 tl;dr for my pleebs

"Britain is still viewed as a desirable place to live, even if we worry about its decline. Restoring that greatness is what we should focus on."

"We’ve been pitted against each other as a distraction. But at the core, we all want the same things: less crime, lower taxes, and functioning public services. These are achievable goals, but only if we stop letting politicians divide us."

"The path forward must be one based on liberty and freedom. Every political decision should be evaluated by a simple question: 'Does this make people more free or less free?'" 
 Yes. As a Brit, I tend to agree. The governing intricacies are complex but it must start with asking why there is crime, why there is high tax, why are our public services so screwed stretched. Over time why has this come to be? Simple answer is the average salary no longer covers the average existence. Why? Inflation and greed. How can a job in 1999 still command the same salary as the same job in 2024? Why has that come about? 
 UK is heading into commie territory. 
 The printer and shitty politicians are to blame.
