I honestly think this lot could be even worse than Thatcher's mob in the 80s - the stripping and selling off of absolutely everything, the ideology-disguised-austerity cuts, the almost gleeful attacks on the weakest members of society (the unemployed, the poor, the disabled, immigrants). Meanwhile lining their own pockets....
Just thinking about what this government are doing makes me genuinely furious.
It's not necessarily just the government that are making it so bad, it's that a lot of people seem to be totally willing for this to go on. People who'd rather let sensationalist corrupt tabloid media do their thinking for them; being critical of
human rights legislation simply because it applies also to people they don't like; support for what they're doing to the welfare system because people should "stop scrounging off the government".
The future could be very, very bleak.
