Hatred, spite, intolerance and xenophobia 6 Years, 6 Months ago  
Anyone else noticing these charming human traits rocketing this year? It started with clueless racists demanding a (‘kick the wogs out!’) Brexit which got half of Britain hating the other half and has gone full circle (‘send IS Brits to Hell’!); now it’s not just trolls and far right thugs... it’s your neighbours. It’s Berlin in the 1930s.

I don't know, Titanicboy. It kind of looks that way from the newspapers.

Are your neighbours that bad?

Wealth and income are major causes of disquiet here.

Less than 10% of the UK population owns 45% of its wealth.

Over 10% have an income (including benefits) of less than £10k a year.


As a result, people get up - and rebel in a variety of ways.

Just like they did with Churchill (after winning WW2); he was discarded because people were fed up of rationing and low living standards.

Brexit too - the vote - is a graphic example of people being fed up.


In places like Huddersfield, Newcastle, Oldham, Stoke, Peterborough, Rotherham, Hull etc. - 3/4 generations of families have never worked.

And probably never will.

Live quality is dire, and the High Streets are full of poundshops and charity shops...
