I know we're in the english thread but have you considered food tastes nice?

You can have nice food and not become fat. I like good food, I also like working out, and playing sports, and going for gay little walks to see castles and nature. I don't understand how you just not do anything about it when you're hitting 300lbs, that's like...blimp size?

I don't think many men get into feeder relationships unless they're a homosexual.

That or they have a thing about massive breasts, bellies etc.

They just want a plus-sized sex doll, because that's the only type of women who won't say no to them - immobile, mentally immature and vulnerable fat women.

I've never been fat. So this may be me sounding insane, but how do you reach 300lbs+ without being actually mentally ill?

Never just one answer to this, but kids carrying their youthful eating habits into adulthood can explain it, partly because they're not seeing or realising the effects just piling crap into their body is doing to them or thinking in the long term because they're sub-12 years old.

This can put some of the blame on parents, who either passed their own habits onto their kids; never put in place any restrictions on what they could and could not eat; or could have done something as simple as giving their child equal food proportions to their own, giving the child an adult-number of calories when they should be having a third less.

If you get fat early you're probably gonna carry that gunt until you actively something about it, which if you gained it from a series of bad habits acquired during youth, will probably gonna make it even harder to shake off, and not just because "shaking" it technically a physical activity and that scares them. They essentially need to break habits they've had for years.

I think a lot of people who get fat in adulthood probably ate a lot but evened it out with plenty of physical activity. But if the physical activity levels go down, and your eating habits are unchanged, you'll start ballooning.

I stated I was so I should answer.
You're probably right, you can't be mentally healthy to get to that point but I would say it's closer to giving up, a fatigue than an illness. The fight against every psychologist employed by fast/junk food marketing is constant and life for the average Joe is tiring, it's easy to give up.
That's why we all admire the fat person at the gym, pool or parkrun. they've been defeated and got up again.

News rundown.

Liverpool still hates FOI.

https://archive.ph/3ziBj

A council has been told it could be held in contempt of court over failures to provide information to the public quickly enough.
By law, public bodies have to respond to Freedom of Information (FOI) requests within 20 working days, but Liverpool City Council was found to be missing the deadline almost half of the time.
The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has now issued the council with an enforcement notice demanding it sets out how it is going to improve, and warning it could be held in contempt of court if it does not.
The authority said it recognised it needed to improve and had a plan in place.

The ICO said that between 1 January and 31 July, the council was responding within 20 days to 56% of requests.
As of August, it had a backlog of 75 overdue requests.
The ICO's enforcement notice said the council had to make sure all outstanding requests were answered by 8 January 2026.
Liberal Democrat opposition leader Carl Cashman said he had heard of people waiting up to 18 months for a response.
He said: "Residents deserve answers, journalists deserve access, and opposition councillors deserve scrutiny."
The council had been warned in 2023 to improve its responses to FOIs.
The enforcement notice issued this week said that if the council did not comply, it could face legal action, and ultimately could be found to be in contempt of court.
A Liverpool City Council spokesperson said: "We support the rights of people to have appropriate access to information held by the council and recognise the need to improve the consistency of response times to requests under the FOI Act.
"We are implementing a comprehensive plan to improve performance and will respond positively to all the requirements set out by the Information Commissioner."

The Scots are threatening council workers taking down their flags, inexplicably there are not hundreds of articles calling them racist.

A council has suspended the removal of saltire flags from lampposts after workers faced threats and intimidation.
Aberdeenshire Council said it had requested the assistance of Police Scotland before the operation would resume.
Flags have been put up in towns and cities across Scotland after a social media campaign by a group behind an anti-asylum seeker protest.
Falkirk Council also said workers had been threatened. It said the saltires were put up without permission and posed a safety threat.
Aberdeenshire Council said: "Abuse is being reported to Police Scotland. Removal has been suspended for today.
"The assistance of Police Scotland will be requested to allow removal to resume."
Aberdeen City Council also confirmed that it was removing flags.

