Its the principles behind it though. I don't even like fruit and nut Cadbury (caramel master race) but even I'm annoyed because it's another example of an American company ruining everything.
Do I really need to start linking Facebook pictures about the price of Freddos?

This is why I couldn't be a politician. I'd end up telling the public how fucking stupid and infuriating they are in every speech.Imperializt Russia wrote:The Nihilistic view wrote:
Except that won't happen. The public will be pissed off at doctors the support for them will dry up and they will lose. That's pretty much 90% of strikes from public services nowadays. The public in general are sick of them but the blame the people striking not the government. Probably to do with most people are not part of a union nowadays but they have to be careful what they do. Rushing headlong into a strike is the worst course of action a union could take nowadays for and because of various reasons.
This is probably especially true with the NHS, the public want take kindly to it once people are put at risk over it which is what would happen due to staffing levels dropping during a strike. The last time Doctors went on strike was in 2012 with GPs, from what I remember in the end a majority did not approve of the strike.
I think currently they have the support of the public but going on strike risks that once the effects of the strike are felt.
What it is, is the public being entitled ninnies, who don't want to be inconvenienced by services they feel entitled to receive.
The plight of a junior doctor matters jack shit if they can't see their GP on a Thursday.
This is pretty circular because of course we are entitled to state services. But somewhere along the line, people stopped understanding or caring and now they're just something we expect to be there rain wind or shine (rather than an important asset to be protected!) and if it takes a hilarious staff turnover to make it happen, well then I guess that's what it takes to make it happen.

Because many of us are shocked and appalled by the implications for the Middle East peace process.
ISIS is bad enough, but can you imagine the reaction of our allied Sultans in the region once they find out that we're planning on putting their wives into our chocolate bars?
There'll be hell to pay, mark my words.

I'll admit, this made me chuckle.
On that note, here I am sitting back in Canada thinking "Hm, wonder if my old student union at UCL (UCLU) has done anything incredibly fucking stupid and filled with hypocrisy". And lo, they doth have.

"Who's to blame? Hint: it's the media.
How many of the people surveyed will have met a refugee? How many will have read hysterical editorials or heard bullshit by politicians feeding on fear, talking about hordes and swarms of forren-speaking rapists coming over here, taking our xboxes, demanding mansions and white girls, somehow never working a day in their lives and stealing all the jobs by working 17 hours a day for no wages. "
tbh i agree with this analysis
