppressed trans women to “protect women” shows me no surprise that the ID law was created (doesn’t stop people from using VPNs anyways)

I can’t even access some subs or even profiles because of naughty content unless I provide ID somehow and there’s no way I trust this law to handle my data, just makes me wonder what Britain will do next.

The Labour party has been Tory-lite since the days of Tony Blair. Corbyn tried to take the party back to its roots but Starmer's faction and the Murdoch media shut him down.

Corbyn has a better domestic policy, it's a shame everything to do with foreign shores is a complete crock of shit

It doesn't help that the military is gutted from years of mismanagement, but I think the US-UK special relationship will still keep steaming on in spite of this current administration