Save Our Future and Our Kids Future - one of the Facebook pages behind the flags campaign - said it was "disgusted" by the councils' response.
It said it had now started fundraising to buy more flags.
Police Scotland said any decision to remove flags was a "matter for the local authority".
Falkirk Council said the flags had been removed for "safety reasons".
A spokesperson added: "In some instances council employees suffered intimidating behaviour from people which prevented them completing this task.
"This is unacceptable and the council will liaise with Police Scotland to take action against those responsible."

Aberdeenshire Council said it had seen a sharp rise in flags being flown from streetlights and reports of flags being painted on roads.
"Sadly, we have also seen a rise in our staff being threatened when taking them down," they added.
"It is entirely unacceptable to threaten any of our staff carrying out their jobs, and we will be asking police to get involved."
They said it was an offence to "hang anything from street lights, or to damage the road in any way".
"Any unauthorised installations will be removed and handed in to the local police station where the owners can collect them," they said.

Meanwhile, in Glasgow videos on social media show people climbing lampposts with a ladder to cut down flags in the Maryhill area.
A Facebook group called The Tartan Team, which claims to be behind the flags in Maryhill said: "Many many many more flags will be going up.
"It's going to be covered over the next couple of weeks. You won't be able to go anywhere without seeing our beautiful flag."
Glasgow City Council urged people not to attach flags to lampposts for "personal and public safety".
A spokesperson said: "This issue will be managed appropriately within the scope of our available resources."

'People are fed up'

Pat Jamieson lives in the Tollcross area of Glasgow, where flags have also been put up.
He said people were fed up with their money going "towards other things instead of our own people".
He said: "The people in Scotland are showing that they're fed up with all the immigration coming into our country.
"We feel sorry for these people, but why should we have to pay for these people with all of the things that are going on in the world."

How did this start?
The spread of saltire flags in Scotland comes after similar scenes in England, where union jacks and St George's flags were hung on lampposts and painted on traffic islands.
Groups on social media, such as the Midlands-based Weoley Warriors, have been encouraging people to take part.
They describe themselves as a "group of proud English men with a common goal to show Birmingham and the rest of the country of how proud we are of our history, freedoms and achievements".
They have raised more than £21,000 through a crowdfunding campaign for "flags, poles and cable ties".
In some other areas, the raising of flags appears to be spontaneous, coinciding with a highly charged political time in the UK when it comes to national identity and belonging.
There have been protests outside some hotels housing asylum seekers where flags have featured heavily among the placards.

Vapid idiot says it's only acceptable to fly flags during the world cup (Telegraph so hyperbole is through the roof)

https://archive.ph/F0d75

Lily Allen has criticised the “sheer volume” of people flying the St George’s Cross and said the flag is “only acceptable” during football tournaments.
The British singer-songwriter, 40, made the comment in light of the Operation Raise the Colours campaign, which has encouraged members of the public to display patriotic flags across the country.
Allen told the Miss Me? podcast: “I mean, I think the only acceptable time for St George’s Cross is if England have made it into the finals of the Euros or the World Cup.
“That is, for me, the only time that we need to see those flags.”
She said she was driving on the motorway when she noticed the “sheer volume of St George’s Crosses and Union Jacks being hung from bridges and painted badly on roundabouts”, adding that it made her “think about what is going on here”.

The display of patriotic flags in public has become a contentious issue in recent weeks, as Portsmouth city council said it would remove St George’s crosses painted on road markings.

Similarly, Dorset council leader Nick Ireland stated that the movement is “intimidating” residents, claiming the St George’s flag has been “co-opted by certain far-Right groups to promote their agendas.”
Allen also remarked that St George himself would have ended up in a migrant hotel.
On hearing that patron saint of England, Saint George, was not actually from England, and had connections to Palestine, she said: “You couldn’t write this s---.”
Saint George was born in modern-day Turkey in about 270AD, and was buried in Roman Palestine, now Lod in Israel.
Discussing what would happen to St George these days, Allen said: “No, he’d be being put up at a hotel and...’ What’s your name? You say St. George? Come, come. We’ve got a Premier Travel Inn with your name all over it’.”

