Thankfully they haven’t locked me in the Tower of London but if they had I’d expect May to be in the cell next to me for her treatment of Parliament today. I’m allowed back tomorrow after my symbolic protest against this government, wish May wasn’t allowed back. https://t.co/S51q5O9QEt
Corbyn needs to go - he's worse than useless heading the opposition - if Labour had someone decent, the Tories would be in the dirt. But seems my right to a vote and decide things for the UK has lapsed. A shame really.
Real good thread I ran across on the Breixit UK working class vs. immigrant thing vs. elite educated, check out some of the many comments .In a nutshell, they seem to have a bigger faux news/low info. voters problem than we do because of their two tier educational system and class consciousness. The thing where you send people into "the trades" rather than force them to study civics and history and logic, that has come home to roost. And then the working class resentment of elites and vicey versa is probably exacerbated by threads like these
Had a haircut today. The woman I trusted with scissors had no idea we hadn’t yet left the EU and believed we needed to leave to prevent war refugees getting free houses.
This is the reality of the view of millions. A fatal absence of knowledge and utter disinterest in events.
