I can say almost first hand that the UK benefit system is viewed as a business by all religions and creeds including our own. It's borderline insanity to think that they come here for anything other than healthcare, housing and financial fiddles there's a complete industry based on educating them on how to claim, which medical claims can't be proven for disability benefits, it's ridiculous when you hear what I've heard regards organised groups working massive numbers . Also heard some London borough has to spend 70% of it's budget on child and social care, that says it all. How can that be a working system. That's why I feel we're fecked because if the government doesn't want to stop it and a large proportion of the population wants to maintain it then how does it end? I think society will collapse and the third world will take over these isles. Maybe the Muslims will inherit it , and people will look back at it as the death throws of democracy and western ideology, most people in reality are too busy making ends meet or raising kids,paying mortgage and bills rent etc to plan a revolution or whatever the @gnasher16 plan might be if it's not accepting defeat? The world keeps spinning I guess. Maybe there will be an extreme swing to the far right and we have a Hitler's Germany , brought about by the ultra liberal path that brought us to this point but isn't that what our proud nation fought against in ww2 . 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Borr 5,680 Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 A bit cliché, but simplifies the cyclical movement of society , "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.” I think looking back at recent British history there are lots of major turning points , most if not all have been at the hands of politicians. I don't think people realised the importance of heavy industry on society. It was the major employer but more than that a huge social fabric of sports and social clubs , music , and brought with it hope and jobs etc. it's loss imploded the areas it existed , Wales the north, unemployment, drugs and crime, immigration hubs . Telesales. Anyway history now. Globalisation, selling off heavy industry, EU , Internet,BBC and bias woke media and with it a lack of decent role models for young men and women mass immigration , illegal immigration, NHS the list is endless . A good start to a new beginning would be all illegally entering migrants removed immediately, a minimum of five years of proven NI contributions to receive state benefits including NHS unless paid for by insurance. A national education program promoting British values in all schools. Promotion of British products within Britain, training incentives for desirable trades and professions. A reduction of student visas and a greater number of places for academic working class . Once the economy is back on track if it's not bust , the huge investment in a futuristic national transport infrastructure, all disused railway lines to become cycle paths , mass compulsory purchase of land for pedestrians and bicycles, anyway that's enough for one night haha. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