Here's Lily at the Brit awards 15 years ago.

Scots decide to throw another ruling that the UK will have to overrule so that they can scream about how evil it is that they are being stopped from showing those filthy fucking Jews what for.

The Scottish government is to pause new awards of public money to arms companies supplying Israel, John Swinney has announced.
The first minister said there was plausible evidence that Israel was committing genocide in Gaza - an accusation the Israeli government rejects.
He called for the recognition of a Palestinian state - a move the UK government has said it will do this month if Israel does not meet certain conditions, including a ceasefire.
While tightening restrictions for Israel, Swinney also announced his government would lift a ban on public funding for munitions, allowing for increased support for Ukraine and UK defence.
In a statement to parliament, Swinney said the Scottish government could not ignore "prima facie evidence" that Israel was committing genocide.
As he addressed MSPs, a Palestinian flag was flown above the government's headquarters at St Andrew's House.
The first minister said the move would show "Scotland's solidarity" with Palestinians.

https://archive.ph/o/uBct3/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgp5z1vvj5o
He said: "Previously, we have provided business grants and investment support to companies involved in the design, production, supply and support for military equipment, technologies and services."
Swinney told parliament that was a necessary duty of government, citing the war in Ukraine to underline the importance of defence.
The first minister said: "In recognition of that changed international landscape, the Scottish government will lift the restriction that we have applied on the use of support for the production of munitions, but in the face of genocide, there can be no business as usual.
"We will pause new awards of public money to arms companies whose products or services are provided to countries where there is plausible evidence of genocide being committed by that country - that will include Israel."

The pause will apply to funding from the government, the Scottish National Investment Bank and the nation's enterprise agencies.
The Scottish government was recently accused of "student union politics" by the UK government over its long-standing policy of not providing public funding for munitions.
The funding, according to ministers, is usually provided for apprenticeships with arms firms.
However, Swinney vowed that money already pledged for apprenticeships at firms affected by the decision would be honoured.
The first minister also announced that 20 children injured in Gaza would be brought to Scotland for medical treatment, while £400,000 was pledged for a rapidly deployable hospital for use in Gaza.
Swinney called on Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer to withdraw from the UK-Israel free trade agreement.
The Labour government suspended talks to upgrade that deal in May, with Foreign Secretary David Lammy calling the Israeli treatment of Palestinians "an affront to the values of the British people".
Sir Keir has said his government will recognise a Palestinian state unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire, commits to a long-term sustainable peace that delivers a two-state solution, and allows the United Nations to restart the supply of aid to Gaza.

Scottish Conservative leader Russell Findlay said the situation in Gaza was a "blight on humanity".
However, he told MSPs that SNP ministers should use their powers "to improve people's lives here in Scotland", citing drugs deaths, crime, and the NHS.
Findlay said many people would see the proposal to recognise a Palestinian state as "premature, impractical and counter-productive".
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said the situation in Gaza was "beyond intolerable", adding: "The illegal occupation and genocide must end now."
Those comments mark a significant point of difference from Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, who has never accused Israel of genocide.
Sarwar called for an immediate ceasefire, the free flow of humanitarian aid, the release of all hostages and a two-state solution to the conflict.
Scottish Green co-leader Ross Greer welcomed the first minister's announcement but called on him to go further and urge all Scottish businesses to boycott Israel, a call Swinney rejected.
Jamie Livingstone, head of Oxfam Scotland, also welcomed the statement.
He said: "Pausing new public funding to arms companies in Scotland implicated in this devastation is a vital act of solidarity. It must be implemented quickly and robustly."

