I’m still a bit in shock Corbyn admitted lower earners are also going to be taxed more



I’m not sure who will vote for them - the NHS (plus welfare a bit) is their last hope and they’re throwing everything at that.



Doesn’t help Labour itself started the first wave of privatisation of the NHS - I know that wasn’t Corbyn’s Labour (that was New Labour) but not great.

Labour already runs the NHS in Wales and no one has a good word for how they’re managing that - in terms of age demographic it’s almost certainly under funded to some degree, but still, doesn’t bode well.

Holy shit, been looking up past figures for my constituency and get a load of that 2010 to 2015 shift

"I’m not sure who will vote for them - the NHS (plus welfare a bit) is their last hope and they’re throwing everything at that."

Almost all my early-mid 20s friends are staunchly Labour regardless of how many times they drop the ball; it's commitment to anti-austerity more than commitment to the party I think

"Doesn’t help Labour itself started the first wave of privatisation of the NHS - I know that wasn’t Corbyn’s Labour (that was New Labour) but not great."

I hear this, but Labour have always been excellent at sweeping this under the carpet. The bigger problem is that their line on the NHS doesn't concede to the nuance of the role privatisation can selectively play in it

Scots want independence and remain in EU
English want to leave EU but keep the UK together.
Northern Irish want unity in the community.
Welsh want to leave but will be worse off out the lot.

Absolute nightmare.

That's the shape of it :/ you're missing the republic of London though

I would happily wall off London but get Doof and his missus out first.

There must be an area of London you like?



I’d find it hard not living near a large city in the UK and I don’t like Manchester (the one I know second best)



Birmingham?

Does it have to be a 'large' city?

Thinking so.



Done my time in the sticks, been a country boy, Milton Keynes of the weekend won’t cut it

I have been to MK multiple times but still think of it as an imaginary place

South West London is alright in parts, few bits of here and there and the touristy parts are superb but that’s about it. London is an almighty shit hole where everyone wants to be a name but nobody knows yours.

If you're willing to go past the largest, there's just so much more to choose from...
I'm not talking small here, they're still cities after all. York, Brighton, Lincoln and Chester are all nice (as examples).

Edit: MK does look like an AI program constructed it, so that isn't far from the truth... maybe it only exists in our minds?

York is first rate.
I like Leeds as well tbh.

Leeds is my 'home' city, was trying not to appear too biased.

York is alright but I was done in five hours



Like living in Bruge or something like that, no fucking way, death by cake shop - how many times can you take a ghost tour?



Leeds is more like it though my mate works there and says I haven’t experienced the dark side yet. I liked Leeds.



Brighton is good in a lot of ways, immense for pubs and non chain restaurants...but been so much as sort of day trips and dated a girl there for a long time...it’s got baggage.

@zak: nah I live on the outskirts of Leeds (only a few miles away), I work in the centre. I appreciate the fact it's big enough to feel like you're living in civilisation with access to amenities, but small enough that all that great countryside is on your doorstep, some of the scenery around these parts is top notch. Excellent for walkers etc.
