- Comment on BBC News - BBC senior staff told to 'step back' from duties following row 1 week ago:
Finding the actual records/videos is not trivial, which is why I’m asking if anyone has already done that and can provide links.

Actions speak louder than words.
- Comment on BBC News - BBC senior staff told to 'step back' from duties following row 1 week ago:
we heard in the House the absolute shocking stories of the impact this has had on the Jewish community
Very curious what these stories were. Anyone have any links to how Bob Vylan’s set impacted the Jewish community?

If you just click on the “More details” button your question is answered explicitly:
I believe that such provisions may inadvertently incentivise illegal migration, particularly via the English Channel.
- Comment on Angela Rayner: I’ve taken all sorts — but we won’t legalise cannabis 3 weeks ago:
There are a whole bunch of clinics. It’s not infeasible that an entire town has switched although probably unlikely, alas.
- Comment on Angela Rayner: I’ve taken all sorts — but we won’t legalise cannabis 3 weeks ago:
You realise it’s legal to use cannabis in the UK with a prescription? Cannabis was rescheduled in 2018.

to begin fixing the country?
The country only appears in need of fixing from the perspective of those without money or power. That is, you and me. From the perspective of the people running the country, who have both money and power, the country is working fine and there’s nothing that needs fixing.

If you have to ask other people whether you should be a doctor, you should not be a doctor.

Giving up advancements in science and technology is stagnation.
That’s not what I’m suggesting. I’m suggesting giving up some particular, potential advancements in science and tecnology, which is a whole different kettle of fish and does not imply stagnation.
Thinking it’s a good idea to not do anything until people are fed and housed is stagnation.
Why do you think that?

stagnation
Why do you see feeding and housing everyone as stagnation?

The people who are motivated by advancing technology, aren’t motivated to overcome corruption, incline equality, to replace economic systems, etc.
That seems a bit presumptuous. Why do you think people who are motivated to advance technology aren’t motivated to overcome corruption, etc.?
All you’d be doing is stifling innovation, improvement, a reason for hope in the future
I’m confused. I haven’t suggested doing anything. I’m very curious what the “doing” is that you’ve conjured me suggesting?
- Comment on The British jet engine that failed in the 'Valley of Death' 5 weeks ago:
We already have the resources and technology to do this
But not the will. Because people are focused on building spaceplanes instead of focused on what matters.
- Comment on The British jet engine that failed in the 'Valley of Death' 5 weeks ago:
Here’s an idea: why not take care of people’s basic needs like food and shelter, and then build a spaceplane?