The UN's top court, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), is considering a case brought by South Africa that argues that Israel is committing genocide.
The ICJ, which is yet to deliver a ruling, has granted Israel an extension until January 2026 to present its defence.
Israel has alleged that the ICJ case is motivated by antisemitism.
According to the Hamas-run Ministry of Health, more than 60,000 people have been killed in the conflict since October 2023 - when Hamas fighters attacked Israel - killing about 1,200 people. That sparked a massive Israeli military response.
UN agencies have said there is "man-made mass starvation" in Gaza, blaming the humanitarian crisis on Israel, which controls the entry of all supplies to the territory.
Israel has insisted there are no restrictions on aid deliveries and that there is "no starvation".
Earlier this week the world's leading association of genocide scholars declared that Israel was committing genocide in Gaza.
The International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) said that Israel's conduct met the legal definition as laid out in the UN convention on genocide.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry said the IAGS report was based on "Hamas lies" and poor research.
A spokesperson added that it was Israel that was the victim of genocide.

Speaking of Israel and armaments

An Israeli arms manufacturer’s facility in Bristol which was repeatedly targeted by Palestine Action appears to have closed unexpectedly.
The Elbit Systems UK site in the Aztec West business park was the subject of dozens of protests by Palestine Action, including on 1 July, days before the direct action group was banned under the Terrorism Act.

Elbit has held the lease since 2019 and it was not due to expire until 2029. The protests included blockades using lock-ons, occupying the roof, smashing windows and dousing the site in red paint.
Elbit Systems UK is a subsidiary of Elbit Systems, which is Israel’s largest arms producer. Elbit Systems, which had revenues of $6.8bn (£5bn) last year, describes itself as the “backbone” of the Israel Defense Force’s (IDF’s) drone fleet, which has been used extensively in the assault on Gaza.

Its portfolio also includes systems for military aircraft and helicopters, armed remote control boats, land vehicles and for command and control.
Elbit Systems UK did not respond to the Guardian’s request for comment about the status of the site. But the property, located within a commercial and industrial park on the outskirts of Bristol where the M5 and M4 meet, was deserted when the Guardian visited this week.
There were no staff present aside from a security guard stationed in a vehicle parked outside the premises.
The site was previously owned by Somerset Council, which was also targeted by Palestine Action before selling the property last year. The Guardian attempted to contact the current landlords. Fences and barriers had been put up around the site after it was targeted by protesters.
The Aztec West facility is a different Elbit facility to that in Filton, Bristol, which was also targeted by Palestine Action and in relation to which 24 people are awaiting trial on charges including criminal damage, violent disorder and aggravated burglary. One individual has also been charged with grievous bodily harm with intent.
Before it was proscribed, Palestine Action ran a campaign targeting the company’s UK sites and connected firms, which escalated significantly after Israel’s assault on Gaza in response to the 7 October 2023 attacks by Hamas. Elbit System UK’s latest accounts show that it made an operating loss of £4.7m last year, compared with a profit of £3.8m in 2023.

Andrew Feinstein, an expert and author on the global arms trade and former member of the South African national assembly, described the closure as “extremely significant”, adding: “We need to remind ourselves that Elbit (Systems) is one of the two most important Israeli arms films, along with IAI, that is it is obviously a key component of Israel’s military industrial complex.”
Last year, Elbit Sytems UK sold its West Midlands-based subsidiary Elite KL (now Calatherm). After Elite KL’s operating profit fell by 75% in 2022, it said that it was primarily a result of increased security costs, its Tamworth site having been targeted by Palestine Action. The new owners said they would not have any association with Elbit and cancel its defence contracts.
In 2022, Eblit sold Ferranti P&C, part of its Oldham-based business, after 18 months of protests by Palestine Action as well as Oldham Peace.
Last month, Private Eye revealed that Elbit Systems UK was part of a consortium close to winning a £2bn contract that would make it a “strategic partner” of the Ministry of Defence. The FT reported that the former Labour cabinet minister, Peter Hain had written to the defence secretary, Jon Healey, urging him not to hand the contract to the company, given “the devastation unfolding in Gaza”.
Palestine Action has been granted permission for a judicial review in November of the decision to proscribe. However, at a court of appeal hearing on 25 September, the home secretary will try to overtturn the permission decision.

