Who would have thought???

Take yourself back two years and visualize this:
Our country being run by a incompetent buffoon who does not understand his own policies
Parliament neutered allowing our country to be run by a crackpot non elected sociopath who imposes diktats
The USA faces re-electing a psychotic tax evader who has told 20 000 lies since 2016
The alternative a man clearly on the cusp of dementia who barely knows where he is
Hospitals shut down by an hysterical media who base their fantastic implausible claims on lies
One million women cannot access crucial breast cancer tests because of the bullshit
The likelihood of dozens of football/rugby clubs going bust

This is our reality now how have we got here?

.its down to public support..
politicians would send hundreds of thousands of us to our deaths fighting a war half way around the world at the drop of a hat mate... so its not concern for our health..
the restrictions were put in place because of public and media pressure. and thats where we still are...there were lots of examples of .. exaggerations.. scaremongering and flat out lies...on here...

Forgetting the USA points for a moment but this is the issue with single policy politics. The only reason Johnson and the Tories got an 80 seat majority was to “get Brexit done”. Something that with 3 months left, still looks like they won’t achieve anyway.

Far Right Populist politicians are on the rise in most countries (except lovely police states like Russia China etc). As bad as people think Boris is I wouldn't swap this goverment for the far right or the far left.
Easy to see the reasons for the rise of the right, illegal uncontrolled immigration, high crime rates, obsessive Political correctness and movements like BLM rammed down your throats. Chuck a world pandemic and economic collaspe into the mix and its 1939 all over again.

You must be a socialist if you believe that.
Never accept responsibility for their failures and always try to spin it to blame others.

Labour lost because
They are a racist party
They are anti British, and the public saw through that, Labour MP Kate Green, even admitted the Covid pandemic is a great opportunity for labour (party and personal power before the country).
They treat the working/lower classes with disdain, as gullible uneducated fools who believe their socialist propaganda.
They had policies that were not believable (apart from maybe you and Josh) and involved huge tax rises for the working people of this country.
Their leaders were/are terrorist supporters.
Their leaders were/are paedophile supporters/protectors.
Dianne Abbott (she deserves her own particular section).
Their MP's are thicker than donkeys (Keir Starmers opinion of them).
They are undemocratic, Brexit proved this, as they flip flopped so much trying to embarrass the government that not even they knew where they stood on upholding the democratic vote of the people.

Thats literally been brexit for 4 years.

Shall we start a sweepstake onto who the brexiteers on here will be blaming when brexit isn't the best thing since sliced bread?
Early front runners will be the EU, remoaners, corona, and Labour I think.

Who won't be blamed.... The tories or brexiteers aka the people actually responsible. 100% guarantee that.

leaving the EU was never going to be instantly good or instantly bad.. nobody really thought this surely ?
and are you suggesting the covid crisis will have zero effect , throw a switch and the whole world goes back in time...?
we are going to struggle for years if not decades if this ever ends as are most EU countries... who on earth is going to pick the bones out of that... biased people who dont much care for balance..thats who..
