I looked into it and looks to be a hoax but do your own research. Funny ad all the same as the real joke is that is not an unreasonable goal and why have we not yet? Would be nice as the current homeless response is a lose lose for all parties.

Loose loose. So very loose

Ahahaha. Oops.

For the party (and currently government of the UK) "sponsoring" the fake ad, directly murdering homeless people by chopping them in half would be pretty on-brand, they pretty much kill them off indirectly with legislation already and disparage the homeless in the media all the time.

I agree that halving homelessness would be of benefit to everyone, but the Tories don't particularly care about benefit to anyone apart from themselves and their masters.

Really?

Conservatives don't actually want to murder homeless people by sawing them in two? But killing homeless people is a great idea?

[–] Tavarin@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, they're saying housing homeless people is not an unreasonable goal.

[–] Pipoca@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

That would be "cut homelessness in half" or "cut the number of homeless people in half". That's very different from "cut all homeless people in half", which would be bisecting each homeless person. This is clearly a joke about conservatives being heartless monsters, right?

Or is this a dialectal grammar difference between UK and US English?

How did someone think this sign was a good idea

How did someone think this sign was a good idea

It was written by an immigrant with a low IELTS score. That's why they sent him to Rwanda straight after.

Yeah that last bit was irrelevant

The way they're treating the middle class and the poor class and just individuals in general... I wouldn't be surprised 🤯😯 if they did that.

It's not the world that's cruel...

You're trying to get me in trouble. I'm laying next to my wife who's sleeping and I'm struggling not to lol. This sign is hilarious!

Is this the same plan that made homelessness illegal?