And Labour's private infighting slip ever closer into the public eye

https://archive.ph/0Bdh6

Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham says he is concerned about the "balance" of the cabinet after a reshuffle sparked by Angela Rayner's resignation for under paying stamp duty.
She left her roles as housing secretary and deputy prime minister, as well as deputy leader of the Labour Party, the latter of which has triggered a contest to find her replacement.
Burnham told Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg that process would be an opportunity to have a "discussion about the internal management" of the party and that somebody from the north of England would be "great".
Defence Secretary John Healey said there was a "good new team in place" and called on them to "go up a gear".

Rayner's exit has sparked a major reshuffle with David Lammy replacing her as deputy prime minister, Yvette Cooper moving to foreign secretary and Shabana Mahmood following her as home secretary.
Among those to lose their job was Leader of the House Lucy Powell.
Asked if he was worried about whether the new-look cabinet included the right balance of people, Burnham said: "I am concerned about the balance, and I think you know, we need to use the deputy leadership contest to discuss some of these things."
He said the leadership needed to the party more, pointing to internal rows over winter fuel payments and disability benefits, adding that MPs opposed to the government's plans should not be "punished".
He continued: "I see good people, good MPs, losing the whip, people like Rachael Maskell. That doesn't seem fair to me. It didn't happen in the governments I was in, in Gordon Brown's government or Tony Blair's government.
"You know, we need a different style here, so that everyone is included and we pull together."

His words come ahead of a deputy leadership contest which some have predicted could highlight divisions between Downing Street and the left of the party. The deputy leadership is separate to the deputy prime minister role, although Rayner held both simultaneously.
Asked who should take the job, Burnham suggested Louise Haigh or Lucy Powell, both of whom are MPs in northern England, in order to "counter that London centricity".

Healey told the BBC the reshuffle was Sir Keir Starmer resetting his team and "saying to each and every one of us you've got to go up a gear, you've got to deliver".
He added their job was "to demonstrate to people that we can as government change their lives, make them feel better off and make them feel more secure".
Healey said Rayner had been an "inspiration to many" and particularly to working-class women, adding the government would "miss" her, adding: "Any government is stronger with Angela Rayner but we've got a good new team in place and that's our job."
But he defended Sir Keir's "clear, swift action" and said she was "not victim".
Labour MP Emily Thornberry said she was considering running for deputy leader but said it was "a question of what can I bring to it".
"I mean I hear what is said about the deputy leader should come from Manchester, and obviously the mayor of Manchester would say that.
"I'm sure that people would say they should come from Wales or Scotland.
"What's important is what you bring... do you have the strength, do you have the experience, can you actually make a difference?"
Labour's governing body is due to meet on Monday to discuss details of the deputy leadership election, according to LabourList.

https://archive.ph/0tqAb

Keir Starmer is facing fresh pressure from Labour insiders, days after a sweeping government reshuffle, as party figures from the left and centre mobilise through a network, backed by Andy Burnham, designed to change Labour’s direction.
The network, called Mainstream, will inevitably influence Labour’s looming deputy leadership contest, with Burnham already throwing his weight behind former cabinet minister Louise Haigh as well as Lucy Powell, the former Commons leader.

Mainstream has been steered by Compass a centre-left thinktank, and Open Labour and is backed by Burnham, the Greater Manchester mayor who when asked did not rule out the possibility of running in a future leadership contest with the network’s support.
But supporters include figures right across the party from Labour’s left to the centre, including Labour peers Alf Dubs and Anna Healy, Labour MPs Clive Lewis, Dawn Butler, Alex Sobel, Clive Efford, chair of the Tribune group of MPs, the former Blairite minister John Denham, and the founder of Momentum, Jon Lansman.

