Why does it seem like every government in the world is clamoring to be Germany in the 30's right now. It's pretty long overdue that some of these pieces of shit are overthrown, maybe even some public executions since they all like it so old school
Is it just me or politicians around the world are increasingly expressing a desire to build future police states? >

They're scared to death because they know what is coming, climate change, pandemics and the Cost of Living crisis could come to a boil sooner than they think . >

Exactly we're nearing a tipping point and they know their heads are on the chopping block but instead of siding with the future and the changes that needs doing, they keep accepting blood money bribes and think they can stamp out resistance before they can get to them >

And this is why we don't abolish the House of Lords. UK would be even more fucking mental without it. >

We shouldn't be relying on an unrepresentative life time sitting unelected peers to uphold basic rights >

But we do, so we shouldn't get rid of it >

Or we could join the rest of the civilised democratic world and finally get around to making a written constitution. One that includes protective laws for protesting. 
But we won’t, because then we’d have to admit that our entire governing system is flawed and archaic. >

I don't think that's necessary really. A simpler solution would be some form of PR so that these things don't make it past the Commons let alone the Lords. Constitutions are very messy, and we've survived without one for a long time. Also, considering Canada, New Zealand and Sweden's constitutions are also uncodified I don't think we're in the worst company. >

This would've easily passed in the US >

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 87%. (I'm a bot)


Government plans to crack down on protests have faced a major setback after key aspects of the legislation were overturned in the House of Lords.
The proposals were put forward as amendments to the Public Order Bill - an already controversial piece of legislation aimed at clamping down on protest methods used regularly by groups such as Just Stop Oil, Insulate Britain and Extinction Rebellion.
The Public Order Bill is considered a successor to the controversial Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act passed last year, which was criticised for introducing curbs on the right to protest.
