Britain is broken.
This isn't the place to debate it, but we're currently a rudderless, borderline second world country.
It's going to take a generation to recover (let alone thrive) from what the last decade of flagshagging idiots have done to this once great country.
- dragonwriter 4y ago> This isn't the place to debate it, but we're currently a rudderless, borderline second world country. You are teetering on the brink of alliance with the Soviet Union? (The first/second/third world thing originally referred to cold war alignment: first and second were US and Soviet spheres, third non-aligned; later first- and third-world got adopted as synonyms for “developed“ and “less developed”, but second-world is never used in that economic sense.)

They've little interest in looking at making people's lives better, they only seem interested in personal grievances