Burnham told the Guardian: “Mainstream speaks to the change that’s needed, a more inclusive, less factional way of running the party. That is right anyway, but it’s really right for the times we’re in now.
“We’ve got to get beyond this culture where everything’s a threat. If people are speaking out, it can actually be an opportunity to make changes.
“Labour’s always been factional but it’s become more so in recent times than I can remember in almost 40 years in the party. You don’t win through a factional approach. You win through a broader approach.”
Its founders say it is designed to be the “home for Labour’s radical realists”, promising to provide a space for members to discuss vision, policy and electoral strategy. They also aim to campaign in constituency Labour parties (CLPs) and across the country for what they describe as bold but practical reforms.
At the same time its Labour members are preparing to put a child poverty motion on the conference floor calling on the prime minister to scrap the two-child benefit limit, a policy blamed for pushing hundreds of thousands of children into poverty.
The conference motion, backed by Momentum, Open Labour and Compass, floats raising £6bn through levies on banks and the online gambling industry to pay for its abolition, an idea that has been supported by the former Labour prime minister Gordon Brown.
Compass’s decision to re-engage within Labour follows polling that has showed broad support for members who back wealth taxes, democratic reform and stronger action against child poverty.

Mainstream’s supporters believe the Labour government is struggling to communicate the coherent vision, policy and strategy needed to change the country. They acknowledge the huge electoral threat from the populist right in Reform UK and believe Starmer and his top team “seem lost and unprepared to develop and champion a popular left alternative”.
The network vows to become openly campaigning, unlike other networks such as the Labour-aligned Fabian thinktank, seeking to get the support of members who feel the government has been too cautious.
With Angela Rayner forced to resign after being found in breach of the ministerial code, Labour faces a deputy leadership contest. Burnham said it should not be “a running commentary on the government” but a debate about “the running of the party”.

He suggested Haigh and Powell as figures who “represent the centre of gravity” of Labour: “I think it’s really important that people from all parts of the party are involved, but particularly those who are the heart of it all.”
Burnham has long been viewed as a possible successor to Starmer. Asked if Mainstream could become a vehicle for him to return to Westminster, he replied: “It’s about culture rather than people … it’s bigger than any one personality.”
Pressed again, he said: “I’m really happy where I am. I think what we’ve done through devolution is connect people with politics in a different way. This is intended to help the government … it’s tough being in government and Mainstream is here to help them.”
Organisers say its not a faction or a caucus, but a broad church of the party’s progressive left, stretching from the soft left through to non-aligned activists who would class themselves as centrists.
Labour figures say it would not be surprising for an organisation set up in this way to seek to propose its own candidate for the party’s upcoming deputy leadership contest, and even shape the ground for a future leadership contest.
While Starmer’s reshuffle indicated his plans to tighten his grip on his ministerial team with a focus on tackling immigration and taking on the fight to Reform UK, his party management will be tested at conference.
Mainstream organisers believe supporters are looking for a bolder offer from the government, to also avoid being outflanked by the Greens led by their new eco-populist leader Zack Polanski or the Corbyn-Sultana alliance.
Neal Lawson, chair of Compass, said: “At this moment of peril for the party, Mainstream launches as a historic alliance in Labour. Never before have the centre, soft left and hard left come together to save its heart and soul.”

For Americans reading Burnham is our Gavin Newsom.

Just a boring name · Sep 7, 2025

I've been fat for 17 years and I hate it.

When I was younger I had anorexia, I went down to a very small weight and was hospitalised.
A couple of decades ago I became disabled (one of those real disabilities, not a self-diagnosed one) and although I ate healthily, because I was unable to exercise to the extent I used to, the weight started to climb. Having children seemed to add to the weight.

I'm now a personal trainer, I'm still disabled, and I'm still fat.
I don't eat shite, or drink alcohol.
I take part in 6 fitness Classes per day, 6 days a week as an instructor.

I was offered the option of the injections but after taking part in 12 weeks of having to show them food and exercise diaries, was then turned down for the jabs because I don't overeat and because I have a history of anorexia.

I have been offered a path to weight loss surgery but at my age the recovery period would mean I'd probably never be able to return to work in the same capacity.

