Aside from the cruelty of this, I’d just like to know why it’s ok to ignore and disappoint liberal/progressive voters.
Why do governments chase Farage and his voters, thinking that will neutralise them. It’s NEVER worked. He’s leading in the polls and his ideas have ruined us. WTF are you doing?

The alienation of young people can be blamed on Covid, phones and much else. But those are exacerbations. The real cause is rent exploitation in all its forms. It is neoliberalism that is destroying the lives of young people. And that is why it has to go. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11...
Young people are alienated by neoliberalism

The collapse of the UK was hastened by Brexit, but it's been coming for a long time. Destroy the public sector and hand over water, energy etc to the profiteers. Then, as Starmer is doing, flog off the rest of the UK to billionaires. Started with Thatcher. It's called #Neoliberalism. Read this!
