It's a case of matching psycho-dramas. On second thoughts, the USA's is probably worse. At least, ours is mainly in-house.

No accidental deaths for you to post a moronic comment about recently? You must must be so disappointed.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Vote for Reform. Change has to start somewhere. Labour might sweep in this time, but they are going to win no matter what. Neither main party deserves a vote. If we don't vote for change and sow the seeds for the future, then we will never get it. It might be futile to expect any politician to keep their word, but our only power is our numbers. We need to use that while we still can.

Fully agree. As you know I strongly oppose our policies on immigration but if that's going to be a policy then you need house building and ownership to match it. Landlords are taking advantage of a situation created by government that reduces the general success of the next generation....the fact that far fewer of them get to own a home is a scandal....a betrayal. I genuinely think government of every type has been completely irresponsible on housing....well, pretty much all my adult life. They have used rising house prices as an easy economic income and pulled the ladder up for young people...pure short termism. If you're going to increase a population massively in a situation where people are dying much older then build the frigging houses and infrastructure for them. It's enough to make you go spare. When I left school, you would wait a couple of weeks for a council house or flat if you needed it. You would get an operation, see a doctor or dentist for free whenever you needed it. There was no problem with school places, you chose where you wanted, within reason. Seems like a completely different world now. I feel like I'm going to have to support my kids forever. My mum used to kick us all out at 16 - which also seems unreal now. It's not that kids are necessarily lazy, they wouldn't be able to afford anything anyhow. The difference in house affordability vs wages is probably unbridgeable. Perhaps communism would sort it. But I guess that f***s me with my spare room - I'd get a family of workers or two, or a bullet or two in the head. In fact, it's almost definitely the latter for me as I'd be problematic. I think it is suffice to say that Labour are not anymore interested in the basic issues than the Tories so it will never be sorted without something radical. And that won't be reform either. Politics was always a con but it's also just a joke now. The normal person is disenfranchised. The people who think they gain are actually losing but are too complacent to see it.

No, Reform are not the answer, even if you agree their policies. We have had almost 5 years of the Brexit right of the Tories in charge and what a shambles. To have the worst elements of that governing us is unthinkable. Insufficiently competent to run the world's 5th economy. You'd be nostalgic for Truss. Similarly the Greens. I am with them on a lot but as prudent stewards of the national purse? Protest party, like Reform, and nothing more. The Lib Dems have actually shrunk since Clegg and offer only a coalition bulwark against the loony right of the Tories or equally loony left of Labour. I will vote. I always do. But..?

We haven't - that's largely been the problem.
