Most British people have been slowly crushed by 45 years of neo liberal economics. Its sucked the vitality and investment out of every town and village as the country deindustrialized and turned into a hub for casino capitalism in London

I imagine the Brits were happier before Thatcher arrived.

The poverty is extreme in some places. Even moreso just people's demeanor. Lower class is degenerate in the way that they both hate what's happening and do everything they can to make it worse by voting for right wing parties fueled by xenophobia as all they feel they want to control is their own living area and what else but a paki or a wog to blaim

I'm following the count binface saga for a bit, let's see if something happens there

I won't pretend to know the answers but I will say British folk are usually predictable to a t. Fancy clothes, handbags for men and vitriol for breakfast
