As another Brit I totally agree.
I don’t quite understand the sequence of events that brought us here, but I am convinced that we need to kick the Conservatives out at the next election at the very least.

- tailspin2019 4y agoI don’t think “many times” is an accurate characterisation. The Tories have been in power for about 12 years now. And anecdotally I feel we did a lot better during the last Labour government (questionable overseas military action notwithstanding).
- cassianoleal 4y ago> what really changed? The end of said switcheroo. The decline more or less coincides with the current Tory run.
- stephen_g 4y agoMight have changed things in 2017 or 2019. How close it was spooked the establishment so much that they had to create a massive campaign of false smears to force out the radicals in the Labour Party…

- Nextgrid 4y agoI don't think the conservatives are the problem per-se, rather it's a flawed political system that rewards the biggest bullshitter, imposes no penalties for lies, misconduct and conflicts of interest, and a term limit that's way too long so the feedback loop is extremely long. I hate the Conversatives as well and would like to see them booted out of principle but I'm not under the illusion that the other option is going to do any better long-term beyond some minor post-election platitudes.
- captaincaveman 4y agoIf we kick the Conservatives, hmmm I wonder who will be next up to bat, ohh for about a decade until we are sick of their incompetence.. goto 10. They just literally wait their turn, terrible incompetence and no accountability.
