Totnes woman has gone very right wing lately. There's a lot of bad around Exeter like all the EDF and nazi posters on lamposts etc.

Why on earth do you keep making up this nonsense?

Number of EDF and Nazi posters spotted in Exeter in last few years = 0

Expects a pathetic attempt involving dragging up old article about one off incident

episode 1...

What’s happening in the Devon town of Totnes? The small town of Totnes in Devon is known for its warmth and open-mindedness, gong baths and healing crystals, but a fault line has emerged between the minority who’ve been drawn in by disinformation laced with hate and those who are fighting against it. Some in the town were drawn into a conspiracy theory movement during the pandemic, one whose monthly marches and rallies persist to this day. A conspiracy theory newspaper called The Light seems to have played a key part in the division there. BBC disinformation and social media correspondent Marianna Spring investigates how the theories that dominate its pages are changing the town.

Four day week is the quickest and simplest way to improve standards of living, physical and mental health outcomes and reduce CO2.

Also will help maintain full employment in the face of AI nicking everyones jobs.

It's long overdue

But it's going to face a load of opposition from brain-washed and brain-dead "protestant work ethic" nutters and other "stuck in the past" types.

Saw that coming

How many policies is someone allowed to disagree with before charging their vote?

4 day working is the way forward, I think all studies have shown there are multiple positives and barely any negatives.

This right here is one of the many reasons I love this man. He comes across as so likeable to me and actually seems like a normal person when he’s in front of regular people; it’s such a polar opposite to Sunak.

20%cut in output means 20% less of what we want to have.

More than 800 serving officials in the US and Europe have signed a statement warning that their own governments' policies on the Israel-Gaza war could amount to "grave violations of international law".

Quote

The "transatlantic statement", a copy of which was passed to the BBC, says their administrations risk being complicit in "one of the worst human catastrophes of this century" but that their expert advice has been sidelined.

It's not a 20% drop in output tho as proven many times

It's 20% less input. So a 20%  drop in output if effort is equal across all hours.
