Spoken Wisdom, Padhānasutta:" ExertionKinsman of the heedless,
Evil One,
come here for whatever purpose:
I haven’t, for merit,
even the least bit of need.
Those who have need of merit:
Those are the ones
Māra’s fit to address.
In me are
conviction
austerity,
persistence,
discernment.
Why, when my mind is resolute,
do you petition me to live?
This wind could burn up …
"Brian Leishman, Neil Duncan-Jordan, Rachael Maskell and Chris Hinchcliffe will now sit as independent MPs."
“I firmly believe that it is not my duty as an MP to make people poorer, especially those that have suffered because of austerity and its dire consequences.”
- Brian Leishman, MP for Alloa and Grangemouth, one of many who voted against the government’s disability benefit cuts.
Respect to the rebels, for voting with their consciences even when it got them into trouble!
I wonder if any of them will join up with Corbyn & Sultana's new thing?

1984 on steroids.
"Needless to say, putting American data in the hands of a company whose CEO boasts about his company’s capacity to kill and intimidate doesn’t inspire confidence that the data will be handled responsibly."

Liberals (in basically any western country) think that the political victory of the right is due to messaging: "We just need to get the messaging right".
No. Your politics are shit because you are adopting the narratives of the right (austerity, racism) and provide no meaningful alternatives.
"A new government of austerity and war, in a deteriorating international situation, after 17 years of economic slump and stagnation, unable to confront crises from genocide to climate change to housing shortages and preparing the way for far-right rule, would warrant sustained opposition from the left under any circumstances."

Good wishes and all power to the Labour rebels today. They won't vote to push 150,000 disabled people into poverty.

Remember the people who said AI wouldn’t take away jobs? The current LLM/AI space is absolute shit at actually doing real work… but they are cutting and taking jobs anyway.
Oh, and we went from a Liberal Canadian government that at least had a Universal Basic Income on their radar… to one that is going to cut 1000s of federal jobs and, you guessed it, get AI to do stuff instead.
Liberal Government acting like Conservative government 😢
