The UK has announced large-scale policing reforms, including new investments into artificial intelligence and increased Live Facial Recognition (LFR) deployments.

The Home Office has pledged to fund 40 new LFR vans as part of a national program to expand facial recognition capabilities in town centres across England and Wales, according to a white paper published on Monday.

    Tell that to Andy Burnham.

    We’re not a purely two party state, like America, that requires changing the Democrats from within.

    Labour is a captured organisation. The PLP is filled with authoritarians and Friends of Israel. And the PLP has the majority of power within the party. The effort required to change it from within would be better spent in the already established Green party and establishing Your Party.

    The left can abandon Labour, as it abandoned the left in the 90s.

      The UK Green Party of England and Wales? Currently they have 4 commons and 2 lords. They at least had the sensibility to ask Jill Stein to stand down, but they also endorse leaving NATO which is really fucking stupid.

      Your Party 2025 is just a joke honestly, I’m surprised they got more seats than Lord Buckethead.
