I know

To be clear, the NHS is just one example of everything that I see is broken in the UK, I’m not singling it out for any particular reason.

But to answer your question, lack of resources and funding (staff, equipment, money etc.) has led to basically staff shortages and what is widely considered to be inadequate healthcare. I’m not saying literally nobody gets good quality care, but a lot of people don’t and it’s not really acceptable, especially considering that some major surgery waiting lists can reach up to a year or more (in other words: if they need surgery then they will have to wait for it for a year or longer).

I’m not political. I say what I see. And what I see is crime rates sky high, year long nhs waiting times, etc. I don’t look at it from a political perspective — if I did, I’d be scathing both left and right corrupt fuckers in parliament. They’re all the same any way you slice it.

Every way imaginable

Have you tried old sites that actually scan/preserve old newspapers? The moguls cannot scrub them words away as easily.

None. They’ve already got names, and in any case, I don’t think anyone would let me name any of them (which is a shame, because I’d name Mexico as New Tenochtitlan, spelling accurate of course)

What kind of a business are these people running??? I cannot comprehend?!^}|=]

He asks on a platform where you can do just that…

Lol

After having done more research on the episode (despite not having been able to find the episode itself) I believe that this could be it and I may have just simply misremembered minor details about what my young brain was seeing on the screen. Thank you

Now how did I know, before I even clicked this post open, that I’d find this answer here on Lemmy?

Why not start your own? Crap will go into anyone’s feed anyway, hardly matters what community it originates from.

You have absolutely nothing going for you, no future, and don’t expect a spouse any time soon, you poor fucker

It’s not breaking but it’s certainly broken

That is an excellent suggestion, many thanks. I need to look into this more though, as I seem to remember the cage being used as a form of punishment rather than as a statement.

Thanks. It’s a good idea, although I can only remember a few very specific clips of 1 episode of whatever it was, and I’m not sure if I could figure it out on that basis just from the series title. But ill give the list a look anyway, thanks for the suggestions

Idk, I literally remember that clip and nothing else. It wasn’t something I was watching per se. Just something playing in the background that I happened to see those clips, so I don’t know whether it was a comedy, drama, etc. I’ll check out the headmaster one. Also it was a female teacher who requested the cage, and a male caretaker if that narrows it down.

ETA: just looked up the headmaster one and I couldn’t find an episode around a female teacher commissioning a cage, fairy sure it wasn’t that, but thanks anyway for the suggestion.

Sat here with a bucket of popcorn waiting for that one guy to come on here and say ‘my wife’ and along comes the fireworks…

Who woulda thunk a community that prides itself on user choice would be mad when someone else forces their choices onto said users…

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not…

This sounds exactly like what fans and critics alike slated the last Jedi for
