How is something that doesn't work an achievement?

[-] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 1 points 11 months ago

I don't want to play sematic games with you because I really don't give a shit and am not looking for an argument but...

Achievement: he finished the marathon.

Unsuccessful: he finished the marathon slower than his time last year.

Both can be true at the same time and it comes down to your interpretation of being a success which, I think we can agree for yourself, is never going to be favourable to Sunak / this government / any Tory. And that's cool: each to their own. But for others it might be true.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
