But the main thing... UK generally is deteriorating when compared to Ireland and it is getting a lot faster...
@Tommy Tainant knows the Irish got Cheltenham every year... We have seen this once prestigious town slowing go down hill... Cheltenham used to be way ahead of Cities like Limerick and Galway (same size in Ireland)... Now roads and pathways are kept to same standard, shops are boarded up, pubs are empty half full on Festival Week.....
That is Brexit.... Thatcher has a lot of blame to take and it what she did that got people worried and wanting change. Farage & Co managed to spin the blame of Tatcher polices (which decimated the North and Midlands) on the EU... It was marketing not truth...
Nine years later the British are well aware that EU wasn't the problem and actually might have been trying to assist UK if they wanted to stop it...
The same could be said of Reagan polices, they started the income gap in US... The winner takes all policy and to be a winner you have to work harder and be ruthless... Then everyone worked hard but discovered they are still loosers... The GOP sold a lie to blame Democrats (and minorities, LGBQ, immigrants, women,....) . the game was always rigged and even though they got you to work harder in a game you already lost...
MAGA is them getting angry and still blaming Democrats & Co.. Trump the entitled is telling them they need to give up more (Medicaid and other social programs) for more tax cuts for the rich....
