That's beside the point and what happened in the 2019 election is not what happened in all the elections since 1926.

It's the concept of the ancient Greek philosophers.
Our system is an erroneous application, due to our own misuse.

the Ancient Greeks also had slaves, they liked to fuck boys in the ass, and the women ofttimes were basically chattel, so pardon me if I do not want to go back to 500 BC Sparta or Thebes.

also, the UK is one of the few major nations where you have a gender gap were women support the cons more than the progs.

Look the gender gaps in the US for instance, a STAGGERING gender gap

men overwhelmingly vote Rethug

women vote for the Dems

The modern ones also have boys in the **ss - that's neither here not there.
They also sell watches in the streets and public squares and do other things like that. So ?

In the event we differ about the preferences of women, but history says Maggie Thatcher's great triumphs were due to female vote.
I 'm sure they are Tory-ades and those ancient anti-suffragette types just did n't know a good thing when they saw one.
But that is again the subject of a different scientific investigation.

The fact remains that our system of voting is a departure from the ideal true democracy of Plato and the ideal true democracy of Plato is the true democracy.

Florida Republicans advance bill banning discussion of LGBTQ people in school under guise of ‘parental rights’

https://www.rawstory.com/florida-2656458991/

Under the guise of “parental rights” and “student welfare” a Florida House committee has advanced legislation that would ban primary school discussion of LGBTQ people or topics, could require school officials to notify a parent if a student comes out as LGBTQ, bans schools from withholding that information from parents in many cases, and allows parents to sue if schools violate those policies.

Florida House Bill 1557, “Parental Rights in Education,” was advanced out of the Education and Employment Committee, The Tampa Bay Times reports. Its author, Rep. Joe Harding, the founder of a local lawn care company, was described by a local paper when he won his 2020 race as as “a supporter of anti-abortion legislation and the Second Amendment.”

The bill in part reads: “A school district may not encourage classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in primary grade levels or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students.”

Jon Harris Maurer, Equality Florida’s Public Policy Director, spoke out against the legislation Thursday:

The bill must pass through one additional committee before being voted on by the full House.

U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist (D-FL), who is running for governor, weighed in:

Russian invasion of Ukraine imminent ? World War Three anyone ?

Dominic Cummings has said it is his “duty to get rid” of Boris Johnson as prime minister, describing it as “sort of like fixing the drains”.

The prime minister’s former chief adviser called his former boss a “complete fuckwit” whose only preoccupations were “Big Ben’s bongs” and “looking at maps” to “order the building of things” in his honour.

CFC and the Ukrainian crisis

The UK government (Boris Johnson) is threatenig the USSP with sanctions.
These sanctions will affect all sorts of Russian economic concerns they say.
So what will happen with CFC ? Are they going to relegate us ?

Seeing the brexiteers becoming so involved with international affairs is a joke really:
 

but anyway.
It's ludicrous. Why does n't Russia join NATO and get over with it.
The whole affair smacks they don't like to have nobody to go after if they are both in NATO and nothing else.

Yet is CFC supposed to be a Russia related economic concern ?
