Under these proposals at 17 you’ll be able to vote, join the army and drive a car but not allowed to watch premier league highlights on YouTube on a Saturday night. What an absurd idea.

The UK is heading down a very dystopian path… and the majority of this island is gleefully cheering it on under the guise of “child safety” 🙂
Mind you, none of this would even be a topic of discussion if parents would actually parent their kids…

I think it’s mad that people think they’re banning kids from social media for the kids benefit. It’s to limit their access to news and information and make sure they only grow with the agreed ideology of those in power.

The BBC is at it again.
Dahiye is not simply “where Hezb0llah is based.” It is home to 500,000–800,000 people. It’s where families live, where friends meet in cafés and restaurants, where people work, shop, study, and build their lives.
The choice of language is deliberate, dehumanising an entire community to justify I$raeli attacks on civilians.
Shameful

The UK Government can't deliver enough homes for young people, support social and labour mobility, or reduce the burden of student debt...
But it can ban you from watching YouTube past your bedtime.
Incredible.

The world cup should never happen in america again, this cant be the norm. Kills the flow of the game
First time ever at a World Cup: FIFA forcing 3-min ‘hydration breaks’ in EVERY match, even in air-conditioned stadiums. Officially for player welfare, but we all know it’s ad slots for broadcasters. Turning football into quarters with built-in commercials. Momentum killer. Not a coincidence it happens in the USA.

One day, after his retirement, Barça, PSG, Inter Miami, Argentina should all release training footages of Messi. Genuinely believe we'll all be gobsmacked seeing what his ruthless levels actually are.

All these fuckers ever do is cut welfare whilst at the same time claiming its some shockingly novel policy.
Cutting welfare has always been the fucking policy position.
They just take and take and take. Politicians seem to be clinically incapable of offering *anything*.

Exclusive:
Britain must not be “squeamish” about reducing the welfare bill to fund additional spending on defence, Andy Burnham has said.
The mayor of Greater Manchester said that the government must “listen to” the concerns raised by John Healey, who resigned as defence secretary after accusing the prime minister of jeopardising the security of the nation.
In an interview with The Times he said that “the world has changed” and it is “obvious” that the government is going to have to adjust assumptions about defence spending in response.
He said that rather than implementing “crude cuts” to the welfare budget he favours a “preventative” approach that will provide the support people need to get back into work.
He unveiled plans for a 10-year public investment plan which will require all government procurement to include commitments to spending on apprenticeships and work placements for young people.
“I am not squeamish about saying that the plan would be to reduce the welfare bill. Not at all.
"But it is not the traditional Westminster way of just crude cuts, short-term crude cuts that then create a backlash and create more political turbulence.
"It is actually going to do things that will actually reduce the benefits bill, which is moving towards a more preventative state that makes the right investments to support people into work.”

Andy Burnham says he’s “not squeamish” about cutting welfare spending but is promising pensioners a tax cut, despite pensions making up 50% of welfare spending
