We went through this with YouTube. The answer is yes. There's more than enough demand for stories that the current movie industry isn't interested in telling to sustain millions of cottage-industry movie or TV shows producers.

That isn't it. Advertisers have repeatedly shown a huge willingness to court severe controversy. They use obese people to advertise swimwear, they run ads that tell men that they're toxic and terrible. https://www.nbcne

Same back to you! You're totally misrepresenting what this is all about. It's extremely clear what's meant here: the EU is a big thing with problematic parts, and parts that are OK. Horizon is OK and uncontroversial. The UK w

Rejoining the exact same framework would mean rejoining the EU, wouldn't it? Horizon isn't the whole shebang and was never the parts that people had problems with. It's really not hard to understand this, unless you're t

Enforcement and clarity are different concepts. We don't have a big problem with courts or police declining to enforce laws because they aren't precise enough.
