Does your radical left club have merchandise? Because all the best radical left clubs have awesome merchandise to collect.

You're about as radical as an exponent.
I'm glad that you've established such a concern, as I've been highly dissatisfied with the performance of my ordinary right club. It is becoming more unwieldy each passing day, and its effectiveness at stunning hooligans, hoodlums, and heretics simply isn't what it used to be. Indeed, just last night I attempted to smash a window in a vehicle (my own, I assure you, to retrieve a set of keys that I had inadvertently allowed to remain in the ignition). I had to strike at least four blows with my current club in order before the offending glass would give way. My dearest wife suggested that perhaps the thickness of the glass was most to blame for my troubles, but I assured her that I rather thought not.

I would be happy to become a customer and consumer of this radical left club. I fear the my right-handedness may prove a weakness, but perhaps you purvey a similar product for those who share my handicap, antithetical though it may be to the name you have announced? More importantly, I hope that your radical left club offers a substantial material improvement over my current club, made of willow. I would hope in particular for steel, or at a minimum iron (in a curtained arrangement, if possible, so as to increase the club's strength even further). I cannot, unfortunately, accept either aluminum or aluminium, as both would simply not be cricket.

No nationalists either. Let's make this a borders and flags - free zone.
Octavious (2802 D)

Would not abolishing flags make singing songs like "The Red Flag" a tad awkward? That's the only good bit about being a leftie... aside from the girls, of course.
Octavious (2802 D)

And the merchandise, obviously :)

The left-wing Twitterati will be devastated when Crabbie becomes leader and the class jokes no longer work :p
Jamiet99uk (898 D)
11 Apr 16 UTC
Crabb?

His mother was disabled and he is from relatively working class roots, sure. I suppose it doesn't matter that he voted for a £30-per-week cut in support for disabled people, then revealed he didn't know which disabled people would be affected by the cuts he championed.

You see him as the next leader? Really? Not Boris? Gideon? Gove?
Octavious (2802 D)
11 Apr 16 UTC
Crabbie's my favourite. He's been given the cushiest job in front line politics (now that IDS has done all the difficult bits and taken all the political hits anyway), he's not been around long enough to make many enemies, his backstory is straight from the Tory hymn book, and he's Welsh. You couldn't find a better fitting peg.

All he has to do is not be a complete idiot and the job's his. Pop to Ladbrokes and put a bet on :)
Jamiet99uk (898 D)
11 Apr 16 UTC
Interesting.

How soon do you think there will be a contest?
Octavious (2802 D)
11 Apr 16 UTC
Not for a while. When Cameron wins the referendum his position will be cemented for some time. And no one will want to play the role of traitor when they know the job will be offered willingly in a few years anyway.
Jamiet99uk (898 D)
11 Apr 16 UTC

Actually maybe that merits a new thread. Wait a moment.

Results of Ukraine-Referendum in The Netherlands.
A referendum was held about the pending association treaty between the EU and Ukraine. My country is the only country that hasn't agreed yet, because of a referendum with the unofficial outcome: "no" to the treaty. Some 32% voter turnout.
I voted "yes" and the general thought is that many people voted "no" against the EU in general, with Ukraine as collateral.
Thoughts?

The Right to Bear Arms - A Repudiation
So it turns out that the right to bear arms was actually only intended insofar as the usage by paramilitary militia groups in the event of a prolonged and protracted occupation by an enemy. The modern day interpretation of our gun laws is a fallacy perpetrated by the gun lobby to keep people dying, and keep their coffers flowing.

Is there a place for Diplomacy statistics?
I've been casually reading through Richard Sharp's "The Game of Diplomacy" and he keeps referencing statistics he got from somewhere. I know the book is very dated but I was curious as to if there was still somewhere I could find these statistics and if they've been kept up to date.

Is it possible to have exactly one electron sent through an electric circuit somehow?
What I ideally want is two power sources which send one electron each at the same time into one single electric circuit, observing which route is taken (indirectly).
Thoughts on whether this is possible? Thoughts on how to do this?

How statistically possible is it to only get France or Turkey when you play on classic?
Throughout my 20 or so games that I have played, I have been France and Turkey a disproportionate amount of times. I'm not complaining, it just seems weird. In 2 recent games that just started, I drew Turkey in one, and France in another.

So I met this girl
She is moderately attractive, and plays board games. She is very close to my age and is a soil scientist. I was thinking I would play it slow and do the whole friendzone thing for a while intentionally but with an M. Night Shamalyan twist at some point and I surprise her with a new board game we can play or something.
