    UK is really embracing their status as a third world country emerging market economy, they've added going though unelected leaders like tissues to the list now. Apparently they're going to add rolling electricity blackouts next with the energy crisis.

    Feel sorry for all the working class people stuck on that island

          There's is a big Gurkha veteran population in the Brecon beacons. Maybe they could teach us some stuff. I know that's where I am heading when the revolution starts. This is seriously not a joke. That is my plan. Also, momos.

        Hey the UK is trying to claim chicken tikka masala as their own food, they're working on it. And I'm sure there are comrades eager to form Maoist splinter cells, though at the moment all they have are the just stop oil and extinction rebellion ops

        does anybody understand british political system well enough to tell me if anything good could possibly result from this or is this just all part of the plan to make the british peasantry grateful for BoJo coming back in to save the day? I remember reading there can't be an actual fair election for like another two god damn years, it's pretty much a free reign for the Tories until then.

    so glad to be alive to watch this terrible island nation that’s completely dependent on the developing world lose all international credibility

    hopefully China can set up a refugee program or something to get the good people out before it completely collapses

    It only took the Tories' ramshackle leadership and useless tomfuckery to push towards a potential general election and not Labour aggresively decrying the years of calculated wealth inequality entirely caused by austerity measures, social cutbacks, and the near-fatal deterioration of wages and living standards.

    Because that didnae fucking happen.

      Labour are basically just the janitors of the British politics. Some suck up and try to be the ruling Tory establishment, those that don't are derided and quickly put back in their place by it. And being in power consists of coming in to mop up the shit and put out the fires our rulers spread about and started, just efficiently enough that the establishment can come back in the morning and get back to work doing it all over again, but worse.

        The UK has had 70% conservative governments since its founding.

        It is the sick cranky man of Europe.

          And a good chunk of the Labour ones (which make up less than the other 30%) was barely distinguishable.

            Politicians work best when they are scared of their voters at least some of the time.

            UK needs to up its ability to riot.

              Due to an unfortunate series of events a number of years ago, I ended up desperate for ANY reading material and read lots of things that I normally wouldn't choose. One of them was a book called Watching the English, written by an anthropologist about English behavior. It ended up being more interesting than I expected, though I've forgotten most of it. Only one thing has really stuck in my memory from the book, and that's the author's example of the quintessential English protest: "What do we want?" "Gradual change!" "When do we want it?" "In due course!"

    Those anglos can't seem to govern themselves. I'd ask the Indians and Irish to help civilize them, but they shouldn't have to bear the burden of governing a worthless rock

    She already accomplished what she set out to do (kill the queen and crash the economy), so she has no reason to stay in office. A modern Cincinnatus.

    the collapse is imminent. the monarchy should evacuate to their remaining colonial holdings, canada and shit like that. the symbols must be preserved, the crown must be preserved. the box where Liz is should be evacuated as well, and for the love of god don't let maggie's grave fall into the hands of the enemy.

    liz started the revolution and the UK is going down.
