The British public are, by and large a pretty polite bunch and will put up with a lot. But there comes a point where enough is enough. For decades, communities have watched their industries vanish or be sold off; infrastructures crumbling; villages, towns and cities being hollowed out; basic essentials becoming hideously expensive; taxes continually going up and community spirit disappearing. Britain has been destroyed, dismantled, closed down and sold off to multinational corporations. Britain has become a fire sale of national assets and the British public have paid a heavy price. But it’s pretty clear that the British public have had enough of being treated like suckers by successive governments who are more in thrall to funnelling assets and wealth to their corporate cronies than serving those who pay their wages - the people. Our entire political system is rotten to the core and it’s time for a new form of politics - for the people rather than for corporate greed at our expense. Almost every public service and infrastructure is crumbling. Millions of people are really struggling to survive the cost of living crisis and many are slipping into bankruptcy, bad health, poverty and homelessness. NHS waiting lists are at record levels of over 7 million people facing treatment delays. Farmers are being fleeced by the supermarkets. Small businesses are going bankrupt at record levels. The high street is dying. School buildings are unfit for purpose. The care homes sector is a total mess. Utility services are completely crap, but household and business utility payments have become extortionate. But nothing ever gets done to fix any of this. Yet our government continues to spend £billions of our tax money putting up illegal migrants in hotels, issuing dodgy contracts to corporations, net zero targets and throwing money at Ukraine. And then to rub salt into the wounds, the government punishes everyone with horrendous levels of taxation and finds numerous ways to create a surveillance society and reduce our freedoms. It’s a wilful government piss take of the people they are supposed to prioritise - namely, the people who fund them - British taxpaying citizens. It’s completely unacceptable. We are paying them to repeatedly punish us, while at the same time, the biggest transfer of wealth history to the super-rich is happening right under our noses. Millions of people right across Britain are all saying the same thing right now: Enough is enough.
