Bloody awful in the UK, living under Thatcher and the streets awash with yuppies -- you're welcome to it.
- ElectronShak 5y agoThanks for this perspective. Had to google what yuppies were..learnt something new today.
- BizarroLand 5y agoFunny that by 80's definition, most non-trades adults living at median income levels today would be considered yuppies in the 80's. The future is here and the yuppies won.
- earleybird 5y agojust a little side note - The riot/protest scenes from "V for Vendetta" were apparently footage from the Thatcher era protests.
- gadders 5y agoYes, yuppies were terrible. All those people getting good jobs and earning decent money. Bring back 70's under Labour with rubbish piled in the streets and the UK getting help from the IMF.
