I suspect the government is flooding ever more immigrants, legal and illegal alike - into the country to keep wages down, rather than leave the paris accord to stop energy prices spiralling out of control, the way they have… We could have even been less frosty towards Russia, and bought some cheap energy from them - but no…
Theresa May - demolished what remains of our power stations, making us totally dependent on EU imported Energy, mostly from France.
Surely a total folly, unless one intended it as a “Punishment for voting Leave”…
Cameron - didn’t have a contingency plan, should this country vote Leave. He quit rather than saw Brexit out to the bitter end.
He gambled and won that the Opposition - wouldn’t pick up the “lethal weapon” Brexit Gauntlet and remove the Tories from power with it, as actual Eurosceptic Corbyn could and would have done - had he not been bullied by his own backbenchers to “support Cameron” in Remain, in a similar manner to the way Keir Starmer supports Boris Johnson, instead of being an effective leader of the opposition… A lot of Diehard Labour voters - are pretty ■■■■■■ off with that, although I am not one of them of course…
Now we have Boris Johnson, getting elected with a full majority on a “Get Brexit Done” ticket - who then swings to the Center, quickly loses his “Token” Chancellor, and seems to have totally de-Right Winged the Home Secretary in short order… I was one of those who thought that “Surely Priti Patel - would rapidly increase the list of deported persons - beyond compare?” - but no. The Conservative Party has quickly moved to occupy the gap left by departed Cleggy’s Libdems in 2015 and onwards… I dunno what wisdom makes him think that a party we’ve so solidly rejected (Me among them this time around…) could possibly represent a “third way” of politics, where Right Wing Labourites and Left-leaning Liberal Tories - are the only way to keep the establishment in power overall… A sad symptom of our first-past-the-post system that, which at one point - risked an election result in this country akin to the 2016 one in America… I’m talking about “What if Corbyn had won in 2017, because of the Brexiteer Public’s rejection of Remainer Appease May’s policies and lack of getting anything popular and useful done during her short tenure as PM…”?
We are where we are though.
It is Eastern Europeans who’ll decide the next five years of this country’s future, I strongly suggest…
If they return home En-Masse, the Euro still too high to make “sending some back to the wife” viable for them - the shortage will extend to the EE community, and this “Driver Shortage”, alongside other shortages - will really gain legs…
If they decide to stay here, and all become the very dragon’s domains that we’d surely like to see the back of? (Umbrella accountants, Agencies, Acting Managers, Estate Agents, Landlords, Builders, and of course Politicians) - then there’s no hope for us home-grown Brits, other than a prosperious retirement, whilst Final Salary Pension Payouts - last.
