UK Politics@feddit.uk•Greens’ Zack Polanski admits failing to pay correct council tax on houseboatEnglish
1·6 days agoYeah, the fact it’s bullshit and impossible was kind of my point. But that doesn’t change the fact that he’ll be held to a higher standard by the media than any of the other leaders.
Maybe you have more faith in people’s media literacy than I do. 😃

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Greens’ Zack Polanski admits failing to pay correct council tax on houseboatEnglish
21·6 days agoYes he’s human, and everyone makes mistakes, etc, but he needs to realise he simply cannot make mistakes any more. He has to be superhuman.
Otherwise we’ll continue getting a headline per week about the latest stupid thing he’s done – and then because he’s basically a decent person, he hands them a free “Polanski: ‘It was wrong of me to…’” headline every week as well. 🙄

…Right?

2·24 days agoThe Iran bit also required a bit too much doublethink.
It is fairly effective, though. I was thinking the other day, one of the other parties should start putting every horrible thing Reform says on billboards or something.
(Speaking of which, I bet those pesky TV stations didn’t think the comments were too offensive to air when they were coming out of a Reformtwat.)

I’ve been working on 100%ing Pokémon Legends: Z-A (and the DLC). I put in a couple hundred hours and probably got to 95%+, and then felt my brain flick the “you are no longer interested in this” switch. 😬

UK Politics@feddit.uk•The hard right has high hopes in Gorton and Denton – but a grassroots fightback is under wayEnglish
3·3 months agoI just checked their style guide (it’s an Autistic fascination of mine 😅)… funnily enough, they specifically recommend using “far-right” over “alt-right”. But they don’t have an entry for “far-right”, and I couldn’t find any mention of “hard right”.
“alt-right”
use once and in quotes at first mention; use far right at any subsequent mentions. Note: far right (noun) and far-right (adjective). More specific descriptions can be used where relevant when mentioning individuals associated with the movement, but such descriptions should be evidence-based.



And then most style guides (and human beings) will just change it back. Like they already do with “Game Freak” and others. 🤷♂️
