All this is symptomatic of the inevitable decline of the West. No discipline, no punishment, too much welfare, a health system that undermines any sense of personal responsibility, floods of migrants from cultures inimical to ours, a concentration on rights over responsibility, a whole panoply of people I know who work helping the losers rather than engaing productively. The absurdity of our system was summed up for me when last week the BBC sent a reporter to some God-forsaken dump in South Wales where he seriously solicited the views on Brexit of some woman with several kids who lived on benefits. Madness and things will only get worse. The Ukranians have the right idea.
