    You say this like the Conservatives give a shit that their plan is going to plan.

    They aren’t here to lead, they are here to loot.

      At least you’ve had some respite. Since the crash in 2008 you’ve had Obama and Biden in. Breaks from the awfulness of conservativism.

      It’s just been so fucking grim here, year after year after year.

    That’s it. That’s the Tory mentality. They don’t want to improve people’s lives, they simply want to rule.

    If it helps, here is what Kansas did: went bankrupt, thought about it, then decided to do it again. Thought about it some more… well you get the drift.

    What a time to be alive! Actually probably all times are this way, but climate change does put a bit of a new twist on that old theme:-(.

    The UK is on the same track Italy started on 30 years ago, only we’re going to speed run it.
