Why is the immigration system ‘fucked’? Lack of honesty about the fact that Brexit actually reduced control.Why is the whole public service system ‘fucked’?
Lack of honesty about the fact that progressive taxation e.g. income tax will have to increase to pay for the service we all want

A self-inflicted implosion. That’s what happens when you seek to out far right the far right populists by purging your party of those more interested in practical government and public service rather than populist ideology and culture wars.

I’m no Corbynite believe me and I was as energised by the ‘97 victory as the next hopeful person but I’m also a working class council estate first person to go University in family type person and from London. So let’s be honest, embracing globalisation fucked a lot of people up. 1/2
