The fact there isn't national outrage over this is testament to the political ignorance and lack of intelligence of the modern Brit.
If the government came out tomorrow and ordered every house to be fitted with telescreens, I genuinely think they'd get away with it.

I have a suspicion that the majority of overly obsessive anti-AI accounts are born from the same blueprint as Just Stop Oil protestors:
the accounts are funded by AI companies to be as unbearable as possible in order to poison the well surrounding genuine AI criticism.

Expect Winds & Waves to be £75/$80 a piece, with £40/$45 DLCs.
Anyone purchasing both copies with DLCs will likely be looking at over £200/$250 all in.
Although if they had any decency, they'd maintain the prices from SV as an apology for how awful they were.
Nintendo just told investors how much it's betting on Pokémon Winds & Waves 🌬️🌊
At its Nov 5 earnings Q&A, Furukawa called Gen 10 crucial as Switch 2 enters its third year and said Nintendo will do its utmost to maximize sales. Here's what's really behind it 👇
📉 Switch 2 sold 2.67M units from July to September, down 41% after the price hikes. Nintendo still needs ~10M more by March to hit its 16.5M target.
🗓️ Winds & Waves won't save this fiscal year. It ends March 31, and the games are only dated "2027." Pokémon is the plan for what comes next.
🔎 "Third year" could be a hint. Switch 2's third year starts in June 2027, which points more to a mid-to-late 2027 launch. Not confirmed, just a read between the lines.
🤐 Nintendo doesn't own Pokémon. It holds about a third of The Pokémon Company, so Furukawa can't share numbers. But a Pokémon hit pays Nintendo three ways: hardware, software and its share of TPC's profits.
📊 Pokopia sits at 4.04M on Nintendo's charts, but TPC says it's past 5M. The gap likely comes from Japan, where TPC handles Pokémon sales.
🚀 Pokémon is already at its peak: a record ~$3.4B year for TPC and 500M+ games sold, all before Gen 10.
🔒 Switch 2 exclusive. No Switch 1 version, so this is the big push for families to upgrade.
❓ Still unknown: release date, price and any console bundle.
Will Winds & Waves be your reason to get a Switch 2? 👇

Being right-wing means seeing one's loved ones and one's country as part of oneself, then seeing the world as neutral territory to be judged on an individual basis.
Being left-wing means seeing the world as all good and one's country and loved ones as either ally or foe.

The best litmus test as to the true nature of a government is to observe how each side of the political divide act during confrontation.
Whichever side is quickest to resort to violence is almost always the side to which the sitting establishment leans, regardless of label.
Calmest guy at the polling place today in NH was the 18-year old that got swung at. We want conversation, not violence!

Bit like spontaneously standing up and announcing to the rest of the pub that you're not a nonce. I didn't think you were, but now I'm convinced you are.
If you go to bed on election night and don't know who won a midterm congressional race, that's normal. And if you wake up the next morning and find that a candidate who was behind hours earlier has since pulled ahead, that's normal, too. (via @PolitiFact) to.pbs.org/4zqnWBa

He says while harbouring champion of the Online Safety Act, Nadine Dorries, in his party.
But remember, it's all Restore Britain and Rupert Lowe's fault that Reform bottled a 13% lead and are now running 3rd.
Ghastly, draconian madness.
The Tories teed it up.

The Online Safety Act was introduced to parliament by Nadine Dorries, who defeted to Reform UK in September 2025. At the time, Farage said she "will be a great boost to our campaign to win the next general election."

My feed over the last 6 months has been plagued with Ukrainian drones killing surrendering Russian soldiers, the most basic and obvious of war crimes, yet I've not seen a single article mention it.
Funny how that works.

How convenient. 1000 days from today is 16th July 2029 and the next general election must occur no later than 15th August 2029.
