Looks like is time to move to Europe then, I mean the whole call and write to your senators and representatives only works if they care about their people instead of corporate contributions, the whole vote for someone who cares only works if you have an alternative.
Maybe I’m missing your point, but which senators in particular are relevant to the UK?
I think the commenter meant the saying we have in the US which is call and write your representatives/senators. They were indicating doing whatever the UK version of that appears to be falling on deaf ears as the article states the politicians do not appear to be taking the advise of educated advisors so they are also likely going to ignore the public.
75% of the current Tory MPs are about to lose their seats in the next election so they don’t give a fuck. The strategy they seem to be adopting to save their jobs is to swing further to the authoritarian right to try and convince boomers to vote for them.
They won’t win by taking the sensible approach to policies like this, so that only leaves incentives to do as much harm as they can in the next year or so in hopes of getting the fascist votes out.
yeah this is what I’m thinking. The fact that US corps want to pull out of the UK just makes me respect the UK more… not that they don’t have their own problems, EU countries seem to be doing better in general
The issue here is that the UK isn’t doing something good in this one circumstance. You can’t create a man in the middle encryption scheme and hope your the only man in the middle. It fundamentally breaks the baseline security and privacy of the solution.
yeah that shits crazy (tories are crazy) which is why I would never choose the UK if I were to move somewhere european
