    That's exactly where they're planning on building! The Guardian chose a very misleading image.

    ‘Outdated and unjust’: can we reform global capitalism?

  • I'm glad the results at the locals have led to at least some MPs finding their voices. Haigh, Whittome and Trickett have all spoken out, but they're sort of the usual suspects. This guy is at least a bit new!

    Labour can’t just target Reform or Green voters. Here’s how we get both | Jeevun Sandher MP

  • People also makes this argument about guns, and yet gun controls work!

    You are right, of course, that if someone really wants to hurt lots of people, they will likely find a way to do it. But that's no reason not to put barriers in their way. As for 'punishing the rest of us', I'm not sure that making cars a bit lighter amounts to a punishment!

  • Bicycling @lemmy.world

    How do we put a stop to road violence and curb excessive car use? Look at how we dealt with guns

  • Objectively, both things are true! But I tend to think Labour is the one with the power and so they're the ones who should be changing, not the relatively powerless seven voters.

    ‘We’ll never out-Farage Farage on migration – and it’d be wrong to try’ – LabourList

  • 100%. Point is that if Labour had appealed to their left flank, they'd have held the seat!

  • Assuming we're going back far enough, antibiotics. Cure one person of the bubonic plague or tuberculosis and people will start taking you seriously.

  • I bet there were more than seven votes for the Greens and Lib Dems combined.

  • It's funny because when the stock market was doing great under Biden, Trump said it was because everyone knew he was going to win.

  • The BMA residents conference did pass the motion, but it won't be official policy unless it passes at the annual meeting this year:

    Resident doctors working in the NHS also condemned the supreme court’s ruling on gender as having “no basis in science or medicine”. Medics at the British Medical Association’s (BMA) resident doctors conference in London passed a motion stating that “attempting to impose a rigid binary has no basis in science or medicine”. While the motion was passed at the conference it will not become BMA policy unless voted on at the union’s annual meeting later this year.

  • The only people who can quit their “pointless” jobs in the name of “moral ambition” are those who are lucky enough to not need them in the first place.

    The article does say exactly that.

  • This is it. The temptation to slap on reciprocal tariffs is obvious but it's generally self-defeating. Much better to do things this way and free up trade elsewhere.

  • Her instincts are the worst. Imagine being a conservative and not being able to exploit a 'rally round the flag' moment!

    Always makes me laugh that the 'New' Forest is getting on for a thousand years old.

  • Again, you've written quite a long comment, almost none of which is pertinent.

    Music is not math. Some aspects of it can be expressed mathematically, yes, but that's not the same thing.

    Imagining the idea 'I'd like to see an image of a lemming', which is what you've done, does require some imagination. However, the output is not art because the process used to go from your 'prompt' to the image was not a creative one. (Also, this isn't entirely pertinent, but the image output is really bad. If it had been made by a person and otherwise looked like this, I would still say that it was just ugly, bad art.)

    You may well be a creative and imaginative person; I don't know you and I wouldn't want to judge! However, your image of a lemming was not the result of a creative process and so is not art.

  • Current AI is lacking both.

    Only word wrong here is 'current'. AI will never have creativity or craftmanship. It's impossible.

  • You're lazy and talentless, and you like how it allows you to steal the hard work and talent of others.
