@oldyzach Wow, this brings back memories! What an original concept it was for a game, I seem to recall however that my 11 year old self at the time struggled to get to grips with the complexity of it.

I'm delighted for Nigel Farage. According to @nberpubs, Brexit gave our country a 6-8% reduction in GDP per capita, a 12-18% reduction in Investment & a 3-4% reduction in productivity. But it gave Nigel Farage a gift of £5millon. So that's alright.

Nigel Farage tells @MrHarryCole the £5m gift is a "reward" for Brexit Says it's "nothing to do with the Electoral Commission" and "I'm not in the least bit concerned"

@oldyzach Yeah, and establishing a dense industrial zone is obviously best represented by someone ‘popping’ the inside of their cheek with their finger 🤣

@BBCNews A £5 million reward for Brexit, while the only ‘reward’ the rest of us got was a 6% hit to GDP, political chaos, removal of our rights & freedoms & higher prices. Yet people are still prepared to forget all that & vote for this lying grifter in their millions. The mind boggles.

@PolitlcsUK A £5 million gift for helping to enable something that has taken 6% off our GDP. Nice one 👍🏼

Brilliant song from an amazing album. Wish I didn’t live 4,000 miles away from these great Appalachian musicians.

About a million years ago my dad took this photo of me overlooking our home town. Life in a northern town.

@AndrewMackeyUK Photo taken from similar spot in 2021. Lots of young trees now in the foreground which would possibly make recreating your picture difficult. The children’s park you can see in bottom left of your picture is still there.

@disnenchanted @ms123447 @kokeshimum All fair points, but anyone with half a brain cell knows that all of those issues would only be worse under Reform, only truly left wing parties would resolve those issues, so why do people keep voting for even more right wing policies? 🤷‍♂️

@ms123447 @kokeshimum For me, who used to be Labour supporter, the continuation of austerity has angered me. Particularly for councils as the impact of cuts to them is felt by all. The attacks upon disabled people are unprecedented. The continued privatisation of the NHS and no water renationalising.

What are the “genuine concerns” of Reform voters? Keep being told Labour ignored them. But what are they?

It’s 2031 in the UK. Nigel Farage is the prime minister. A loaf of bread now costs £7. The pensioners who voted to “get their country back” are having to pay for healthcare which they blame on brown people. The BBC headline is about Zack Polanski drinking a full fat coke.
