Farming continues to be automated. Farms continue to be bought up for way more than their worth (farmland in the U.K. goes for 100-200 times the rental value) as part of wealth concentration.

you’re in the minority of under 65s who voted to kill the economy and take away freedoms. You’re in the minority of workers (assuming you work). Nobody claimed no one under 65 voted for Brexit, just the majority. At your age in rhe 25-35 br

It’s the US that arrests people for mean tweets. When you have 3 days a year when temperatures reach 25C inside I’m not sure why you would bother installing AC. As that is changing, AC is becoming more popular.

They didn’t learn. Those That voted to leave are either dead now, or still think it’s right, but the uk was “holding it wrong”. The majority of taxpayers wanted to stay. The majority of under 65s wanted to stay.

So they’re happy to remove the rights of the woman carrying the fetus I assume that continues when the baby is born and people have to sacrifice their rights to feed the baby. Not in as extreme a way as bodily servitude, perhaps just taxati
