I'm not from hexbear and I agree. It's absurd that we let anyone who's primary interests are in another country dictate what our government does. That also goes for China, the US, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and anyone else too. The British government should act in the interests of Britons.
I'll also note - while we're accusing people of astroturfing - you spelled labour wrong.
Why though? I've genuinely never had a problem with it. If something is wrong, it was always going to be wrong. Why is it preferable to have to write a bunch of bolierplate than just deal with the stacktrace when you do encounter a type error?
