This is why Liberalism is dying. Most people who are pretty liberal still have a few red lines and when liberalism pushes against them they are happy to side with illiberal people to maintain them.

Or even side with sexual predators and rapists because bashing trans people means so much to them

People love it. I’ve got people on Facebook etc who have fallen for the Farage schtick and are going on and on about Trump’s ‘victories for common sense’..,

Yeah, it's what people voted for, drain the swamp, disrupt stuff....risk for Trump is if this disruption starts to affect these voters directly or indirectly...but then again he'll just blame someone else.

USA and Europe are increasingly quickly shifting to the right, even alternative types I know of who have always been left. Social media has done an incredible job of turning people’s heads and switching off their brains. I really wouldn’t be surprised if the USA became a dictatorship with the support of the majority

    • How much is Burnham's success down to Manchester getting a shitton of investment for public transport infrastructure?   There's no doubt he did the work, but the money dumped into Manchester for him to achieve that was huge - the most of any infrastructure project outside London ever. Did that need a mayor, or just the money?
    • Sounds good tbh. 
    • Bristol was the only city in 2012 that voted for a mayor. We had a local independent who was popular, then Marvin Rees won and was so corrupt that Bristol voted to get rid of the position - having just had the WECA mayor position put in place as well.
    • They built a watering system and have been watering the island for the past few weeks to reduce dust, but given the current drought, there will still be dust. They will cover twice as much ground around the main stage with those plastic panels as they did before. They couldn't book Gogol Bordello because the singer was afraid the government would allow Russian security services to capture him if he entered the country. They didn't have much room to be selective about artists. They booked whoever they could get. This year's Sziget will be only about 50% of his original vision. He wanted a dedicated rock stage. They are preparing for a loss of 1.5 billion HUF this year. For some reason, student tickets are not selling in the numbers they had expected. He said that when he talks about the lineup being less important, he doesn't mean Sziget should have a weaker lineup than Primavera. Rather, it should have a similarly strong lineup combined with much more non-musical programming, so people from abroad come here to see the same artists but have a completely different overall experience. He didn't miss Sziget and originally wanted to spend no more than two days a week dealing with it, but now he's working on it full-time and has handed over control of the rest of his businesses.  
    • Well the point seems to be 22.7% turn out doesn't suggest the majority are rushing out to support the mayoral system.