I don't want jabs, I don't want surgery, I want to know what is going on with my body to make it behave like this, but the NHS don't seem to be interested in finding out what is causing my body to be so overweight, causing it to hold on to the weight and be resistant to losing weight and keeping it off, so that I can fix it and not be like this again.

It's frustrating to be doing the exact same things you recommend your Health & Fitness clients to be doing, but it works for them and not for you.

People must look at me and think I'm a lazy, greedy waste of space, but I've helped hundreds of people to lose weight, keep it off and lead healthier lifestyles.

Anyway.
Back on thread.

Vegan sausage rolls,
Flags,
Migrants,
Useless Politicians,

Looks like the Kiwifarms is the only place that isn't going down the shitter.

Yer all good lads.

Clearly not since you're still gaining weight. You can't burn more calories than you consume and stay fat.

You physically cannot intake less calories than you use up and still stay fat. You're either not counting calories properly, or you're a phenomena of physics that could solve the energy problems of the world, and potentially be our key to faster than light travel.

Unironically have you tried steroids? A friend of mine started university as a chubby chubby fat man, and ended university as a freak of nature. His head looked like a Tamagotchi superglued on top of a fridge freezer made of beef. Gave him horrific back acne though, poor fucker.

It's frustrating to be doing the exact same things you recommend your Health & Fitness clients to be doing, but it works for them and not for you.

People must look at me and think I'm a lazy, greedy waste of space, but I've helped hundreds of people to lose weight, keep it off and lead healthier lifestyles.

Anyway.
Back on thread.

Vegan sausage rolls,
Flags,
Migrants,
Useless Politicians,

Looks like the Kiwifarms is the only place that isn't going down the shitter.

Yer all good lads.

Can you swim? When I was fat enough that it hurt to walk I started with swimming. Is there anything to do with the Paralympics in your area you could join in with?

Don't give up, keep trying different things.

Kids should leave school able to whip up a weeks worth of basic nutritious food. Nothing fancy or expensive, how to make a soup, a stew, a salad, bake bread, and a couple of meat and three veg and a carb kind of dishes

While I agree, this really should be learned at home. Cooking is a great way to bond with people (unless you're autistic like me and hate people touching your utensils), and you get a lot more from a few nights a week of one-on-one instruction, than in a classroom once a week.
It also can be important for family heritage; my sister has handwritten recipes from our great-gran that were handed down through my mother.

Shabana Mahmood, a devout muslim given the Home Secretary job?

Are they taking the piss?

The Bri'ish guv'mant looks like s'pissin' non-stop, dunnit?

IDK if late or or not, but apparently the two things she pledged during her inauguration were the Allah and the Qu'ran - not the King and country, because Starmer believes the British Constitution is too intolerant and overly nationalistic, - and thus he personally gave her the perms.

For extra lulz, there's the first paragraph of this Sun article which reads, and I quote

The department she will now head up will be making dynamic shifts to counter the public mood on immigration and grooming gangs.

What an odd way to phrase that. "Counter the mood," huh? She gonna step up and convince everyone that Mohammed himself invented groyping, therefore, by Qu'ran, groyping is absolutely okay?

Probably the closest they have been to literally saying "we're working on the psyops" without actually saying it.

Nah, the closest one was Keir himself saying that there was a very intentional flooding of migrants the last several years, and that the psyop has been real all along.

The catch is that he didn't say he was gonna hextuple down on it.

Will try going forwards but I copied the articles in full. Aside from knowing the source should not make much difference.

No pictures in the copy and paste. And it's nice to have a proper link to send people.

That's exactly what it says.

For Americans reading Burnham is our Gavin Newsom.

Manchester being the only city to keep accurate ethnic data of child rapists as well as being singled out for having no signs of a coverup has always stuck with me. It's probably the one good thing he's got going for him.

Shame he can't do out about that homo-phenotype he's got going on.

Territory that comes with having a bent ideology I suppose...
