any religious person could simply explain evolution away as the mechanism by which a god or gods created humanity
Many did, and this position is called Deism. In most versions, god(s) started the universe with initial conditions that would lead to the formation of intelligent life, and then withdrew.
Bold of you to assume voters care about consistency or policies. For many Tory upporters in the Home Counties, southeast, southwest and east London, voting Labour would be a bridge too far. But the Lib Dems might be an acceptable alternative. There’s a reason the main left of centre party in these regions is the Lib Dems, and not Labour.
The Liberal Democrats are talking a lot about the blue wall.
These are traditional Conservative seats where they hope Tory voters have had enough of the present government, can’t bring themselves to vote Labour - and see the Lib Dems as an acceptable alternative.
That’s a great wish list, but I’m not sure how many of those will happen. Increased NHS funding is sadly unlikely given your economy and xenophobia against immigrants. I’m hoping you get increased support for green energy, free school meals and rail nationalisation, and at least a modest raise in the minimum wage. Cheap, clean energy, educated and healthy children, and an affordable and reliable transport system can do so much for the economy.
as that’s where they would go if LibDems disappeared.
Many of them, yes. But there’s also a significant share who’ll vote Lib Dem or Tory, but not Labour.

It’s a stupid system, but I don’t expect the party that got 412 seats on a 34% voteshare to reform it.
Labour lost four seats to independents running against its inaction on Gaza.
To the left of the current Labour leadership, yes.
Among smaller parties, the Liberal Democrats have gained over 60 seats, and Reform, the Greens and Plaid Cymru have also gained seats. Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, now contesting as an independent, retained Islington North. Labour lost another three seats to independents who ran against its inaction on Palestine. The SNP and DUP suffered big losses, while Sinn Fein’s fortunes seem to have remained unchanged.
Doesn’t that already exist in parts of the US? I know the UK and Germany have it.
The new law does grant draft immunity — for police officers, prosecutors, judges, lawmakers and senior government officials
The usual suspects. Angry old men sending naive young (wo)men to die.
It’s big enough that not all of it will burn up. And you don’t want the debris to hit someone.
Mint works. Most alternatives don’t. I can install Mint on a total newbie’s system, and not have to worry about something breaking two weeks later. Hell, most newbies can install Mint if you give them the USB.
On a deeper level, I think Mint devs are one of the few teams that understand the ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ philosophy.
What about equally high tariffs for petrol / diesel from anywhere, equally low tariffs for EVs, and subsidies for cycles and public transport?
Sorry, I meant Canadian warships.
The emissions saved from removing a few hundred ACs are negligible. But the message it sends to the millions watching the Olympics is significant. Which, again, is why I am hoping there will be at least some symbolic action against rule-breakers - it will start a conversation about the need to regulate / ban ACs.
They compete for oil buyers. And Russia is close to Iran. Pretty sure Saudi is acting out of self-interest here.
