You really believe that putting these communist losers in charge of everything will fix things? Lammy insulting Trump etc? Instead of burning clean coal (for which we have 200 year reserves under our feet) they want to create this enormously expensive "state company for green energy" costing many many billions. They want to means test the old age pension. They want to tax Shell and BP who may as a consequence de-list, so I ask you: what is the point of working and saving money?

      @lacdirk 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      There were no savings. Brexit has led to a 40 billion reduction in government revenue (because of a 100-150 billion reduction in the size of the economy). So there's less money to spend.
      We also need to spend tens of billions on new paperwork (split between government and private sector). Immigration needs to be higher (because it's a less efficient kind of immigration) and costs more.
      And that's without even talking about the loss of personal rights and freedoms.

      @lacdirk 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They can't, really, because they don't stick to the rule of law. The whole point is that hierarchy determines who is right, not the law.
      That means that a treaty with an autocratic nation isn't worth the paper it is printed on.
      Most of the progress since WW2 has come on the foundation of binding international legal systems that make treaties more reliable. Without that, you can't build big, reliable alliances like NATO or the EU. That would not be a complete disaster for very large countries, like the US, China, India and Russia, but it would be for smaller countries, including the UK.
