I wholeheartedly agree, but whilst I feel deep sympathy for all in this country that are now suffering the ramifications of 14 years of Tory governence and all the corruption, privatisation, squeezing of the poor to benefit the rich/mega corps etc that has and is STILL going on, the truth is it's the government and situation the majority deserve. Enough voted for this party and for Brexit, even if they didn't vote the current leaders. The British public ultimately let either xenophobia, fearmongering, ineptitude, racism, slick ultra wealthy pretend we're for the people when we're actually for the rich; politicians, billionaire owned media rags and their non stop propaganda and divisive tripe (ones that are STILL the most popular today), continually hoodwink them. Not just regarding Brexit, which has been an unmitigated disaster, but also with the elections and Jeremy Corbyn, who was likely our last semi viable chance of real change within this period of history, hence the establishment tore him to pieces. I say this as someone who's fairly financially comfortable (though Tories are trying their hardest to stop that), would have been less well off under Corbyn, and far from agrees with all aspects of what he encompasses. Ultimately we needed Corbyn's genuine zeal for nationalisation, wealth re-distribution, curbing the establishment and big business stronghold, cutting tax loopholes, anti-war and anti-military industrial complex, re-investing heavily into national services etc. But alas the plebs believed all the vitriol about him; he's a terrorist sympathiser, anti-Semite, he'd leave us broke, vulnerable, there's no magic money tree (although there ALWAYS is for when the Tories want to waste or steal tens of billions) and so on. In its place we instead got the party that has nigh on ALWAYS been about big business, privatisation and re-distributing wealth from the masses to the already super rich. We're also now in a position where Labour is basically just a different shade of blue under Keir, and when nothing will actually change to any tangible or necessary capacity whichever party leads. The reality is, the British public as a whole didn't deserve Corbyn or greater political change. We made our bed, now we're laying in its dirty stench. And what's sad is there's so many who still blame it on "immigrants", "Muslims", "insert minority here" and not the corrupt establishment and politicians, whom siphon orders of magnitude more wealth from the public than migrants, the poor, needy, or minorities could even get close to taking. As I always say, this quote is as true as it ever was, especially so for the UK, just substitute "colored" to also include all minorities, migrants etc. /Long rant.
