We are indeed supposedly the 6th or 7th largest economy in the developed world, (according to the 'experts' !) but years of waste under both Labour and Conservative rule, plus possibly Brexit, followed by Covid, wrong decisions being made at critical times, and not forgetting all this lefty woke nonsense that's seeped into our western life and hamstrung so much from top to bottom is all to blame as a combination in my humble opinion.
We waste so much money on lazy people who don't want to work, an ageing population that becomes more expensive by the day, and the cost of illegal immigration I'm surprised taxes don't need to go up even more.
We have had a population explosion over the last 22 years, and these are not Brits. They're aliens.
They don't integrate or assimilate, they stay in their silo's often with very different views to us, yet we're the ones who have to pander their their demands.
As a result of us being lax with allowing these uninvited foreigners in by the boat load, we now don't have enough services, housing, schools, and infrastructure to cope with an extra near 10 million people since 2000.
Ten million extra people means the population has increased nearly 20%.
Think about just how much that has affected our country.
No wonder nothing works and the roads are at gridlock (and in poor repair, yes)
Law & Order has become a joke. If your car is stolen or your house is burgled, don't expect the Police to show up, because they won't. But mis-gender someone, and they'll turn up mob handed to haul you away.
When we wanted strong leadership and vision for the country from Brown onwards, Cameron, May, and Johnson we got the exact opposite. As for Blair, it started well and ended in humiliation with stupid things like everyone going to Uni, and open borders, plus dragging us into a war that we had no right or need to join. Now look at the state of things.
A reason for Brexit not yet realising its potential was largely down to Teresa May, a re-moaner who didn't get us as good a deal as we could have had and had to be replaced.
Johnson was weak with virtually everything, including Covid lockdowns that have killed our economy and was p1ss poor on legal and illegal immigration too. Starmer didn't even mention it in his speech last week, so we know by default he'll do nothing different. Starmer campaigned hard for a second referendum to overturn the original decision !
No one has had the will or foresight to admit that the NHS needs huge reform to improve patient care and save the taxpayer money and give value for money.
We continue to hurtle towards Net Zero, which for me is a suicide mission.
As far as I'm aware no one has done any costs analysis on how much it's going to cost the UK, but it's likely to be trillions of pounds, and guess who will pay for it ? Yeah, the good old tax payer. And has anyone considered what the come back or answer will be if the world achieves Net Zero at some point and global temperatures don't fall and the weather, because we are a cyclical planet, doesn't revert to what it was before all this nonsense ?
I find it incredible that some Tesla charging stations are powered by diesel generators
Fossil fuels have helped to give us light, food, transport and warm homes. Why on earth are we pursuing this crazy line when there are biofuels from plants that could replace oil if we are determ ined to wean ourselves off of what has powered the world for a few centuries.
This country has fallen so far, that tens of thousand of anti Semitic, pro Palestine, possibly pro terrorism protesters, are now allowed to chant for jihad against Israel (for now) on the streets of Britain, and the Police stand by and watch them and make just 10 arrests.
These same sort of people ran out into the streets of New York to celebrate on 9/11 as the planes hit the World Trade Centre. They got away with it too.
The fact that nothing is done to prosecute these anti western and anti Israel supporters of hate will come back and bite innocent Brits in the months and years to come.
As a country we're pathetic, and the anti west haters know they're on a winner as we lack the balls to let them know who is in charge.
