Aye, I know we are approaching the crest of the hill of struggle but that pot of gold containing the financial deals to give us the freedom to spend always seems elusive and out of reach.

Its like that frustrating challenge you see on TV where you have to remove the bar of gold from the glass case through the hole with one hand.

On TV? They that in Mall of Qatar & Mall of Dubai. I sometimes forget that we're in totally different world. How far the UK has fallen.

Every time I return home for Christmas etc, I'm so disappointed at the state of things. The garbage on the streets, the homeless people, the junkies and general ghettoization of the city centres. I'm always pleased to get the hell away from Manchester or London as soon as I have got off the plane.

I don't blame you mate, I reckon the world in general is going to hell on a handcart. A race to the bottom is definately underway in the UK with absolutely nothing better than it was 30 years ago. Successive governments managing expections Ashley style running everything down and taking more and more taxes from the people instead of doing better with the taxes they get - and expecting them to feel grateful for it. I feel Labour will do no better and that balllbag Starmer is annoying me already.

I hate to be political. It makes my blood boil. Which is why I left. I voted with my wallet, refusing to give those clowns blue/red or whatever a single pound of my hard earned money in tax.

The perverts like Stammer don't even hide it anymore, he's promoting getting an AIDS test for all? Why Only perverts and junkies have exposure to that dirty infection.

It's a Uni-Party of snobs and toffs, certainly nothing 'elite' about them, that run everything. The backroom deals with Senior civil servants who can not be removed by elected officials... How is that democratic?

People of Britain have sleepwalked their way into this mess. If they don't stand up soon, it's all over.

Unfortunately I have to agree. The frog in a pan of water analogy works well for me. People living in the UK are like frogs in a pan of warm water that is slowly being heated. The downward trajectory of the country is often not perceived. Living away and visiting occasionally is like a frog bring dropped into a pan of hot water - on arrival you notice big changes and it shocks you.
I feel very sorry and ashamed for our previous generations who put their lives work into making the UK such a great country, only for this generation to throw it all away. Sad times indeed.
Putin can smell blood. Would the people of the UK fight to defend it? The way it is now, even someone as patriotic as me would have doubts.

The enemy is not Putin. The enemy is within as usual. The people who run things have made the generations of kids, though media and the toxic education system hate Being English/British.

They teach them that we are evil and should be ashamed of our history. When, if fact our nation has benefited the world in so many amazing ways. Yet they don't get taught that. Just, Evil Empire, Slavery and that if you're white you're to blame for everything.

The enemy is within.

There are groups of people like the 'Together declaration' https://togetherdeclaration.org/ group who are spearheading the return to some form of democracy.

It's good to see that people are finally taking responsibility for things and not letting things get any further out of hand.

Time will tell how affective they'll be .
