Unjust laws are made to be broken. Just laws are made to be strictly enforced. And laws against peaceful immigration and work are archetypal unjust laws.

Get the girl in the attic.

The looted corpse of the OpenAI nonprofit has started pretending to give! Bear in mind, that nonprofit was originally supposed to disburse the profits of AI to humanity as a whole, not larp standard awful pretend philanthropy.

There are reasonable arguments for reducing the reliance on jury trial, but to go about and toss 800 years of Magna Carta like it's just another Tuesday is nuts. Without a written constitution or a proper separation of powers, the best guarantee of stability the UK government
