Fair point so they should be implemented together.
I struggle to think of a better illustration of the cynical nature of our politics than this situation. Labour want to lower the voting age because they see electoral advantage. The Tories don't want to because they see disadvantage. Both will...
For me it is very simple. There is no point in giving more people the vote unless every vote, by those that can currently vote, counts. Bring in PR and then by all means lower the voting age because the 16-18 year olds’ vote will count too.
Please base your assertion on knowledge and facts rather than your bias. What you are saying is simply not true. If we are to ever address climate change we have to abandon personal bias or preference in favour of what actually makes a difference and is true
You are correct of course but this implies they are lying (which they undoubtedly are in this instance) which therefore means labour is starting where the Tories have left off. I really think most people would vote labour despite promising to raise taxes (or even because of). God politics is...
Just for interest, what do you think the full fat % of cows milk is? The answer is just 3.6% which officially makes it a low fat food. There is currently a very significant shift in consumer behaviour to full fat milk (as opposed to skimmed/semi skimmed) because apparently sound research has...
Sorry but you statements re almond milk are incorrect.
Almonds can only be grown in dry, hot climates. Farming almonds requires large amounts of irrigation at a time when these areas are getting dryer due to climate change and the competition for water is increasing. ONE almond requires 6.44...
Female dairy calves are kept to one day become adult cows in the herd and all other calves go to other local farms to be reared for beef.
Yes, cows need to give birth to produce milk as they are mammals.
This deserves a balanced response.
First, if you are against livestock farming per se (ie no meat, no dairy etc) then your point about cows existing to produce milk and having calves to produce milk is not only true but for you a valid reason not to drink milk. But otherwise one accepts that we...
Our local organic dairy farm has started selling their milk through a vending machine in glass bottles. It’s not homogenised and tastes amazing. They clearly look after their cows well and the way they nurture the flora and fauna on their farm is very visible. They are also very active in...
Thankfully true. Quite what the new S of S can do to produce the enormous change that is needed is currently beyond me though. The level of investment required is so huge now I don’t see how the taxpayer can afford it if nationalised (so many other priorities needing £billions) and keeping it in...
This is farcical. The water companies (all? I’m not sure) are poisoning our rivers and seas because of their failure to meet their legal responsibilities. How is saying they will not be penalised if they continue to do so make them more responsible? Madness.
Organic dairy farm near us has started selling their milk through a vending machine with glass bottles. Tastes amazing and this farm does fab stuff for the environment and for our community. Cows look pretty happy out in the fields too!
I have missed the point completely!😂🤦 Read the question too fast and trying to multi task at the same time.
I’m anti capital punishment and anti Tory so my answer is ‘Vote not tory as planned’.
Apologies, manapause! 😂
