    Are the Brits really at the point where people can't afford a cheese sandwich, a food famous for being one of the cheapest things you can eat? What's going on, what are they suggesting people eat? Do they want people to just forage or something?

    Obviously they just want poor people to die, but come the fuck on, how blatant can you be? I suppose people can't protest about their starvation if they're starving too badly to walk.

      The situation is pretty fucked over here, yeah. Food banks are busier than they've ever been. Councils decided to fund coronation celebrations over food banks when it came down to it. Old people literally froze to death in their own homes because heating bills went through the roof over winter.

      Now our best shot is Kier Starmer, who has just announced himself to be rebooting New-Labour. Many of his advisors and friends are Blairites.

      It's a good thing the Brit politicians care so little for the poor that they're unlikely to have heard of Jordan Neely's murder lest it give them ideas for new laws

      They'd want people foraging for food hanged for trespassing.
