Having studied politics at both A Level and as part of my degree, the comments above don't suprise me in the least. It did seem to me that the girls in particular knew bugger all about the subject and had hardly any interest in it. Given this is the small subset of the female population who had actually chosen to study the thing at a reasonably high level, it may give some indication to certain handwringers as to why there are so few female posters here and that it has fuck all to do with some of us saying 'fuck all' too much..
There are actually over 1000 girls on the forum, many of them extremely fit, but they all mostly stick to the IFP room.

I wasn't referring to the Ladyboys. I always found that element in my classes to be extremely politically astute and eloquent.

In that case I am in total agreement with you, am I not?? 100%. Pick an age and let that be the age for everything… people reach that age and then just get on with life. Preferably 18. But whenever. Let society pick an age and then go with it.
Yes! Claim the State Pension from the age of 18!
Glad to learn that you are supportive of UBI.

Well, yes. I've long been in favour of UBI - probably more so than most forum members - and have a history of posts to that effect.

Monster Raving Loony Party Policy was once to raise the school leaving age to 46 and cut the pension age to 47 to cut unemployment
Unlike the current shower of fucktards they were being ironic
NB. Spellcheck does not correct fucktards

Ooh, I'm 46.
Good to see the colloquial use of 'fucktards' finally taking off here too.

Having seen some of the 2021 results posted up, one reason why it is a shame the voting system has been changed this time is that it will obscure the scale of the swing against the Tories since then - which could be pretty humungous in a few instances.

The words "it is a shame" should be omitted and that would be even closer to the truth.
