it really depends. they're pushing for more cycling, more climate measures, more taxes on IT giants etc and these are Conservatives, the opposite of left-leaning. on the other hand, their Covid response was the same as Spain, Italy, France etc i.e. pretty bad. but they also approved the vaccine really quick, and we're getting that next week. so overall, a meh, like most other countries where I lived. as a point of reference, from the countries I lived in, I consider Singapore and Tokyo to be a notch above the rest of the world when it comes to governance. but most government of the countries i've lived in were the same as the UKs: they only react, they're politicians, they're detached from the real world etc etc
