Whilst I was a teenager I bemoaned how little autonomy I had compared with my earlier peers, but *God*, I got lucky not to be a teenager now. State-sanctioned arrested development. You're 8 until you're 18 then you're expected to be able to handle all of adult life overnight.

It’s not under 16s that will be banned It’s anybody who doesn’t want to hand their identification over to 1.) the government and 2.) via untrustworthy 3rd party services who will not secure your data properly

"We will be banning under-16s from going to public parks in order to prevent them getting molested. We will also be banning all over-16s to prevent them doing the molesting, unless you give us a full 3D scan of your entire body. If you disagree with this you're a paedophile btw"

2024 Lib Dem voters are more likely to back Andy Burnham against Ed Davey (58%) than Ed Davey against Kemi Badenoch (48%) Seems bad.
Andy Burnham continues to lead his key opponents on who Britons think would make the better PM Burnham: 40% (-2 from 26-27 Aug) Badenoch: 28% (+2) Burnham: 50% (-2) Farage: 22% (=) Burnham: 49% (-1) Polanski: 7% (-1) Burnham: 47% (+3) Davey: 7% (-2)

If this is actually true, then that comment about being the most authoritarian government yet would be 100% true
I read the reports coming out of Manchester this morning and I am genuinely speechless. Andy Burnham’s old political machine has just been caught secretly intercepting and censoring emails sent by the public to elected politicians. What were those emails actually about? A resident was asking hard questions about the £55 million in taxpayer loans Burnham handed to Abu Dhabi property developers when he was Mayor, with zero affordable housing requirements. Instead of letting elected councillors read the concerns of their constituents, unelected bureaucrats quietly diverted the emails straight to the legal department to be buried. The politicians had absolutely no idea their personal inboxes were being filtered by the state. The council claims they had to intercept the messages because of potential litigation. It is a complete lie. Internal correspondence proves the city solicitor asked for this specific resident to be blocked months before any legal threat even existed. You vote for local representatives to hold the system accountable. But the second a citizen asks where Burnham sent public money in a Gulf state property deal, his political syndicate builds a secret digital firewall to protect the investment. This is not a functioning democracy. This is a captured corporate cartel running a cover-up for the Prime Minister, and the national media is letting them get away with it in broad daylight.

It is perhaps worth noting at this point that the NE Combined Authority recently awarded a Finnish company a contract to develop AI technology to monitor and filter social media comments which may be deemed to be hostile or threatening to the regional mayor.

I told ChatGPT, "Design this room based on what you know about me"

This article describes accommodating trans people as a disease infecting society. I would prefer it if it was hyperbolic to call that Nazi shit, but it isn’t.

The reality is that the gender-critical are quite happy to hurt women (check notes, Girlguiding, The WI, Labour Womens Conference) in their paranoia and hate of trans women.
